Nah. I like the jellies but you can't beat the drum 🙂
All vile and utterly wrong as is all liquorice
Meh, I can take them or leave them. Much like Marmite

Bleurgh!
You eat them one at a time? Freak.
They are all good except the jellies. Tbh - I don't what they are doing in there. Aniseed jelly isn't in the title. Get them out 😈
"Sweets" of satan imo.....
the most rubbish "sweet" ever
Just the plain black bits for me, nom nom nom
I've caught chub on the jelly ones.
Mmmmmmm. Not as nice as the hard liquorice sticks tho.
not a fan in general but the brown ones are the worst, not going to say chocolate it's how I imagine a tiny slab of mouse poo would taste
Someone's already eaten the Bertie Bassett!!
The jellies are the highlight - but they need to be in the mix with the other ones to be good. A bag of only the jellies doesn't work.
The one with the brown bit - thats the bad news.
tall sandwich here too. But give a liquorice choice it would be:-

Aniseed wheels ftw, they don't raise blood pressure to potentially dangerous levels like liquorice.
Work for the company who makes them and the jellies take 24 hours to make from start to finish hence why there isn't a lot of em in each bag, 30p a kilo in staff shop but I stick to wham bars and vimto jelly beans if honest...
I stick to wham bars
Wham bars stick to pretty much anything
The big sandwich ones are better than the small half sandwich ones.
It's only salty liquorice that's rank. Bassetts are ace.
This....

but if only partaking of the plain black bits then might as well just buy a nice big bag of liquorice.....!

You say this whilst Parma Violets are still in production?
Seriously, get your priorities right.
The brown ones are vile . . jellies all the way!
Brown sandwich, worst
The coconut around a liquorish cylinder are best.
The spotty ones, or 'spogs' as they're sometimes known on markets where you can buy them by weight. Possibly a northern thing.

Just saying you really like them would have been enough info! 😯
Not understanding the hate for the brown. Not my fave but would always partake if offered.
The jelly ones are best, the cylinder with white in the middle second, the big double-decker one third, the rest (apart from the coconut ones) are a close fourth (I don't like coconut so the wife or dog get those ones).
you know, I'd be keener to be forced fed Parma Violets than ****ing allsorts

I love Parma Violets!!
Willard, have you seen this:

They're all fantastic, but some are more fantastic than others. Although I wouldn't want a bag of only the bobbly aniseed ones. A bag containing only one of any of the other types, including the brown ones, would be perfectly acceptable.
Parma Violets are rank.
Parma Violet cheese has to be the rankest idea ever.
Worse than SRAM gears and Avid brakes.
Only the toilet rolls are too sickly, otherwise ace.
Also...
A jelly baby walks into the doctors. He's covered in skid marks and hundreds-and-thousands. Doctor looks at him and says "what have you been up to?!".
"****kin allsorts".
The liquorice tubes with the fondant inserts are the best - peel the liquorice off and eat that first, then have the fondant as desert.
Mmmmm
Nope.
Coconut wheel for the win.
Coconut wheel here ftw.
The aniseed jelly abomination is just a waste of valuable space in the packet imho.
In order:
Bertie
Jellies
Black liquorice sticks
Red and black battenburg style ones
Double sandwich
Single sandwich except the brown bits
Tube of white stuff with liquorice veneer round the outside
Coconut monstrosities
Brown single sandwich
Bobbly ones, pink for preference as they match my bike so clearly more enduro.
The batenburg ones!
The orange sandwich ones are the worst with brown a close second
This thread made me buy a bag,

I was too traumatised to post on the actual thread about that abomination. Anyone, [i][u]ANYONE[/u][/i], that thinks that's a good idea needs some serious adjustment.
Cheese is cheese, leave it alone....!
"Military Buttons" are my fave - can't remember the others names(?)
Never been a fan.

Sorry, but this has to go to the abomination that is salt liquorice. The Dutch love it. It is rank.
Salt licorice is AWESOME! I had some lovely salt licorice ice cream when in Sweden a couple of years ago. Mmmmmmm. Black ice-cream!
Nah Turkish Delight takes the crown of rankness. Jelly that's been left in an old ladies wardrobe to soak up the pot pourri scents. Might as well chew on some Dorothy perkins knitwear.
