I had shrimps and bananas last week! And I remember when curly wurlys were long and had much thicker chocolate on them too.

Loved Tooty Frooties, great flavours! (Sure there was a mint version too?)
As for Jelly Tots, about 20 years ago my mom bought my nephew a family bag of Sour Jelly Tots, he didn`t like them, so she gave them to me, and i ate the whole bag in one go. Later i went for a pee, and my pee was day-glo green like anti-freeze! I bet any kids who ate them must have been climbing the walls hyped up on E-numbers!

Did anything else go green?? 🤣
Nooo, just the pee was enough, it was as if it was radioactive! 😂

Sugar mice! They were literally solid sugar in the shape of mice.... it's a wonder any of us of a certain age have still got any teeth left!

So true Wildflower! Especially considering the dentist equipment when we were kids! I showed a 20-something workmate a picture of a 60's/70's dental surgery, he said it was like something out of American Horror Story Asylum!
