I'm guessing that's pretty much the same as a battered Mars bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of the pubb fries. Even the hot fries can be a little difficult to come by these days, so I've had to learn to like Tom's hot fries.

That would be a good start I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k-train Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 I have a vague recollection of the Twix commercial. That song is by a band from California called Yello.Who remembers the commercial for Reese's where the dude sitting in the balcony of a theatre drops his chocolate into the guy sitting below's peanut butter? The chocolate I could almost understand, but I always wondered who in the **** actually takes a jar of peanut butter with them to the theatre.Anybody remember Bonkers?
