Ah yes Sue R, the little blue packets of salt, sometimes they weren't twisted together properly and the salt ended up all damp. They weren't sealed packets like the ones you get today. I remember the very first packet of flavoured crisps sold, they were OXO flavoured.

I don't remember them so I don't think you can Emma, they did start to remake then a few years ago and still do today, I often buy them.

I don't remember any of the British candies from my childhood.  LOL

But I do love Jelly Babies.  There's a British store not too far from the house that sells them, but they're pretty pricey.
