Not seen it around for ages. It used to be a staple when hillwalking back in the seventies.

A quick google says it's still made, I'm going to send off for a selection pack.

They sell it everywhere (well not quite). But every out door type shop round here (Chester) does, even the new big go outdoors. If you go the lakes, they actually do sell it everywhere.

Still my first choice energy bar in any type of event. Had a couple of squares before swim today in fact. Romneys remains the kink of Kendal mint cake IMO. I recently topped up in Aldi!!

It makes for a great emergency energy food, as it just sits there never being eaten by choice. I've left one in my car for years and it sorted me out of a post-ride bonk.

Anyone remeber the Not the Nine O'clock news sketch, with Rowan Atkison wanting to "pool the Kendle Mint Cake with one trustworthy person"?

It's just pure sugar isn't it (with mint as well, obviously)?
