without googling, what a spogs?

[baldrickslittlesister]

I'm wondering if I was the only person who didn't know what these were - I've known the product for years and never known they were called spogs.

No idea, sorry.

Having googled I had no idea either! I thing the name suits them though

I have always called the blue and pink aniseed gummy sweets in licorice allsorts spogs. They are the only ones I like to eat in them!

Well I thought they were kids but that doesn't seem to fit

Sweets, like your common or garden corner shop variety

I've had to google and I had no idea that's what they were called. You learn something new everyday

Spogs were sweets where I grew up.

The weird and disgusting things in liquorice all sorts.

I tried one once and nearly threw up.

I really hope that's what you mean and it isn't some new fangled sex act or something

If you're a fan of Terry Pratchett then they are the Nac mac feegles equivalent of sporrans.

Always thought the pink and blue all sorts were jelly sprogs?

I mis-read it as sprogs

Like in Bridget Jones "when are you going to get sprogged up Bridge?"

Neither had I, they are my favourites of all the licorice allsorts (though I can't eat them now - allergies) so I was looking for a different aniseed sweet instead, that's how I found out.

Yes, the blue and pink aniseed sweets I'm liquorice allsorts... DM called them 'worm cakes' when I was little

I could have sworn they were sprogs

They are yum

The weird and disgusting things in liquorice all sorts

They're my favourite ones and yes I did know thats what they're called.

When we were growing up 'spoggy' was chewing gum.

Had never heard of spogs - now I know!

Pink and blue jelly sweets with tiny sugar balls all over them - aniseedy flavour.

Can't eat just one, they are very moreish!

Think they are sometimes also called jelly buttons, but spogs is the right name ;)

We always new them as horse gums.

The round soft sweets in liquorice allsorts. They're blue or pink and often called jelly buttons?

The pink or blue jelly ball covered sweets you get In liquorice allsorts, you can buy bags of them on their own

My favourite liquorice allsort- the pink and blue aniseed jellies.

Yep the blue and pink round sweets! I only know this as my first job was in a sweet shop!

We always knew them as ‘worm cakes’ too! The best part of a packet of Liquorice Allsorts.

They're called Jelly Buttons
