I used to love them long twists of sweets ,toffee flavour and with a choc centre you could also the the barley sugar one.

and them everlasting strips that were flat and stretched for miles when soft.

well worth a visit motowngal,it ischocolate heaven there along with another chocky outlet in the same area:)

There was a chocolate bar which had a minty honeycomb crunchy filling I think they were called "anytime bars"
You could get them in the late 60s and 70s.

Good Morning Joy, sorry to hear you are mourning the demise of sago.
You have now given me a new goal in my life to achieve the finding of sago, both tinned and dried.
To be honest, I did not know you could not get it anymore, as I am sure I bought a tin of Ambrosia Sago Pudding only last year in M*******sons, following a thread that someone put up about tinned milk puddings. Looked in the cupboards and can only find Ambrosia Tinned Tapioca, but I am certain I had bought a tin of sago, as I like it.
I will now make this my life's misson
