I think jubes have the texture of over cooked calamari. Just odd and chewy.

First, she came after our Milky Ways...now the jubes...where will this madness end?!

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh dear! I don't mean to shit on anyone's bad taste but jubes belong on the bottom of the lolly jar with the jelly beans.

Absolutely. I'm not keen on any soft lollies though, I'll happily throw jelly babies and snakes in that pile. I'll be over here with the chocolate.

No babies and snakes are ok. What kind of monster are you?

I'm quite happy being the monster with all the chocolate and no yucky lollies!

I used to love all the milk bottles, teeth and strawberries and cream. Either my tastes changed, the lollies changed or a bit of both because I haven't enjoyed them the same in years. Now I only get excited by dark chocolate coated liquorice or chocolate in general. Anyone remember wine gums? Mum used to buy all that sort of stuff, which nobody in the house liked.

Liking dark chocolate is a sign of advancing age!
