Who remembers these?
They were a real treat & very popular amongst kids in the 70’s, partly I think because of the quirky name & also the caramel taste. It was basically caramel coated popcorn, but marketed extraordinarily well. Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs were known for their bizarre packaging, which featured surreal psychedelic artwork & a whole lot of guff about the product which didn’t make any sense! I remember the original box being dark blue/purple coloured. Superb marketing of the 70’s!!
I was reminded recently that each box in the 70’s had a toy inside! I’d completely forgotten this but now remember it vividly! The toys were pretty dam good too! I used to urge my mum to buy these and was so excited when I saw a box in the pantry.
Anyone remember the plastic Bugglies that used to be free in each packet?
Here is the old box packet from the 70’s in an magazine ad
WHere? id Love to see it
Does anyone have images of the old boxes? I remember them from childhood…
You can find the same product at Costco outlets. It’s called Clarkes caramel popcorn. It’s not quite the same, but it’s also really, really nice!
I used to love these!
… and you always ate too many, then felt sick. I recently bought for my children [young adults] and they did not like them…. all the more for me then!
“You can still buy them”
“The film was shot at night and the director in the morning” used to make me laugh.
