Sweet Memories

I saw a packet of these sweets in the supermarket and was immediately transported back over the years - just had to buy them! Then I ate them ...

Sweet memories - love your last sentence ---" Then I ate them " - the most sensible thing to do !

[FBailey]

@beryl They didn't taste the same Beryl - bit of a let down really!

[Beryl Lloyd]

@fbailey -- I also find that memory tastes much better !!

[Hazel]

Can never really go back! But I would buy a tube of sherbet with a liquorice stick. I hate liquorice but it's useful for eating sherbet!

[FBailey]

@quietpurplehaze Oh sherbet dabs - haven't seen one of those in years ... Will keep my eyes open!

[sarah]

We have something similar here around Valentines- used to love them but last I tried them I thought they tasted like chalk - oh to be a kid ! Nice photo

[Bep]

Sweet memories indeed...

[Merrelyn]

I found some of these a good while back and they certainly didn't taste the same. It was very disappointing!

[Sarah]

Takes me back in time!

[Simply Amanda]

Hahaha!

[Jacqueline]

Lol! Fun capture

[4rky]

Very nostalgic! Used to love these. And Sherbet DibDabs too :)

[Carole Sandford]

Everyone loves Love-hearts! I used to eat more than one at once & let them melt & fizz!

[gloria jones]

[carol white]

Takes me back to my childhood

[Margaret Brown]

And they still taste the same!! One of my childhood favourites. Nice macro

[Sally Ings]

Oh wow, I haven't seen sweets like those for years.

[Dianne]

Sweet in so many ways.

[JackieR]

Tasty????

[sally agnew]

Great memories :)

[Michelle]

My daughter had these at her resent wedding (knowing they were one of my favourites and black jacks) I ate so many they caused ulcers on my tongue!

[Islandgirl]

SWEET shot!

[Tina]

Sweet memories

[Karly]

Oh yes....I remember these - or something very similar. Too sweet now though:) Great close-up shot!

[Mave]

Odd how our tastes change. They are too chalky now.

[Laura]

Great photo. I love them too.

[Susan.T.]

cool shot! Nice sugar hit.lol...
i remember these as a child too.
Sometimes you would get them in a show bag from a fair.

[Rob Z]

A great shot - and a grand case of sentimentality and practicality!! ")

[Babs]

Oh brings back memories of my childhood too, I used to love Love Hearts.

[Phil Howcroft]

I was more in the Barretts Refreshers hard tablet formed fruit flavour fizzy sweets camp !!! Well I mean a young lad from Bolton would never eat girly love hearts !

[Wendy]

Sweet memories!

[Kathy]

Looks like Valentine's Day candy. I understand what the rest of you are saying about memory and taste. Looking for some pastry that tastes as good as it looks.

[FBailey]

@phil_howcroft Oh I used to love those too!
