They were indeed, push pops were the predecessor to the ring pop in the 90s.

Pontefract cakes taste like sh1te these days imo.
The liquorice was sourced from Yorkshire now I think it's Australian and they're bloody awful.

What a waster <laugh>
I used to spend hours laying them out in diferent paterns and eating the spares, gradually reducing them down to a ludo board . Simple pleasures.

Hope you're pleased Felltop man. This thread stirs so many childhood memories I'll be lucky if I don't need therapy before it's done. Can hardly believe there are so many sweets I now remember but hadn't thought of for 50 years. Incredible. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

I love mints. Fox's glacier my all time favs.

My Dad reckons it is my Grandads fault. He died when I was a youngun so no real memories. But my Dad reckons I would run straight in the house jump on his knee and wouldnt go anywhere else until I had an extra strong mint. He always had a bag of them loose in the table next to his chair. He used to break a bit off one and give it to me, I was about 3 or 4 then.
