Old Sweet Names

[Fast Road]

Just for a bit of fun and to get the grey matter working

Can anyone remember any sweets that have had their names changed ?

I can only think of Snickers - was Marathon, and Opal Fruits - now Star Burst

Not sweets but Oil of Olay was Oil of Ulay.

I remember when blue Smarties sent you psychotic and Play Doh was tasty...those two might be related.
