I used to love Opal Fruits, but I can't remember what they're called now, so I haven't bought any for years... :-(

# it's not just the names of the things I miss
the bars were bigger, and the wrappers were much much easier to open because they were paper based so would tear easily, now everything's gone plastic sometimes they're a real bitch to open

# Pffft
Stupidest rebranding ever. I pointedly call it Kif now.

# Apparently...
Well I heard somewhere that Jif was rebranded because the Spanish pronounce J's differently?

Can anyone confirm this?

I think it's harmonisation of international branding or some nonsense like that
