i agree with comments made by alison. As a life long chocholic brought up on many great choccie products from the 50s onwards in the uk, i concur also that flyte is what the original uk milky bar tasted like. i also agree that mars wasted the milky way by making it sickly and cloying with that horrible ‘white’ (ok we know it’s name’s “milky” way) stuff, so I’m just glad we can still get flyte bars….as a postscript, what’s happened to good old Britain…we’ve sold our heritage for “a mess of pottage” (biblical quote) by that I mean we don’t own and manufacture any of our great british companies and products any more e.g. confectionary, Cadbury, Rowntrees, Mackintosh etc, cars, Morris, Austin, MG, leyland, Radios and TVs…Bush etc.

The reason you think that these taste a bit like the UK Milky Ways is because they used to be the Uk Milky way.

When the Flyte Bar came out, they changed the recipe of the UK Milky way to make them creamier and whiter, allowing the Flyte Bar to have it’s own new place as a lower fat bar in the market.

Anyone who used to love Milky Ways in the eighties, but find Milky Ways now to be too sickly (like I do), should have one of these and the memories will come flooding back.

Saying that, I havent noticed Flyte Bars around for ages and I am wondering if they have been discontinued, does anyone know? Or am I just shopping in the wrong places?

Giggles: I was talking about the UK Milky Way, not the US one (which is equivelent to our Mars Bar)

“But in reality it’s just a slightly choclatier Milky Way (that’s 3 Musketeers if you’re in the US)”

Actually, that statement is incorrect. The Milky Way has a ‘ribbon’ of caramel in it…the 3 Musketeers is just the nougat.
