Agree on both counts. Can't seem to find an orange Jacob's Club these days. They are the biz.

Asda at the Jewel have orange, mint and salted caramel Clubs.

Sad times.When they downsized they seem to have lost a bit "bite" and crispiness :-(

Had a wispa the other day and there was more bubbles or they were bigger or something, was like eating fresh air with a hint of chocolate.

Apologies, its the Yorkie biscuit bar thats going and not the original yorkie

Chocolate giant Nestle has announced it will stop making two of its favourite biscuits to make way for a new product.
The Breakaway and Yorkie biscuit bars will disappear from shelves following a decline in sales, the company

Gutted to hear about the demise of the Breakaway. Favourite chocolate biscuit by far.

Are Jacobs orange club and McVities orange club not the same thing? You can buy the McVities in just about any supermarket out there.

Well, I’m almost glad my gran didn’t live to witness this outrage.

First the Uniteds (blue originals and the oranges) and now the Breakaways. Proper staples of trips to my gran’s.

They just need to get rid of glass bottles of Irn Bru, tins of Heinz tomato soup, plain white bread, strawberry tarts from Baynes and coal fires and that’s it all gone.

Yeah, it’s sad. Shrinkflation.

It’s now physically impossible to have one. You have to have two.

Gold Bars and Orange clubs were staples, but only for a select few weeks every summer when my brother and I made the pilgrimage to Shetland. Grandad had a fishing boat where they would be broken out at lunch time with his magical boat coffee. Nothing better. When we got older it started getting a wee tot of brandy as well. Enhanced boat coffee.

Ffs. The punchline to my favourite joke:

What's Kelly Clarkson's favourite chocolate biscuits?

Breakaway.
