Ye olde fab sweet shop

Was thinking about sweets that I used to enjoy when I was a child. Lots of them are no longer around but for this thread we're bringing them back,

So what would you like the shop to stock.

I'd like the old sweet peanuts with the peanut in the middle.

Yes I tried them, apparently they're not allowed to have real nuts due to food allergies x

Beaurocracy gone mad.... Whatever happened to just saying 'may contain nuts?'
