thats sick AL

disgusting... what were they made from

I don't know Joe. All I know is that they were in a little black and red box and they were sort of cuboid and tasted LOVELY!!

Cough candy - it worked!!!! Used to make me cough!

Spangles 'Old English' were my faves!

How about 'coltsfoot rock?'

Al.

P.S. If we're going down the drinks road also, my fave was Dandelion and Burdock.

Here's one for you silver surfers.

What was the first 'flavour' of crisps to appear. Meaning - a breakaway from Smiths Crisps with the little blue salt bag?

Was it:-

1. Salt and vinegar.
2. Smokey bacon
3. Dried fish and balut
4. Cheese and onion

SPANGLES...Yes came in different flavours, used to like the cola ones.
I remember, there was a flavour called "Old English", came in a black packet...not so nice.

ooh I'd forgotten those! (even though) they were my favourites. Were they liquorice or aniseed? (or both?!)
Sherbert pips were great too.

And yes, Al, Lucky Bags, I got one every Saturday evening when my dad went to pay for the papers we'd had delivered. They always had those rock hard, pastel coloured sweets in them - didn't like those
