Life became more difficult recently when a phrase from an old British TV advertisement popped into my mind, interrupting my train of thought and ruining my day.
The phrase: "hidden hoard of hazelnuts." It was a pitch for an English candy bar, making the rounds on ITV in the last 1960s. But which candy bar? Not Bounty; not Milky Bar, Cadbury's Flake, or Fry's Crunchie. From out of the past this question haunts me.
Readers of this blog (if are there any) know, or should know, that my interest in hoards is limited to coins, treasure, pirate gold and the like. But this hidden hoard of hazelnuts thing is a horse of a different color. I have searched here (UK Television Ads, 1955 - 1990) and here (CTVA UK - TV), and elsewhere, all to no avail. I welcome assistance from all quarters in untangling this mystery.
