In the pub last night and a heated debate broke out about what is the worst thing you can from the sweet shop. Personally, hands down Parma violets closely followed by Turkish delight.

Splicer
Splicer is Nicer
No it feckin wasn't
Caramac ice cream :hide:
ferrero rocher
Liquorice. Reserved for people who either have the tastebuds of someone living in the 1940s or contrarians.
By far the most sickly confectionery I can recall is Caramac. Makes me nauseous just to say the word. Not too far behind was a Bar Six, which is like a desiccated version of KitKat.
Unlike the the OP I love Fry's Turkish Delight. Very moreish.
Never been a fan of Marathon/Snickers or Milky Way bars, but the suggestion above reminded me that it has to be liquorice - how on earth does something tasting like that qualify as confectionery?
Fruit Gums are just teeth destroyers and offer nothing.
Dont mind liquorice except those pink and blue ones covered on hundreds and thousands.
F uck ing any kind of fudge ! Horrible stuff, like stale toffee
Pear drops
Wine Gums, horrid lumps of plastic.
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.
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?
Chocolate limes. how the hell did they catch on?! A lime flavoured boiled sweet with a soft cheapo chocolate centre :puke:
Am I the only person on God's Earth who remembers a chocolate bar from the early 60's called Bliss. It was about the length of a Picnic with about 6 segments. Each segment had a creme and walnut filling. I was gutted when they were discontinued.
