Quite right too bf. When you consider all this liquorice and sherbert and how kids used to get soo sticky when eating all this stuff it amazes me my mother ever got my school shirts so white (and I didn't even mention blue/black ink stains)!
Not so much sweets, but how about those tiny liquorice lozenges called Meloids, available from chemists and came in a tin with a small hole in the corner from which you had to shake it.
