Didn’t there used to be little chocolates called ‘polka dots?

A bit like minstrels or treats.

Are they still on the go?

(The ‘minstrels’ could dance with the ‘polka dots’)

It is indeed polka dots, and a fashion I have always disliked, along with gingham.

The guy on TV should have been corrected, unless it was a pun that went misunderstood.
Definitely POLKA DOTS!
My guy and some family play poker and I've never heard of poker dots.
