RedRich Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 I was listening to a show on the radio this morning and the presenters were talking about their favorite sweets from when they were kids. They were trying to describe fizzle sticks and how they weren't available any more. Now I was very partial to a fizzle stick myself when I was going to school. Anyone else got any particular favorites of their own from their youth that aren't available any more. Rich, Quote

Tarabuses Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 I think sweet cigarettes have been banned. I bought them for the collection cards rather than the cigarettes themselves, which were nothing great. Quote

I went down that route before, the postage was very painful... I found a small shop in O'Connell street about a year ago selling them. The guy behind the counter looked bemused when I bought the whole lot he had for me, my g/f and my brother. He never got them back in and went out of business soon after. I have a pass for a cash and carry too but they never have them. Quote

WRENNEIRE Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 My own favourite was Sherbofiz Cost was 3d, never bought one in new money It came with a liquorice straw that you could suck the sherbert (sounds rough!) through The fizz was created by forming carbon dioxide on your tougue, would bring tears to your eyes Some bloke in a yellow hat and high viz vest probably took iy off the market?
