a lot of chocolate on your biscuit join our club."

Was the advertising jingle for club biscuits when I was a kid. They were right too. Chocolate so thick you could sink your teeth in.

I had a Club biscuit for old time's sake this morning. The chocolate was thinner than the paint on a Ford Cortina

Mars Bars are a lot smaller too. And "old days" Wagon Wheels were so big you could use them as a spare on a real wagon.......

(Not to mention Marathon Bars not being called Snickers... )
