Candy memories
I used to love jersey caramels and i remember when i was litte, i'd always go down to the dairy on saturday (pocket money day!!!) and buy as many jersey caramels as i could, and eat them til i felt sick :) those were the good days :P
My cousin's favourite candy used to be chocolate fish. He lived in England and always when he came over, he'd want tons and tons of chocolate fish. Unfortunately he is a strict vegetarian... i remember the day he was informed that chocolate fish contained geltin (substance made from calves hooves)... He cried that day and has never eaten another since.
Those sour lollies that make your tongue blue. Those always were, and still are, awesome.
Zombie chews!! my intermediate school canteen sold them and they were soo good! unfortunately, I have never liked really sour lollies, and they were very sour. So i'd eat mine tiny bit by tiny bit and it used to take me a full week to eat a whole one!!
Watching the charlie the unicorn video with my older cousin right before going to Australia for a holiday, and the whole way saying "Candy Mountain, Charlie! Candy Mountain, Charlie!!!" to my brother because we decided he was grumpy like Charlie... we quoted lines from it all the way there... I remember us saying "Shun the non believer! shunnnnnn...." to my grandmother's new boyfriend and he thought we didn't like him after we said that cos he had no idea what we were on about :(
Those lollies that looked like cigarettes... man you were cool back in the day if you had them! you could pretend you smoked, it was awesome!
Im feeling rather nostalgic now!!
Happy theme thursday :)
(even if it is friday...)

ReplyDeleteAh the Spaceman lollies looked like cigarettes!! Apparently the red tip has been taken off them now though, I haven't bought them in so long that I wouldn't know. I might buy some just to see
ReplyDeletei never had any of those candies. my ex turned me on to smarties. not the sugary ones we have here in the states. the chocolate variety that taste like m&ms, only better. i could go for some of those right about now
