Whatever happened to... Star Bar?
It may have been the original star bar
Fudge middle loose peanut halves pressed onto the outside and about 4 inches in length, the wrapper was brown celophane - I remember that because I used to look at everything through it!! writing may have been yellow or orange on it and it would have been the mid to late 70's even very early 80's....

Star Bars are still widely available. Used to be in a brown wrapper, but now red. Had one at lunchtime today!

Just as an addition to the above, the original Star Bar was renamed as Boost Peanut and added to the Boost range, but when they dropped the original Coconut Boost, the Peanut version was rebadged back in to Star Bar.

I live in Northern Ireland and we can still get starbars. Sometimes sweets are tested in an area to gauge the response and if it is not good they are taken off. N.I. must have eaten a lot of starbars as we did with salt and vinegar peanuts. N.I. is deemed to be a perfect test area for a lot of stuff.
