I remember those days. So much sugar :)
These days my kids just skip the middle man and pour sugar straight into their mouths. At one point I was frequently confiscating sachets of sugar they'd nabbed while I wasn't looking.
In the US we’d basically been doing this for decades as kids, sanctioned by the candy makers through pixy stix (which apparently wasn’t even real sugar but maltodextrin).
I completely forgot pixy stix existed. Now I kinda want one.
I had one out of my kids' Halloween candy a few months ago. Trust me, no you don't.
Some things are better left as memories.
Sounds right.
Caught mine sucking down liquid coffee creamer. Fuckin' kids.
