All the talk of pic n mix on the cinema thread has left me missing the sweet shop where I used to live which did the biggest range of pic n mix. Can’t justify a 60 mile round trip to go and buy some! So tell me, what goes in your pic n mix bag?

I used to work in the pic & mix section in Woolworths (what a claim to fame!) I don’t eat pic & mix anymore...

Rufus27 · 20/02/2018 23:03

White Mice!

Notsooriginalwerther · 20/02/2018 23:05

Always the jelly snake and then cry when I had to eat it because by that point I’d formed a bond with it. ( I always ate it’s head first so it was a quick way to go, as humain as possible)

That weird toffee crumble stuff that looked like cat shit dusted with litter.

beepthemeep · 20/02/2018 23:06

Foam bananas
Vanilla fudge
Those toffee crumble chocolate things
Jelly beans
Strawberry foam hearts
Blacks and rasps
Dolly mixture (especially the little sugar squares)
Chocolate honeycomb squares
A massive jelly snake
Chocolate cashews or Brazil nuts

I like pic n mix!

Cola cubes
Black jacks and fruit salads
Cola bottles

I came on to say white mice. I also like flying saucers and those foam shrimps.

Little pennie;
,
Strawbs,
Fruit salad
Cola bottles
White and pink mice
Pink pigs
Jazzies (preferably white chocolate)
Jelly snake (I reckon anyone who doesn’t say they’d have them is lying...)
And of course toffee pennies!
These days it would be a bag full of toffee pennies, chocolate limes and cola cubes.

OP, some Tesco branches have pic N mix if that's nearer you!

CocoLoco87 · 20/02/2018 23:22

I only put cherries in my bag... I'll put about 10 or 12 in and that's me happy Grin if it's a pay by size of cup situation then I'll take the hit and still just put a few cherries in Blush

EB123 · 20/02/2018 23:24

Wilkinsons pick and kixnis half price at the moment.

For me it has to be foamy bananas, white mice, fizzy cola bottles.

DixieFlatline · 20/02/2018 23:32

The sour/fizzy bottles that are half blue and half pink. Just an entire bag of those will do. I have been known to pretty much just get an entire bag of them. A few liquorice-based odds and ends for DH as well.

Fudge
Those giant choc covered honeycomb
Jelly beans.

I'm buying sweets today and I blame you all. They're a proper guilty pleasure as they have no nutritional value at all.

LoopyLou1981 · 21/02/2018 08:18

Jazzies, snowies and those long cable things that have the white bit through the centre 😋
