Anything produced by Swizzels Matlow is food for the gods. Except Black Jacks.

When I was 11 I bought a 10p Stinger bar which contained no fizzy bit in the middle. I was encouraged to write a letter (including the last 1/16th of the bar) and let them know. My mates took the piss until a large box of Swizzel's finest turned up at my door. I will never hear a bad word said about them (Swizzels, not my mates).

Parma violets are horrible. Black jacks and fruit salads rock.

Food of Kings.

As said, anything by that company is FTW.

There was a craze at school for pushing stones into Mars bars and then sending them off hoping to win a boxful (not me I hasten to add). I think they twigged eventually.

Parma Violets are like eating flowers.

Refreshers are/were much better.

I have to be in the mood for them in all fairness. It's one of those sweets I won't get cravings for yet it will jump out at me when I see it in a selection pack or in a shop.
