The. Best. I got a packet of these from a corner shop type place on Upper North Street last weekend. They're even better.

OH!!! They are amazing, I used to have hundreds of packets of them at school at any one time - in my locker, in my bag, bloody everywhere!!!!

Any Chinese supermarket wil have these (new one on Queens Road?), which are as good.

The big Tesco's in Worthing sell these too (in the aisle with all the specialist foreign foods).

We have a great lot down at Sainsburys, two for a pound.

I would state our slogan, 'Live Well for Less', but that would sound oddly ironic.

So I shall merely say 'Sainsbury's: Saivious of Saving the Flavour You're Craving Since 1869'

The most boring sweets ever?

I know I've raised this before, but Milk Bottles can't hold a light to the Milk Gums that used to be sold in a cellophane wrapper. Sort of toffo sized roll - they weren't wrapped individually but just in this semi transparent wrapper. Same shape as a toffo but obviously milk gum colour/flavour. Impossibly moreish. Haven't seen them since the late 70's though. About a dozen sweets in a pack. If anyone knows if these are still made and or where to get them, I'll happily lob a tenner into the REMF.

They were great, I'd love a pack of those! Saw them in the 80s.

I used to love them, had some the other day though and I'm sure they don't taste as good and they seem smaller?

Retro sweet shop in hove, church road - diagonally opposite the big Tesco I think

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Crazy idea, but have you tried Tesco and Marks & Spencer?

Chewy Milk Bottles are sold in the retro sweet section of M and S. I do remember the same sweet being in a tube too. Does anyone know what the white- slightly powdery coating is made of?

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

There is a decent sweet shop with lots of retro stuff in next door to resident records in Kensington Gardens.
