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 bars

"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.

go jeanette!
We've just found out that one of our customers is competing at the Olympics!

Jeanette Kwakye, the British 100m champ no less, stocked up with her favourites from A Quarter Of... before she headed off east.
How cool is that?
You can read more about Jeanette at the Olympics in her Daily Mirror blog here

Soor Plooms… absolutely delicious and very very fruity – these Soor Plooms are made by hand, and the flavour is… well… exceedingly plummy! They’re also a stunning bright green colour… just as a traditional Soor Ploom should be!
