Monster munch is a great example of shrinking-ness, how big were they when you were a kid, you had to eat each finger off before you could eat the rest of the hand, now they are less than bitesize!

How do you know it was supposed to be baccy? what is it a baccy type box?

I may be showing an unhealthy interest in this but i'm strangely interested in what mysterious items you ate

Noticed the other day that Texan Bars were for sale in Shell garage. Remember them in the 70s? They're very small now too! If it's to combat obesity then I'll just buy 5 bars instead of 1!
