The *other* Twix Flavors and Tan M&Ms

They went the same place as Crystal Pepsi. Whatchamacallit bars went there too, but they managed to escape for a little while.

Crystal pepsi? What's that?

[Bungleau]

Precisely, SomeGuy. It was such a roaring success that it has completely disappeared.

Somewhere in the mid-1990s or so, Pepsi came out with Crystal. I don't even remember what was supposed to be different; perhaps it was clear, like 7-Up.

Anyway, it died. Big time. Horribly.

Hey, what ever happpened to Jolt:Cola???? we had it back in Roxby Downs(South Australia) but I cant find it anywhere here
I have seen people mention it quite frequently.

Ahh... Jolt... All the sugar and twice the caffeine I remember it from my university days, when someone in the dorms was building a wall of empty Jolt cans. It was quite large, and quite impressive...

Jolt is still on the web, from a quick Google search... and they now offer Jolt Espresso, too [img]smile.gif[/img] They've got a locator to help you find the Jolt distributor near you, so you can find a place to get some

That is the best description I've seen of those white ones! LOL

You know, I dont think I ever saw any other flavors of Twix bars.

Most of these chocolate bars I've never heard hide nor hair of them, maybe they are tested in USA, if they are a success move them overseas, UK etc.

Ronn_Bman - Cooo-oookie Crisp! We have them in UK, not sure if they are the same...
Picture of them Here!
well, not the actually cookie crisp, the cereal box

Hey thanks for the link Bugleau [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] , but I dont think I will order softdrink over the internet, they have a nice site though, and it told me where I could find it, but there is none around here though

My pleasure, HiveTyrant. I'm not sure what their process would be for shipping overseas, especially to Oz. I mean, you can't ship in a simple knife... what will they think about all that caffeine?

They had a huge international on-line vote and they decided purple should be the new M&M color. In my entire life (since 1986) I have NEVER seen a tan M&M... Only dark brown... Blue was added in 1992 with the "I got the blues'" advertising campaign. And now they cover the entire rainbow spectrum. I'm glad they went with purple, they could have actually gone with a permanent pink or sky blue M&M @_@... that would've been terrible lol... Nobody wants lighter colors we want all the pigments covered [img]tongue.gif[/img] It's logical...

Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Purple and Brown as a mixture of all of the above...

The only two M&Ms I havent seen made into characters in commercials are purple and Brown... I've seen Jazzy Blue, Manic Orange, Classic Red, Somewhat slow Yellow, and the sexy green? What is it about the green ones anyway? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
