It seems to me that sweets seem to be half the size now. Maybe it's just because I'm bigger but I dont think so.

Wham bars definately are. They used to have a planet on the back with some facts and figures and were easily twice at wide with loads more fizzy bits in them.

It used to take me about 2 hours to eat one. Infact i think more often than not I got bored and chucked it away.

Mintolas were my fave. And Spangles.
