Golly bars definitely haven't aged well.

With their collectable interlocking sticks, the poor man's mecanno set.

Some great ice creams there.  Forgot Bonanza.  Tasted like a Snickers ice cream if I remember.  Why did they all disappear??  The ones int he shops now are sh*te.  You have Magnums or Soleros or some poxy yokes.

Does any of the Holmestead products exist anymore?


I remember Holmestead Cola was 25p in the late80s/early 90s.

Are they not just what Snickers used to be called, with the exact same ingredients and all?

Like all softdrinks of yesteryear, it tastes like sh*te since they removed all the sugar and natural fruit juices and replaced it with artificial sweeteners and flavoring.

Used to love an ice cold can of Lilt or Club Shandy on a hot summers day.

Yea they were sold to Quakers and renamed Honey Puffs with loads of the sugar removed. Along with most soft drinks niw, just not the same as back in the day. Corn Pops another quality cereal from back in the day.

Horrible when something you enjoy is taking off the market. 

Likes of HB and Tayto, etc. could make money and create fun fan interaction if they did temporary product ranges voted for by the public on what they should bring back, while also gauging the appetite to bringing back the product permanently.
