This is not good! I've hidden them behind a bin so the effort of reaching them makes it too much hassle. Expect sugar fuelled posts to follow

I want some!!

 

[Father:_Polley]

Me too. That's why they're hidden

 

[HBK-aholic]

Lmao.

I always buy that many of those Haribo rings. Love them.

 

[Father:_Polley]

likewise...my addiction to sugar is scary. I think im going to go cycling so I can justify eating some

 

[HBK-aholic]

Haha. I don't think I lose any weight at the gym, just work off all the Haribo.

 

[Father:_Polley]

i think I can't lose weight. lol. I'm not fat, but I just have a very big build naturally and struggle to drop below 14st (195lbs for the Americans) and maintain it

 

[Papa Shango]

Wine gums? Haribo rings? Why don't you just eat Skittles like normal people?

 

[Father:_Polley]

we do...they don't come in 1kg bags though. They're for the hardcore sugar rush i need somedays

 

[Papa Shango]

1 kg... isn't that like 2.5 lbs?

 

[Father:_Polley]

roughly

 

[Papa Shango]

That's a lot of whatever wine gums are.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

That's a lot of candy

Wine gums (or winegums) are chewy, firm sweets similar to gumdrops, except they are not sugar-coated. They are manufactured from animal gelatin, mixed with sweeteners, flavourings and colourings. They are extremely popular in Ireland and the United Kingdom, as well as in Commonwealth nations such as Canada, New Zealand, Malta and South Africa, and other northern and middle European countries. Popular brands include Bassett's (or Maynards in Canada, the UK and Ireland).
