    Reminds me of when i used to be allowed to ride to the shop on my bike with my friends and my 50p pocket money. I thought it was amazing that these sweets were only 1p and i could buy 50 of them for my money. Miss those times.

    I remember when I was wee and I’d finally received some pocket money for all the hard work I’d done for my parents. I’d race down to the local sweet shop and buy a selection of these along with some of my other classic favourites. Those were the good ol’ days!!

    I used to go down to our corner shop to buy these! My Mum always said that they were the best ones to buy if you wanted to learn how to blow bubbles, she was right! Plus they’re yummy! :)

    feeling carefree, going with the flow.
    When i wanted to chew on some great bubblegum
    Anglo was always my choice it was YUM!.

    the delicious fruity flavour of pear. :)

    I haven’t had bubble gum for years! I remember putting 3 or 4 bubble gums in my mouth, chewing them soft, then seeing how big a bubble I could blow. And it always seemed to “pop” on my face!

    Reminds me of my late grandmother, who used to give me and my brother 20p each to get some sweets. We saw it as such a great treat, at no other time would we be allowed to stuff a whole handful of these in our mouths in one sitting lol!

    I didn’t know these are pear flavoured. I loved them as a kid and I am now trying to remember the taste, if you asked me what flavour I thought they were I would have said bubble gum flavour but I guess that isn’t an actual flavour.
