Yummy

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Leckerschmecker was a chocolate bar that was sold in the Federal Republic of Germany and Austria in the mid-1970s.

The product was woven like a hunter's fence closed at the top and bottom , about 30 centimeters long, 4 centimeters wide and 0.5 centimeters high. There was caramel under the chocolate coating . Frank Schäfer describes the bar in his book I'm gone: Forays through pop culture as follows: "The" gourmet "was a soft caramel lattice glazed with milk chocolate the size of a 30 cm ruler"

Gourmets were wrapped in white waxed paper. The “Leckerschmecker” logo in orange and blue and the chocolate bar were printed on it. They cost 0.30 DM . Tasters were advertised with the slogan "Tasters never stop - delicious, tasty, tasty [2 swallowing noises]" or "Tasters tastes so tasty because those who enjoy tasty tastes longer".

Others

Jürgen Reulecke describes in his book Generationality and Life History in the 20th Century that the chocolate bar for the children of the 1970s is a symbol of this bygone era, so that the target group for an Internet forum is addressed with it: “Am I the only one who? reminiscent of a sticky candy called Gourmet? "
