In 1972 (aged 10) I found a joke in a packet of bazooka joe (remember those?). Anyway, the joke was "I'll give anyone £5 who can solve my problems" - The reply was "I will, where's the £5" - "That's the first problem" - I sent this to Whizzer and Chips and they published it and sent me £1.00 (for every joke published)

Getting back to the original Caramac i find its one of the few confectioneries that actually tastes better now than in the distant past.Mars bars for instance used to be delicious treat but the one's nowadays taste simply orrid.
|
|
By:
Will try and find one next time I go shopping.
|
|
By:
I always thought caramac was an attempt to make a milky bar on the cheap and never getting the ingredients right
|
|
By:
Had one the other day. Was quite nice but I prefer a milky bar.
|
|
By:
Milky bar is very popular, even with the younger generation, they all eat it! Me, take it or leave it but if I had the choice it would always be Caramac.
|
|
By:
The colour put me off, that sort of beige off whiteness like it had gone off, I always expected to find a hair in it
if there was nowt left in the school vending machine Id have it but Fruit toffos were the first choice |
|
By:
we like the caramac, bit sickly after the fourth bar mind
 not seen starbars, nutty bar or penny toffee logs in good while |
