Can anyone remember these rather politically incorrect sweeties from the 70's...

Trebor's Cock's and Fannies?

They were little jelly private parts covered in sugar? Some were sour.

Space ships.... my favs.

Used to be given 10p and you used to get loads.

Mind you thats when you used to get 2 for 1p.

Now days you tell the kids to put a few pic & mix in the bag and it cost you £5

Some shops still do them, but I just typed 'old sweets' into a search engine and found this site.
