The books went out of print in the mid-to-late 1980s after a fire at Studio Publications apparently destroyed all the original artwork, and the brand name only survived as a range of yoghurts. These had been launched circa 1981 to coincide with the launch of the television series, with Mitson's characters as well as a few non-book characters such as Jenny Cherry and Charlie Chocolate but by the 1990s had struck out completely in their own right retaining only the logo and a few character names.
The brand did enjoy something a resurgence in the UK during the mid-1990s, largely thanks to a popular TV commercial for the Munch Bunch "pot shots" range (a petits-filous type yoghurt aimed at the young) set in a pool hall which ran from May 1994 until February 1996, although this renewal in popularity proved short-lived, and only three of the Munch Bunch characters were featured in the "pot shots" range. A completely different series of Munch Bunch books was published in 1998 by Ladybird Books in the UK to tie in with the yoghurts following the resurgence brought about by the TV commercials of 1994-96. Denis Bond and Angela Mitson had nothing to do with these and the characters were different although a few were similarly named e.g. Sally Strawberry.
The Munch Bunch yoghurt brand name itself nevertheless still continues to this day under the Nestlé umbrella, although it is now almost completely unrecognisable from the 1980s and 1990s, with the "fruit and veg" characters having been dropped completely and replaced by a "cow" mascot named Munch.
flatmate, that is at least the third time in three days you have listened to that particular rock arrangement of the Pokémon battle music on speakers
My grandmother has an eccentric friend that swings by every couple of days and watches the TV (often with the sound off) for hours, making sporadic loud comments. The living room where the TV is also happens to be the only place where I can currently have the computer.

I went to the worst website in the world; where awful people congregate. All of them blights on humanity, crudstains on the world. The whole place was essentially a contest as to who could be the worst sentient being.

I wonder what the baby of Stormfront and Flat Earth Society would be.
As far as I know, the Flat Earthers are normal people outside of their belief in a flat earth. I have no problem with people who think that atoms and cells don't exist, or who think that the sky is pink with green polka dots, or who think that there is no such thing as californium.

haha, wow
i guess the effects were pretty good for their time, but that's still surprising
...that's really bizarre.
i'm worried this one is going to give up at any time
it's boiling hot right now
They kicked me out, saying "No professionals."
the worst website in the world is actually forbes.com
i'd be hesitant to say it was the absolute worst because the Internet is not to be underestimated

kind of an extreme example but yeah
Though you are probably correct.
Dark Souls and Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs both borrow from Aztec mythology, and are both good games.
Therefore more games should borrow from Aztec mythology.
but then
these are things I agree with
