h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

THANK GOD!!! Someone else remembers Pacers - I thought they were some sort of distant hallucinogenic dream.

why did they stop making those beauties - mmmmmmm yummy spearminty chews - I used to try and bite them along the lines to eat them.

Rivalled only by spearmint Mojos (in the light blue/green paper)

Following extensive testing as a child, I can reveal that the green stripes tasted exactly the same as the white body of the chew.

It was quite fun to eat the wrapping papers too, partly because they picked up the super-sweet spearmint flavour, partly because they lasted longer than the Pacers themselves, but mostly because it horrified my parents!

I also remember pacers. However I also seem to recollect that they were called Opal Mints prior to being named Pacers. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Oh! I remember Opal Mints - are they called Pacers now?
I also LOVE Lemon Curd - sort of rhymes with absurd and heard
