Varieties of the original Toffos

Toffo was a British brand of toffee, produced by Mackintosh's. They came individually wrapped, in a roll, and were available in plain, mint, and assorted (apple, strawberry, pineapple, banana, and mint) flavours. Its advertising slogan was "a man’s gotta chew what a man’s gotta chew". Production was taken over by Rowntree's in 1969.

Toffo was discontinued in 2005 before being resurrected by Nestlé, in a small 19.2g tube, produced in the United Arab Emirates.
