Limits

Limits was a range of cardboard-tasting slimming biscuits. Even the added flavours did nothing to conceal the fact they were proper diet biscuits. They were available in Mint, Chocolate, Orange and even Cheese flavours. And for those who wanted to lose weight, Limits were intended as meal replacements for two meals a day, in the same was the Slimfast works today.

    I tried them in 1971. Every day, I ate 2 or 3 biscuits from the packet, plus a glass of milk , instead of a meal,3 times a day.You could also have a bar of Limits chocolate instead I stuck it for 7 days, but on day 8, I just looked at the packet of biscuits and ate the whole lot for breakfast. End of 'diet'.

    After seeing the post about Ayds slimming toffees, I remembered that my dieting sister also used to get Limits and just as Ayds were 'sweeties' in my child's mind, Limits were 'biccies'. They were revolting, tasted strongly of vitamins and minerals and had a horrible texture, but once again, when I was desperate, they filled a void!
