Texan Bar

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

As a kid I pulled out two teeth (admittedly already loose at the time) by chewing on a Texan Bar! It was chocolate-covered nougat which was virtually impossible to bite through. Kids loved it, dentists/mums hated it!

    Gavsta, i know ist 5 years later but i remeber being given some dinosaur stickers when i bought a Texan bar a a kid out with my parents. Promotion maybe..? seems odd it would be dinosaur stickers and not wild west. definatley a Mighty Chew nonetheless

    One of these bars took a filling out of my teeth during a holiday in Weston-Super-Mare in 1976ish. Jeesh but they were damn chewy.

    'Bite through the chocolate and chew. . . . . . Real Slow. Someone should have told him a texan takes time to chew.' That was the voice over to the mexican firing squad ad! Loved it.

    Tim Vine (the comedian, recently on Comic Relief Fame Academy) was recently interviewed in the The Independent. he said his happiest memory was recently finding a box of Texan bars in an old fashioned newsagents. He bought the lot and are now stored in his freezer.
