I remember them well, the crests were Edinburgh, Kent, Gloucester and a couple of others. They tasted like malted milk but were bigger. I think they were made by the same people

Lipton supermarkets in 60s and 70s, Victor Value, I think took over from them. They sold a lot of things no one else did. A bit like the Aldi of their day
