Milky Way

[smugbabe]

Does anyone remember what a REAL Milky Way tasted like before they fiddled around with the recipe? Was it the same stuff they use on the bottom layer of Mars Bars?

as far as i can remember milky ways always had a white inside.

[jills]

nope, sorry sylviak, but they were not always white. They used to be much more brown in colour and, as smugbabe suggests, alot more like the bottom of a mars bar. not sure if they were the same, but similar. I've stopped eating them since they changed (which was years ago now), they just aren't the same!

I think they were a lot thicker than they are today but not quite as thick as a Mars bar.

Mars bars have changed as well. They are much lighter in texture then they used to be.

flyte bars are like the original milky ways and you get two in a pack lol

Milky ways just aren't the same now. They had that lovely brown whipped centre but now it just tastes too sweet and sickly. I just won't buy them now because they taste vile. Kit kats are the same. I remember how they used to taste when made by Rowntrees Mackintosh but now that they are made by Nestle they taste awful. Far too sweet and milky tasting. Why do manufacturers have to take tried and tested products and mess around with the recipe ? Is it to give it their unique taste ? It quite clearly doesn't work.

I remember the old one's,but can you remember the "TEXAN" bar?

We've done Texan. ;-) What about the early 1970s rival to Milky Way - Super Mousse?
