I thought I saw a Star Wars chocolate bar the other day, but it turned out to be a Galaxy, far far away.

,In this time of austerity and cuts, someone in the carncil still has time to harass people handing out free chocolate.

Here's my test rule for sexism. Replace "women" with "blacks" and see how you feel.

"The Yorkie team applied to give samples, but they did not inform us they would only give them to white people,’

Is that really ok with you?

(yeah, it was 2004, and they were being "satirical", but why would you get away with excluding a oppressed group "satirically" when you are actually trying to sell something, and not hold a mirror up to society?)

Yorkie: new ad campaign
The brand will this weekend (4 June) roll out a TV ad, by JWT London, using the new tagline "Man Fuel for Man Stuff". The comical clip depicts men as behaving like "superheroes" when carrying out simply everyday tasks, with a character carrying his entire supermarket shop from his car to the house in a single attempt.

In the old days (we do sound like a bunch of old farts) chocolate bars were much bigger, and made with better, tastier ingredients, and were big enough to constitute a meal in one handy wrapper.

Speaking of which, weren't chips tastier when wrapped in newspaper?

A pale and tiny modern imitation of a Curly Wurly

Far shorter and thinner than the original, and also softer and less chewy

(PS did you know that the Chomp bar is in fact a compact CurlyWurly........)

Loved ration packs.....

Even up into the early 90's they still contained Spangles!

I think though that the advertising would not work these days:

That's what I love about CC. Every day is a new fact, a new revelation to enrich our lives.

"Your sense of smell and taste change as you age. Between the ages of 40 and 50, the number of taste buds decreases, and the rest begin to shrink, losing mass vital to their operation. After age 60, you may begin to lose the ability to distinguish the taste of sweet, salty, sour, and bitter foods."

You're an old fart, you just can't smell it.
