Treets (including toffee and nut treets), before they became Minstrels.
Country Style (biscuit and raisn chocolate bar … yum ! )Gambling Only Pays When You're Winning
The assorted retro websites largely have it that Treets became M&Ms, likewise Peanut Treets Peanut M&Ms. Confused now…

They are wrong. M&Ms are a fraction the size of Treets/Minstrels for a start. I remember quite well the adverts proclaiming the news that Treets would now be known as Minstrels.

Five boys chocolate. Similar to Fry’s Cream, but with five diffrent coloured segments instead. Very popular in 60s and 70s.
and whatever happened to… the wee lime centered barrel in Cadbury’s Milk Tray. A scandalous decision to withdraw it without good reason.

Ordinarily I wouldn’t try and compete with the treat that is a crisp sandwich, but I’ve just knocked up a bacon (fat browned and crispy) butty with some leftover stuffing and it was extremely satisfying.
Ice Cream or a bacon roll.
No sauce or any other shoite, just plain and simple.
.. starving btw.
All depends on time.
Snack A Jacks Salt and vinegar (or these ones I tried recently which were nicer). For speed and calorie they are pretty good.
A TUC biscuit with a slice of cheese, washed down with a cold coke.
Toast
Cheese On Toast
Cheese and beans on toast
Chicken and Mushroom Pot Noodle.
Chicago Town Takeaway Pizza (the one that comes in a gey box and bakes in the oven)
Chicago Town Takeaway Pizza (ideally the one that comes in a gey box and bakes in the oven), but with Green Chillis (not jalapenos) and bits of sliced turkey (or chicken) dipped in Reggae Reggae sauce added on top – The pinnacle of good snacking.
Alternatively: Snacking by budget
Whilst working on building sites in my youth, many of lived on a staple diet of Space Raiders, Chomps and Mr Freeze Ice Pops. However, under Gordon Brown, Space Raiders have soared from 10p up to 25p, and I think Chomps were 15p or 20p last time Iooked, and Mr Freeze has probably went under.
Only last week whilst walking back from the pub and calling in for a kebab, I thought about getting something to eat to get me home before starting my kebab. This is when I discovered the magic of Onion Bhaajis and Chilli sauce (obviously both of those are variables dependant on the quality of the kebab shop however).
Marmite on a doorstep of thickly-buttered white toast. The jar and label themselves are something of a style icon, and a 2lb catering jar adorns my dressing table.
Staring transfixed at a bar of Bournville then ripping the wrapper off and compulsively hogging it down
gimme the simple pleasures
1 Ciabatta halved…drizzle with olive oil and toast lightly.
1 can baked beans…cooked till piping hot with pepper and salt.
Spread beans over lightly toasted Ciabatta, grate chedder cheese on top and throw a few torn basil leaves on top if you have them.10 minutes, heaven on a plate.
Space Raiders, what great taste you have Bulwark.
Only the red packet though the beef flavour, not so keen on the green packet. Wham bars were great aswell although the dentist didn’t agree.
Blackbeard to conquer the World
Bacon roll, no butter, tomato sauce or tomato sauce flavour crips in a roll/two slices of bread (no crusts) with tomato sauce or warm toast spread with honey with a banana sliced on top.
