Wtf? Green flavoured sweets are the best in ANY kind of sweet. They're either apple or lime and therefore delicious. Your views are abhorrent!

Plot twist, the green Haribo Goldbears are actually Strawberry flavoured 🤯

The only correct answer here

Black. Unless it's liquorice. I don't want no liquorice. Then red. Closely followed by green, then orange and lastly yellow.

Cantstandsmugness · 13/09/2022 20:03

So - a very long time ago when Maynards factory was in North London I visited through work and watched the huge vats of jelly being made. They said most people love the black ones because.......all the mixes which go a little wrong get chucked in the black one as the colour masks all the others and then gets a mix of all the flavours! So now you know the trusted secret.

Ladybyrd · 13/09/2022 20:05

Orange are the best in everything!

DramaAlpaca · 13/09/2022 20:09

No, green ones are the nicest, followed by yellow.

Orange and red are about equal.

Black ones are naaasty.

OldTinHat · 13/09/2022 20:17

You're being very unreasonable. Everyone knows Jelly Babies are the best.

DeliberatelyObtuse · 13/09/2022 20:23

Yellow
Green
Orange

It's the rule for every sweet - fruit pastilles, wine gums, everything

Yes!!!

zeromango · 13/09/2022 21:09

Black then red ... the rest can get in the bin. Wink

sunlovingcriminal · 13/09/2022 21:23

Red. Then black.

All others do not deserve to make it into the bag.

Dibs. No returns. End of.

PuddleglumtheMarshWiggle · 13/09/2022 21:24

I'm strongly in the green camp!
jelly babies are the best, followed by Opal fruits (no messing about with this Starburst nonsense) then it's wine gums.

crimsonlake · 13/09/2022 21:29

Midget gems all the way.

tweetypi · 13/09/2022 21:29

Ahf22 · 13/09/2022 21:32

This is just fucked up beyond words.

IdisagreeMrHochhauser · 13/09/2022 21:43

Yellow are the worst in all sweets. I'm mostly a Haribo connoisseur but for wine gums:

Black
Red
Green
Orange
Yellow

Ladybyrd · 13/09/2022 21:47

If it's Jellybelly, all bets are off. Bloody aniseed, indeed.

TheSpringyGuyAndTheCheeseEater · 14/09/2022 00:14

What??? Green are the very best ones.

TheSpringyGuyAndTheCheeseEater · 14/09/2022 00:15

Your list is almost upside down. It should go:

Green
Orange
Yellow
Red
Black

They sell bags of just red and black ones because they are clearly the best.

This is also so wrong. Just why? Where are the bags of green ones? I'd buy them all.

Especially the green wine gums. Why can't they make bags just of those? I think it's an evil ploy to force people to keep buying the shitty sweets just to get a few of the good ones.
