The Marathon chocolate bar is set to make a return - 18 years after it was re-branded Snickers.Makers Mars have now re-registered the name as a UK trademark as part of what looks likely to be a re-naming and retro revival of the sweet.
In 1990 the name Marathon was ditched in favor of the bars international brand name Snickers.
Cadbury started the craze for relaunching nostalgic sweets with its limited introduction of the Wispa. Mars has also announced plans to bring back another former favourite, Opal Fruits.
About bloody time! Now all I want is coconut boost.
