I remember the advert they had to introduce the new name. One of the pretend names they discarded was "Laser Licks".
I like that one.

I'm glad to see the original flavours are coming back. I wish they had never combined lemon and lime.

So do I. I loved the original lime flavour - but I love the new blackcurrant flavour too so can we keep that??

According to the article you'll still be able to buy Starburst during the promotion, so it looks like we can Big%20smile

Not too bothered about Opal fruits. They always had a funny after taste for me.
But I wish they would bring back spangles. I loved them.
