Cassis Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Miki's right. Jubbly:Publication: GrocerPublication Date: 04-JUN-05Article ExcerptJubbly, the iconic 1950s and '60s ice lolly, is the latest in a line ofproducts making a comeback to fuel consumers' retro hunger.

Look what they've done![img]http://www.calypso.co.uk/infozone/images/products/freeze_jubbly.jpg[/img]It's not a giant wonky triangle shape any more! A bit triangle-ish but tiny 62ml!

Christine Animal Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 What about the original choc-ice, there was no stick and the chocolate was all dark and crunchy. Used to eat them in the pictures and bits would fall all over you and then melt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Ah yes, the trick being to see if you could bite off all the chocolate first. Especially the bits that fell on Jude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Head Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 Second choice, Gambas...de-shelled, de veigned, marinaded with lemon, garlic, fresh ginger, olive oil and just a touch of tobasco.....barb'd on a wooden skewer over Oak and rosemary for a few seconds served with a fresh lettuce and spring onion salad with a white balsamic, olive oil and fresh black pepper dressing. Perhaps accompanied by really good prawn sesame toast with a really good Pouilly fume? God me mouths a watering!Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this [+o(] feeling whenever I went to the shop for my newspapers and the kids got their comics. I would allow them to buy their 'groceries'! for the weekend ... Couldn't look at that assortment having been brought up with only an occasional sweet on highdays and holidays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
