Oooh iced gems!

I think that all sweet/chocolate type things have changed, curley wurley's used to be loads bigger than they are now, and cadbury fudges.

unrelated topic - i bought a smoothie in somerfields... strawberry and banana reduced to 50p (from £1), use by 12th September.... it's fizzy!! not good i think, shall i take it back... am going past later anyway.... or do i forfeit rights as it was yellow stickied.....?

(apologies to RSq, as she might have read this in the runners thread too.)



edit -
I actually bought 2 - both are fizzy! Yuk!!! as this amounts to a pound, and i am MSE, i am certainly going to take them back..

I love you too NAGH and not just for your culinary tastes:p

I'm not sur if the sweets got smaller or we got bigger or a combination of both?

I used to also love the smokey bacon football crisps and wham bars:p . Iced gems are also a favourite I do occasionally indulge in a 6 pack...:o although not (quite) all in one sitting:p

the goods have to be fit for consumption and purpose even if they are yellow stickered so yes take them back!

I went into a shop last week that had loads of wham bars and other 'old' sweets. I got a couple of the licorice wands filled with sherbert, yum.

Thanks Sar/Elli - i will be taking them back... if they don't explode before i get back to the shop!

Y'know it's not good when you open a smoothie and it goes "shhhhhh" like a can of pop!
