I saw Bertie Beetles for sale in a service station in Nelson Bay recently - a sign of general (non-Easter Show) availability? - Maebmij 01:48, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
What's a 'showbag'? 81.6.240.140 21:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
The comment about them being withdrawn from general sale in 1970 is false. I remember them as a kid available in supermarkets until at least 1984. From memory they came in a pack with a tin-toy "clicker". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.222.30.27 ( talk) 00:10, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
Image:BertieBeetleShowbag.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I deleted the reference to coconut in the following sentence: "It was created as a way to use up pieces of coconut, and honeycomb left over from the production of their Violet Crumble bars." I couldn't find any reference to coconut being included in Bertie Beetles, there's no good reason why coconut would need to be "used up," and the ingredients listed further down on the page do not include coconut.

Regarding the text in the section 'First production' that Bertie Beetle "was sold in shops until 1970, when manufacturer Nestlé entered an exclusive agreement with 'Showbag Marketing' to only sell the chocolate at shows and exhibitions in showbags", I challenge the accuracy of this statement on a number of grounds:
While it is not disputed that for a period Bertie Beetle was not available for sale in shops [b], the evidence available reinforces the position that Nestlé was not responsible for any decision regarding this product as claimed in this article, a position shared by other websites [2] that have compiled their information from sources other than the Wikipedia article.
I therefore propose that this section be reworded and this error corrected. Blammy1 ( talk) 15:20, 3 September 2020 (UTC) 3 September 2020.
