      Modern wine gums don't resemble those of old. They are softer and wrap around one's teeth more.

            Thanks for the update. It's probably these fancy new wines we have nowadays!

              And it doesn'tseem possible to get hold of the harder Orozo licorice sticks either. Society's gone soft, I tell thee!

                I don't mind either, can't eat much of the proper stuff as it's sickly but I always want to go back for more. As for the chocolate covered jelly version I like that too, carefully bite all the chocolate off before eating the "Turkish delight"

                  Turkish Delight has really split the vote on here. I have and always will be in the love it camp.

                  Liquorice Allsorts are great but not too fond of liquorice on its own. Anyone remember liquorice roots ? A bit like eating twigs but I liked them. Used to able to buy them at the chemist's.

                      Those little tiny violet things. What were they called? I thought they were Midget Gems, but now I think that's something else.

                          Midget Gems are a top of the Premiership treat.

                            They always smelled like the inside of a lady's reticule.

                                Those ultra-sour candies? They're like a face-puckering rollercoaster ride through flavor town. They're the kind of sweet that'll make you question all your life choices, especially when you hit that peak of sourness. But hey, to each their own, right?
