Milk bottles!!😍

Chocolate Limes
Parma Violets (small tubes only, the monster sized ones are the wrong texture)
Banana Toffos (I never touch actual banana)
Cabanas (I know they don't technically exist any more but a woman on Etsy sells handmade versions which I can only allow myself to buy once a year)

Oddfellows

OzziePopPop · 13/12/2022 19:13

Love hearts or shrimps and bananas, although neither are particularly retro? Just been around a long time? Or is that what retro means? I thought they’d have to be out of production to be retro?

Cherry lips!! Two in the mouth at once and slide them together 😂

Cola rollerballs (they were silver and resembled ball bearings). I think they were banned due to toxicity 😂

Pint pots! My husband hates them, so I can eat the whole bag too 😊
