Purple Lolly

[Art_Vandelay]

This is not a euphemism.

Not sure whether this should be in food and drink, so mods, feel free to move it if you so desire.

Can anyone remember the name of those purple/lilac lollys that you used to be able to get. They had a texture inside similar to that of Edinburgh rock but a bit denser. I've looked for a photo but can't find one.

Allow me to demonstrate with my unique skills on MS Paint what the lolly in question looked like.

Sure you're not getting confused with your girls "special drawer" contents?







nuts-just noticed the "NOT a euphemism" point

Not those, although it has been a while since I had one. In the picture the lolly is a sort of tongue shape, lilac in colour with a stick similar to that on the Matlow swizzles.

Rocket lolly

Google images throws up wierd stuff for lolly (was this the reason for the question )

[Art_Vandelay]

It isn't an ice lolly, more the sort you'd get from a sweet shop. I think they were 20p.

[Art_Vandelay]

Surely someone must know what I'm on about!

How long ago could you buy them and what flavour were they?

I'm not sure how long ago, 10 years ago maybe. I'm only 20 and they're certainly a fairly recent memory. As for the flavour, it's hard to describe but they were delicious! My brother thinks it was blackcurrant but I'm not 100%.

They were really nice!

That website is amazing, I'm off to buy some chocolate nibbles from the newsagents near my old school

Haven't found the lolly yet but I fear a lot of my money will be wasted on sugary treats now
