TattyDevine · 18/11/2010 18:04

Did you know they have 3/4 of the total sodium allowance of a 6-12 month baby?

Am I the only one who didn't have a clue what a pomp bear was before today?

TattyDevine · 18/11/2010 18:04

Daily allowance that is Grin

AgentZigzag · 18/11/2010 18:04

Well I've bought two 6 packs in the past couple of weeks so I've helped out Grin

Good for the economy as well.

AgentZigzag · 18/11/2010 18:06

Is that a whole bag though tatty? I've given 10mo DD2 a couple, which she loved Smile

TattyDevine · 18/11/2010 18:06

Also, its about time the grinning icon got their braces off, don't you think? They've had them absolutely forever, and now with Invisalign and all that, it seems unnecessary...

AgentZigzag · 18/11/2010 18:06

A couple of Bear rather than a couple of bags!

TattyDevine · 18/11/2010 18:11

Yeah its a whole bag. My 3 year old wouldn't eat a whole bag so its cool!

DancingThroughLife · 18/11/2010 18:15

Ooh, look! Bear

Grin

I'm about to buy a ton for DD's half birthday tea and cakes pom bear morning. Wonder if the other mums will get it?

Seriously though, the Brand Manager for pombears must be seriously bewildered - probably wetting his/her knickers/pants with delight. I can imagine it's a bit of a dog of a brand.

Yeah they're not very rock and roll.

Can't afford Gary Lineker for their ad campaign.

Well, couldn't. Now they can have anyone - Kate Middleton?

MardyBra · 18/11/2010 18:57

Wow - just been on their website. There are pombear games and you can join the pombear club.

The site was a little slow. Maybe we aren't the only ones....

I have a photo of a Bear relaxing on a sunlounger Grin my friend and I had a fondness for pom bears when we went to Majorca about 7 years ago. They were almost too cute to eat!

I have bought them for the kids before but end up eating most of them myself, they're addictive...

TheOldestCat · 18/11/2010 19:28

DH reckoned the entire original thread was a 'viral marketing campaign' for Pombears.

He is a cynical thing.

I bought a six-pack yesterday, but that was mostly a DD-led initiative.

MardyBra · 18/11/2010 19:34

Wouldn't it be great if the Pombear equivalent of OcadoAnnie were to come on here and chat. Something like Pombear Pam.

I'm starting to think we may need a separate bear section for all these threads. A bit like the royals...
