Hi, great site, full of nostalgia! Well done. One question though, and hopefully one that you may be able to answer… Have Curly Wurlys shrunk in size over the years, or is it just that our memory of this wonderful confectionery has been distorted with time?
Yes, they were about twice the weight they are now. They were thicker & 3-4″ longer. In the mid ’70s, I used to buy one on my way back to school after lunch every schoolday. They cost 3p.
