Could you bring these bottles back to the shop and get 10p or 20p back?

Where did the healing myth come from anyway? Was the same with flat 7Up, that’s another I remember; was there even the tiniest thread of truth?

I wish they’d make proper lucozade. It was never a cheap soft drink anyway, and it was never really meant as an alternative to, say, Fanta.
So stop using artificial sweeteners etc, just give us the full whack glucose infused lucozade. I want it when I’m sick but this new shite, forget it.

I was only thinking about these recently. How far the Lucozade brand has moved from those days! The royal warrant prominent on the label too!

I’m not sure what the weird plastic wrapping around the bottle was supposed to do

Apparently Enerzade by Todd’s drinks is an alternative to the old formula lucozade. I’ve never tried it but heard its good. https://toddsdrinks.co.uk/

Wow – that’s a blast from the past. I remember spending a lot of time in crumlins childrens hospital as a kid. Visitors used to bring in bottles of that. I remember the plastic wrapping crinkling. Haven’t thought about that in years!

The cure for absolutely everything…
Ahh, the 80s cure for every possible ailment.
But why the wrapping?
