I was particularly fond of the very dark coloured ones. Blackcurrant I suppose

[nuthatch]

What about the mint ones - they weren't spangly at all

[Biker]

Really liked the (French) mustard coloured Spangles. No idea what flavour they were though......

[nuthatch]

I just checked, Biker - they say it was treacle although my first thought was butterscotch but you would have recognised that flavour

[Placido]

The most popular were the fruit ones but there was a packet called something like "Old Fashioned" (?) which were sort of aniseed, butterscotch and a sort of burnt toffee flavour - I think. All good anyway.

Yeah! I remember them. A bit adult for my taste buds if I recall correctly.
