To find only one measly green jelly baby in the whole packet?

I like the black ones so would be happy with that. You ABU.

YABU

As long as you have orange ones, who needs the aliens?

Whatmeworry · 10/02/2012 10:58

GJB go Home.....

LoonyRationalist · 10/02/2012 10:59

I wouldn't be miffed I'd be delighted - What size packet though?

diddl · 10/02/2012 10:59

YABU!

I´m not fussed about the green ones either!

Just off out to shop so must add JBs to list.

Green sweets are poisonous. It's true- my granny told me.

GrittersWifeAndProud · 10/02/2012 11:00

I agree with worra! Why is it the orange flavour sweets are always the best ones?

Sewilma · 10/02/2012 11:03

YANBU!

I love the green ones too!! And green wine gums, green refreshers, green boiled sweets...

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 10/02/2012 11:03

Green ones aren't ripe though...

WorraLiberty · 10/02/2012 11:04

Gritters I think it's because they're the only flavour that actually taste like the fruit they claim to be Grin

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 10/02/2012 11:10

You can have my green ones, I throw them in the binBlush

Hate, hate, hate the green ones. I take 5 jellybabies on my long runs, 1 yellow, 1 orange, 2 red, 1 black, never a green one!

Green sweets are the work of the devil!

Ilovedaintynuts · 10/02/2012 11:10

I love green sweets Smile
Black sweets are the devil's work though.

LoonyRationalist · 10/02/2012 11:11

Sewilma - I have a sweet jar full of green ones as everyone in this house rejects them as inedible

Distended · 10/02/2012 11:12

Lime jelly beans re vastly superior to any other flavour, if i got none in a pack i would complain.

I don't eat any yellow sweets whatsoever, they are made from the devil piss

Ilovedaintynuts · 10/02/2012 11:12

Doyouthinkhesaurus, we should share a bag Smile

Ilovedaintynuts · 10/02/2012 11:14

As a kid I could make a green opal fruit last ages just sucking it gently. The purple ones I gave away.

Mandy2003 · 10/02/2012 11:14

On a scale of 1 to 5 where 1 is least favourite and 5 is top favourite - here's my ratings:

1 - Yellow
2 - Orange
3 - Green
4 - Red
5 - Black

Think it's Fruit Pastilles where you can get packs of reds and blacks only, but they're not as nice as finding the reds and blacks in a whole packet. Strange Hmm

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 10/02/2012 11:15

Mmm, good idea ILoveDaintyNuts bagsy all the red onesGrin

I'm amazed so many people like green sweets, I don't think I've ever met anyone in real life who does apart from dh but he is a human dustbin

FaithHopeAndKevin · 10/02/2012 11:20

  1. Red
  2. Black
  3. Yellow
  4. Green
  5. Orange

Mandy, we should get together Grin

GrittersWifeAndProud · 10/02/2012 11:29

worra you may have a point there :o

Ooh I'm just craving some now damnit!

Almostfifty · 10/02/2012 11:38

The vast majority of the babies are orange.

I hate orange.

I may have to leave them for my sons to eat.

I bought them for me, for a little treat to hide at the back of the cupboard. That'll teach me. :o

Just eat something else while you're hiding in the back of the cupboard Grin

Almostfifty · 10/02/2012 11:51

:o

Another thing, why is it that when you don't want children to find things, they always do, but if they need something urgently, it can be in front of their noses and they can't see it?

Oooo LooneyRationalist am very jealous of your jar of green sweeties! Would happily take them off your hands!!! Wink

I forgot about green fruit pastilles...

Mabelface · 10/02/2012 12:26

Forget your jelly babies. What you want is jelly meerkats from Aldi. They are 49p worth of deliciousness and are gelatine free.
