Banjo chocolate bars

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

Banjo bars were about in the late 70's/early 80's and were just about the finest sweet I can remember. They came in two varieties: Roast Nut (blue and yellow wrapper) and Coconut (pink wrapper) but Banjo bars sadly vanished some time in the mid 80's :(

    My ex boyfriend was digging the garden a couple of years ago and he dug up an old Banjo wrapper, still more or less intact! Ooooo I can still taste Banjo's! Weren't they hazelnuts though? They tasted better than peanuts!

    OMG I used to love Banjos. I remember they came in a red packet and a blue packet too. Who made them? Maybe we can do a cadburys Wispa and get them back on the shelves.
