mixed lollies

[kelebek]

so my local store has mixed lollies you know the ones in the white paper bag, a reminder of my childhood days. We got a bag the other day still $1 (but I am sure there isn't as much as there use to be ) and they were lovely and fresh and soft. Got some today and realised they mustn't have that high of a turnover cause they were a bit chewy

Love the pineapples and the cars and the strawberries and cream
Missing the choc buds, you know the freckles and milk and white buds and caramel ones.
Not loving the mint leaves so much... they just mess with the other flovours of the lollies and mum use to steal those ones so maybe that has something to do with it.

Do you remember mixed lollies? what are your favourite?

I got excited when I saw those little paper bags in our local deli but like everything else that shop sells they were stale even the girls didn't like them and they are not fussy when it comes to lollies

I loved the caramel choc buds and cobbers
Didn't like teeth, mint leaves or black cats

White and caramel buds
Pineapple and 'strawberry and cream'
Bullets
Mint leaves...but not as an adult.

I love lollies!

I used to get freckles all the time or just a mixed bag.

I use to buy a mixed bag of lollies for 20c, those were the days.

I used to like rasberries, strawberries & cream, freckles, gummy bears/babies.

OMG chiko's!! BESTEST!

I still eat snakes when the kids have them, but thats about it. Too sweet for me

ETA: Cobba's!

I love the old fashioned jelly babies, the ones covered in a powder not the shiny ones. There use to be a shop around the corner from nans that had them yum yum.

Can't get them anywhere now

I didn't like milk bottles or banana's. None of those types, lol.

Pineapples! I was convinced there were shaped like a fish for most of my childhood.
Raspberries, caramel buds, teeth, snakes - only the red & yellow ones - and freckles.
I don't like any of the chalky type lollies, musk sticks, bananas, anything liquorice or chicos.

Dianne I remember the mixed bag of lollies for 20cents too. We used to take forever to pick which lollies we wanted in our bag for 20cents as well. It must have driven the shopkeeper crazy but all the kids used to do it. My favourites were:

Jelly Babies (sugar coated)
Teeth
Milk Bottles
Pineapples
Bullets
Strawberry and Creams
Sherbies

I also used to love Choo Choo bars and Toffee Apple bars but they were 10cents and a bit too expensive for me most of the time!

I'm sorry... but chocolate should NOT come in the form of a gelotine lolly!!!!

Awesome - all the more for me

[FabFiona]

Bananas! Much cheaper than $3!

I also liked the freckles and choc buds.

Not a fan of the milk bottles or chickos.

lol thanks for the memories ladies and yes I love cobbers too

[Caz1971]

My favourites were licorice, chicos, cobbers, choo choo bars. My brother and me used to walk to the milk bar, they were 1c and 2 c each, I remember.

My primary school canteen used to stock these little coloured licorice coated in powder. I wish I could have these again!

Jupiter bars - I now buy them in the supermarket. yummmy.

[Floweryfields]

Oh I loved them! The shop I worked in had them for years then they went out of them - I used to love being able to pick what colour jelly beans you wanted! And cobbers, mmmm, cobbers and pineapples and straw and cream, chicos,.....ahh lollies, the reason I have a wobbly belly!

When I was a kid in highschool the traditional summer activity was to go to the pool (and tan yourself silly oops) and buy bags of choc and white and caramel drops, open the paper bag out flat and melt them on the hot cement - mmmm tasty!
