Dinkel,

We don't have "candy" in the UK. We have "Sweets".


I like the new Mars Delight rather too much.

, black Jacks


1) Steal empty pop bottles from back of newsagents
2) Take said bottles to newsagents to get deposit
3) Amass 4 shillings
4) Buy black jacks: 4 for 1d, or 192 for 4 shillings
5) Eat the whole lot in less than an hour
6) Teeth, tongue (& probably poo) go black
7) Never eat another Black Jack in next 36 years

Soor Plooms. Very Scottish and an acquired taste (like biting down on a lemon) but a 1/4 of these always did the job.

They look like those german licquorice cats, bitter and very nice.

I'm with you though, kids and adults love it so...

Rhubarb and custards. 3 for a penny when I were a lad, and you can still get them from M&S (but now it's a tad more pricey)
