I have in the last few days asked Nestle Co. why you can't buy a block of Nestle Milk Chocolate and their answer was, it is not sold anywhere in the UK now because there is no call for it but it is obtainable in other countries......after about 80 years!.

Hi Northern Lass

You can still get Caramac (yummy) but not not many shops sell it now. :(

It is Opal Fruits that get me - my children reckon they are the only people of their age who would know I was talking about Starbursts!!

And what about Opal Mints - have they found a new name for them too that I haven't spotted yet?
