I believe that this was invented by my grandfather, Mr Frank Pullar Senior, and that he was told that it was a silly idea since nobody else was making such a product.
I never saw packets of these in grocery stores. I only saw some of the remaining packets in a shed on his orchard.
Grocery stores sold similar packets of mixed dried fruits produced by other manufacturers.
