[feeb]

Ohh I loved picking what lollies I wanted!!

I loved:
Freckles
carmel buds
choc buds white and milk
raspberries
red skins
Mates
Jelly babies
Snakes
Jubes

Did not like bannans, chiccos, toffee apple, musk sticks, milk bottles

Yep, we used to get $2 pocket money as kids, which was enough for a drink and a bag of lollies.

Best ones were:

Redskins
milkos
cobbers
chicos
aniseed rings
mint leaves
pineapples
strawberries and cream
sour worms
coke bottles

Didn't like:

bananas
bullets
raspberries
musk sticks
teeth

The hard caramel that was choc covered they were little squares.

So cobbers in other words

So cobbers in other words

never heard them called that!! Must be a state thing!

[Aussiegirl777]

Oh Cobbers....thanks. Never heard them called anything else before.

I also forget red and green frogs. I liked green ones the best. Everything is made smaller these days too. I'm sure the frogs and the teeth used to be so much bigger when I was a kid.

Could just've been because you were littler

But PRMG....you evil wench why on earth didn't I think of that...

Bananas and strawberries and cream here!

Now here's a tip I stole from Zarava Flutterby -

Buy a tub of ice cream and let it melt a bit and mix your lollies through, cold rock style! I throw in a peppermint crisp and a cherry ripe too. Then back into the freezer to set. Cheap cold rock and oh so nice.
