so my mum and I have this discussion going on.
I love mm,skips,flumps,flying saucers etc.
basically all the treats I liked when I was a kid but mother thinks it looks uncivilised for a grown woman to be eating these sorts of things.
she says I should have evolved to kettle chips,plain tortillas and thornton choccies.
I think bollocks.
so what do you all think?
and do any of you still happily consume'childish'snacks?
what is your favourite?

Yanbu, I love pickled onion monster munch and I am nearly 51. But have you tried the flamin' hot flavour? They are awesome.

I love all crisps but tend to eat the ultra yummy ones (MM, Skips, Space Invaders etc) in private Grin.

I love pickled onion monster munch. They're my number 1 pregnancy craving at the moment. I also like the Thorntons mini brownies at the moment too.

Just eat what you like. I still like fruit salads, black jacks and skittles.

Uncivilised Grin

My grandad thinks it's uncivilised to drink out of cans. He was scandalised when I politely refused his offer of a glass.

I am currently eating Nice N Spicy nik naks.

YANBU.

My sister is 39 and she'll do anything for a pack of flying saucers.

I also love pickled onion monster munch but am not yet in my 30s!

urtwistingmymelonman · 04/07/2013 05:31

I loved them too but haven't seen them here for years.

Combine them with Haribo if you need to. That'd be a party in your mouth!

Bleeeurgh, YAB quite U because these horrible chunks of damp polystyrene are quite indelible.

Bring back pickled onion Discos, Phileas Fogg Californian Corn Chips and Mignons Morceaux. Yum.
