Title: Rocky 'Robin'
Post by: wjp666 on April 26, 2009, 04:00:17 am

forgive me if this is common knowledge, but i don't personally know. so i'm hoping someone can fill me in.

bought some Rocky choccy biscuit bars the other day, and i noticed my gf was calling them Rocky Robin's. then it occurred to me she has ALWAYS done this but i've though nothing of it before. then bells started to ring... it sounded familiar. it said only Rocky on the bar... so why didn't this sound out of place?

does anyone know if they used to be marketed as Rocky Robin bars (as the gf is now insisting)? or if a robin or something was used to promote them? or is Rocky Robin something completely unrelated? or are we both just insane?

any help would be, err, helpful.
