I used to like little choc/toffee sweets (we got 3 for ½p) we just asked for a penny worth milseán and got 6 sweets - loved them
there were chewing gums I liked too called Goldrush I think, they came in a bag like a swag bag

I used to do that with the red torpedoes too! I like tiger nuts but every now and again you would get a bad one. I've just discovered you can still buy tiger nuts but I'm not sure my teeth are up to the challenge now!

The small round fruit gums, because they lasted so long. And small enough to hide under your tongue if teacher asked you to open your mouth. :0>

Flying saucers

Rhubarb Rock and White Chocolate Buttons though the latter made me feel sick. Main favourite was Newberry Fruits with the liquid centre - never see them these days.
