You could get sticks of liquorice with blue knobbly bits on too. Loved them.

you can still get the sweet tobacco. My husband says he used to get a chocolate smokers kit every christmas, would have chocolate cigarettes and a chocolate pipe. And who remembers the liquorice pipes that had the red bobbles at the end?

My sister had a tube of Polo Holes, even when she finished them she kept the tube to store other things in.

Danny John Jules V/o the ads IIRC.

Re: Defunct sweets?

on a completely different topic, my dad once bought a can of polo holes. It was like a coke can but it had the polo logo and was just an empty sealed drink can. I believed it really was full of holes too!

I vaugly remember in the 90s you could get a green plastic cylinder with tiny mints in, made by polo. I think they were called Polo Holes. There was the white normal ones and the spotted blue spearmint ones (yum! ) But I do remember there being something like that cause there was an advert that had the polos, minus holes, going through a stamping machine and a voice over with something to the effect of "What shall we do with all the polo holes?"
