| Do You Remember... Chelsea Whoppers? | | This was one of the hardest sweets to track down so far. But we did it... and ours are thicker and richer than ever! |

| whatever happened to texan bars? |
Remember the advert on TV? A Clint Eastwood style cowboy in a spot of bother, captured by some sombrero wearing outlaws. One asks the cowboy, "A last request gringo?"
The cowboy asks for a Texan bar. He chews on it laconically (love that word!) and it takes him so long to eat it that the baddies fall asleep and he escapes! |
 |
"Texan... sure is a mighty chew."
Texans made a very brief, limited edition re-appearance in 2005 but we fear they have now gone for good. |
