Hi Chris,

I remember the Caravan chocolate bar very well as it was a favourite of mine when younger. It was originally manufactured by Rowntree’s which was then of course taken over by Nestle’. The PS Bar is made by Cadbury’s and is nothing at all like the old Caravan from what I remember as far as the taste and textures are concerned and was as far as I’m concerned oh so much more delicious! The bar was not very thick either but had alternating layers of chocolate, wafer and caramel and seemed to be a lot more chewy than a PS Bar however you can’t discount the effect a little nostalgia may have in enhancing the overall memories either.

When last did you hear about a caravan,it was als a chocolate upon a tyime and seem as if the new “PS chocolate”as far as I can remember replaced the old lad “caravan”!!!I think it changed around 94 when apartheid ended and so they’ve also killed poor caravan and as name changes went into action this old granny became “PS” lmfao

For the answer on the Tex chocolate bar I brought two at the Matilda service station Mango Hill Queensland on the 27/10/11 and really enjoyed them.They were the time I brought them like a big size time-out.Someone should contact Nestle`s and find out.

It here anywhere in the UK where one can buy Tex Bar chocolate. I normally get mine from SA.

Tex Bar is not a copy of Time Out. Tex Bar is a good chocolate that’s been around for decades (formerly Rowntree when it tasted better) and tastes and looks a whole helluva lot better than the crappy Time Out.

Timeout was released in 1992. Tex has been in SA for at least 40 years. They are a great snack chocolate, light and enjoyable. As said Tex, Aero, Kit-Kat, Chocolate Log and Bar-one by Rowntree and then Nestle were the best selling counter line chocolates. I am amazed that Nestle have not tested them out elsewhere, it would be a relatively cheap as the product is developed and if nothing else the around 1 million South Africans in UK will buy them.

IS it unhealthy to eat more than 5 Tex bars a day
