Nutty Bar

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Nutty bar was my absolute fave. It was in a clear brown wrapper with orange writing and the bar itself was a sickly log of creamy fudgey caramel covered in peanuts that were sometimes stale.

There was extra fun to be had by eating each nut off then shaping the fudge with your unwashed hands before eating it and feeling truly sick.

    Used to love Nutty bars! BTW PAYDAY bars are the closest thing that I have found to Nutty bars.. but, the fudgey / caramel was coated in SALTED peanuts, if I remember correctly (haven't had a PAYDAY bar since the mid 1990's).. I used quickly run a PAYDAY bar under a cold tap for a few seconds to wash the salt off..lol
