Hatch Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 Bought my first packet today for years. I'd forgotten what a bastard they are on the teeth. I've got bits stuck everywhere.
bridge too far Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 What are your favourite colours / flavours, Hatch? Mine are the red ones and the black ones (Rowntrees brand, of course).
Hatch Posted 12 March, 2009 Author Posted 12 March, 2009 Once you've had black, you never go back. They have changed though, they are softer than they used to be. Still get stuck in the teeth though.
JohnnyFartPants Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 American Hard Gums. That is where it's at.
Scudamore Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 They have changed though, they are softer than they used to be. Still get stuck in the teeth though. This is true...and they ruined them in the changeover imo... I stockpiled several packets at the time...
bridge too far Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 We used to give them to our dog - how we laughed to see her trying to unstick them.
OLYMPIC Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 American Hard Gums. That is where it's at. Had my first packet of Hard Gums for about 20 years the other day still a top fruit based sweet.
Ponty Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 Oh hell, I have to agree with Jill. That's lime, never apple, flavour though.
hamster Posted 12 March, 2009 Posted 12 March, 2009 Had my first packet of Hard Gums for about 20 years the other day still a top fruit based sweet. ...for girls, just like Parma Violets, sweet necklaces and love hearts. Boys sweets: BlackJacks, kopkops, curly wurlys and bazooka joe buble gum.

Jillyanne Posted 13 March, 2009 Posted 13 March, 2009 Oh hell, I have to agree with Jill. That's lime, never apple, flavour though. Exactly.
