Drifter is a chocolate bar. Drifter was launched by Rowntree's[2] in 1980, consisting of a biscuit wafer with caramel layered on top. The bar is now produced by Nestlé following their takeover of Rowntree's in 1988.
About
90 million bars are produced each year,[3] but are becoming increasingly hard to find in most parts of the United Kingdom. Amongst its advertising slogans, it has been referred to as "the chewy chocolate bar that you really have to get your teeth into."
In 2007 Drifter was discontinued by Nestlé before being reintroduced in May 2008, enjoying a similar act of nostalgia as Cadbury's Wispa bar.
McFlurry
In June 2011 McDonald's introduced a limited edition Drifter McFlurry which was available from 15 June until 26 July 2011.[4]
