I keep getting Cadbury Caramilk adverts forced upon me. Caramilk is a mere pastiche of Caramac which tastes amazing and unique. A shame.

Mind you, I still miss Callard & Bowser Butterscotch. And I've found this which purports to be a reintroduction of it: https://www.partridges.co.uk/butterscotch.html
So maybe Caramac will return...

You can get decent blonde chocolate that's way better than caramac anyway.

Yeah, but is it Caramac?

[dinny_g]

A chocolate bar I have never had and so, won't miss...

Word!

It’s like when people say that this soup is better, I don’t care, I want Heinz Cream If Tomato, I don’t just want a good tomato soup.

Dave!

There's far too many better things than Caramac out there, I can't remember the last time I bought one.

@mik I think we need to establish a poll to understand whether any of these supposed Caramac lovers have actually bought a bar recently... because if not, they've only got themselves to blame.

Haven't bought it since I was a child tbh but I'm going to rush out and panic buy a ton of it, as I'm sure that's not the marketing plan at all.

It's caramacesque

[Jobbo]

Ah, like the distinction between Arab and Arabesque.

Who's going to run the island ferries now?

The Caramac Marketing Dept, last week:
"We've got a problem - Stock control are saying that no cunt is buying caramac because it's for old weirdos who smell of piss"
"OK, well, we could try rebranding it. We'd spend millions giving it a Gen Z refresh"
"Nah, that's less money for dividends for the directors - lets just say we're cancelling it, and all the weird nostalgia freaks will clear out the inventory. Then the board can decide if they want to bring it back, but with a lower production rate"
"You're a genius. Pass me another line of chang, my heart rate dropped below 130 for a moment there and I need to have something to give me a buzz while I suck all the joy of the world, like the moral void that I am"
"Here you go, have a bump off the key to my seven bedroom house in Cheltenham that I only bought to piss of the neighbours and impress the board in a desperate attempt to feel something other than hatred of myself"

[Mito Man]

Never heard of it until today

[DeskJockey]

Isn't it a ferry company up in Scotchlandshire?

[mik]

Isn't it a ferry company up in Scotchlandshire?

That’s Calpol silly.

Oh. That explains a lot.

[integrale_evo]

Don’t think I’ve had one for 25 odd years.

They better leave Gold bars alone though, I will start a riot if they get cancelled

I bought some Gold bars recently. I think they’ve shrunk.
