The normal Dairy Milk bars are also different, they melt very differently so you can't use them to cook with so easily anymore.

The correct way to eat a Jelly Baby is thus:- lay it down on its back, squash the stomach with your forefinger, then squash its head. On no account do you crush its feet, that is uncivilized. This action will expose the gooey innards of the torso and head. Bite the head off first to enjoy an instant hit of white powder and gooeyness. Repeat for torso, then onto the rigidness of the uncrushed feet. Utter perfection, but it must be Bassetts, not some cheap Asda rip off.

Good vid. I enjoyed your reaction to the foods you really liked. As to Blackjacks, I am frankly amazed they are still around. I grew up in the mid to late 1950s and these were usually sold loose along with a fruity tasting version called Fruit Salad. Most of the UK were still pretty poor and these sweets were 4 for 1 penny. That is an old penny which had 240 pennies to the pound. Brings back happy childhood days of kids poking black tongues at each other. The fruity version were strictly for wimps as they didn't dye your tongue. Other things to try; Cornish pasty, Jam and whipped cream scone, fried egg sarnie.

I make my own scotch eggs, and put chilli in the sausage meat. Yum

As a lifelong English person, I never had a Scotch egg that I thought was any good, because the only ones I ever had were like that one: cold and wrapped in plastic. I had to move to the US to experience them the way they should be eaten: hot, homemade and freshly prepared. I don't mind saying that that was practically a religious experience. OMG, so good!

4 Matchmakers in 1 serving??? I eat 4 at one time! It's so easy to eat the whole box in one go. I like how you ditched the savouries so quickly for the chocolate.

I lived in the east Midlands for 12yrs, if you like Bakewell tarts go to Bakewell in Derbyshire and have a Bakewell pudding......so much better

Don't Bakewell tarts usually have a layer of icing on the top?
@Eoin66616 жыл бұрын
yup the tarts do, the puddings don't, but you probably won't get them outside of Bakewell itself

Hahahaha! Oh come now, they aren't that bad. Anyway, try fruit salads next time. You'll have the same problem getting the paper wrapper off the sweet, but I think you'll like how they taste. :)
@Archnor6 жыл бұрын
I remember them as the penny sweets from the newsagents confectionary section, something to add to your little paper bag from the pick and mix section. That brings back memories, as does seeing sherbet dip in Tesco today.

Black jacks would be sold loose with “Fruit salads” raspberry and pineapple chews, they always went together. Then there were “Mojos”, various flavours 1/2 p each.

Best way to enjoy the pork pie, scotch egg and bakewell tart is by cutting them into portions and eating from the inside out.

I bite the top off and squirt brown sauce on it. Or piccalilli. Works on both pies and scotch eggs. You want a warm scotch egg though, with a runny yolk.

Melton Mowbray pies are “mechanically processed” - try a handmade one! Get yourself to “Petch’s” in Great Ayton (pronounced “Canny Atton”) North Yorkshire, or Tindalls in Driffield, East Yorkshire! THEN you will have had a “Pie”!
