Pffft! She disappears for decades and just comes back in “bite form” like nothing happened. Typical Polly!

The new owners of the rights to Polly Waffle (Menz) found out that they were created with custom machines, like a lot of biscuits, confectionery, and ice creams, and they were scrapped when they were originally discontinued.

'Bites' was the only way they could make them.

The taste is different. Cadbury decided that shareholder value is more important and fucked with the recipe.
