Who remembers McVities Gold bars?

grimtales1 · 21-12-2012, 22:08

These used to be around in the 80's/90's, I quite liked them

They were a biscuit bar with some kind of butterscotch/caramel sweet covering which I thought was really nice at the time (kinda like that old Caramac bar I guess), I bought some from Poundland the other day and thought they were still pretty nice

They were quite sickly iirc, didn't know they still made 'em.

I liked them. If it is within your power and reason for the thread. Do bring them back

I like them as well but they're too fattening and addictive. I just tend to avoid that area of the supermarket in general..

Ohh they were so sickly...just thinking about them makes me feel a little sick

Anyone remember Trio's?

Gold bars can still be bought in Sainsburys. My mum loves them and will devour them by the multipack!!

Iceland still sells them too, bought some yesterday and amazed there are a couple left in the fridge this morning

They are quite sweet and sickly I have to say, but I liked them when I had them the other day - I just bought another pack of 9

Loved the trio advert!!

Haha I hope you have snaffled the last of them away.

grimtales1 · 22-12-2012, 15:17

I also loved Fox's Classic bars - you can still get them but theyre tiny now!

louise1966 · 24-12-2012, 09:48

You can still buy Gold bars, but not Trio. I used to love Bar Six, wish they would bring that back. And United, remember them?

dezire · 24-12-2012, 10:03

Cabana Bars were the best - they should bring them back!

Christian_Grey · 24-12-2012, 10:03

What about breakaway bars, do they still sell them?

grimtales1 · 24-12-2012, 10:15

Yeah you can still get Breakaway bars I think.
I once got one that was actually just solid chocolate, no biscuit

They can be bought in most places - Asda and Tesco both have them in stock most of the time. I get them as treats for myself from time to time.
