i don't recognise the name "pacers", but i remember my favourite sweets (along with fruit salad and blackjacks) were exactly as you describe - like mint chewits, but sold individually in green & white wrappers - so i can onjly assume they're the same things!

:drool:

LOL. Oh my sweet cherry pie, Pacers. You must go in the new quaint little sweet shop up the side of Maccy Ds in town, it's like stepping back to the 80s, my friend and I stocked up before the cup final the other week, it's fabtastic, we too were big Pacer eaters. RIP PACERS.

I know these aren't chocolate or extinct but does anyone eat herbals and are they a Midlands thing? When I took them down to London once no-one had ever heard of them- weirdos

Can you still get Lion Bars? And should we raise the name change of Marathons again?

ah, apparently i was misinformed.. bally good job, i say - biscuit boosts are the shiznit, dawg

interesting fact: Boost was initially launched as a tough, coconut and caramel bar, coated in chocolate (in a red wrapper).. it was then relaunched in an a further two variants: a peanut butter version ina yellow wrapper, and a biscuit version in a blue wrapper.. the coconut version is no longer on sale, while the peanut variant is now called a Starbar..

Boosts rule. I've no idea why they discontinued the two best ones though (peanut and coconut). Starbars have been around forever surely!?

Lion Bars and drifters and Yorkie. They all rock my choco world

This was better than any sweet or chocolate when I grew up. Anyone from N'Ireland will know it.
