Chapter 1: What nostalgic travel sweets do the hosts reminisce about?
Hello and welcome to our podcast, The Junkies. I'm Dave O'Neill.
I'm Kitty Flanagan. This is the Sweet and Salty Roundabout. Get on board with Possum, that's me, and the big guy, that's him. Choo-choo. Choo-choo. And that's the train that you're getting on board.
Choo-choo.
Except this week, we're not starting off with a chewy. It's more a sucky lolly, isn't it?
Travel sweets. Travel sweets. Like your nan used to have in the glove box.
Oh, I love a travel sweet.
I mean, that was always the best thing about getting in the car with your nan. You go, have you got any travel sweets? And she always had a tin. Of lollies. And that was the best thing about it, wasn't it? The tins?
The tin was great. It put a high status on it, kind of.
Yeah, made them classy.

Chapter 2: Which new chocolate bars are being reviewed?
We had the licorice filled ones. They were down, down to Vomitown.
Now, interestingly, there's two different rivals. There's the Simpkins brand. Yes. And the one that I know better is Cavendish and Harvey. Yes. They're the ones I see most of. Yes, yes. But I found all these Simpkins ones.
And the licorice ones were German by memory. Yeah, they were German.
Yeah, they taste like that salty Dutch licorice. Okay, where do you want to start, Dave?
Well, let's just start at the start.
At the tropical fruit end?
So have we got different fruits there? Because the fruit drop ones are great, you know, when you get the pear one. Yeah, the pear is the best one.
The pear is the best. Okay, so let's see what flavours are in here. Pineapple. It's not going to tell you. That's the beauty of the tropical fruit drop. You just have to guess. In the picture, there's a pineapple, there's a passion fruit, and there's a lychee.
Oh, I don't want lychee. So you don't want any of them? No, no. I'm going to try lychee. I love how it's dusted in icing sugar or whatever it is. What have I got? Grapefruit or something?

Chapter 3: What exciting new gummy products are introduced?
Hopefully these are better. He's got high hopes.
Oh, look at that.
Is it half? Oh, you'll like this.
Oh, yeah. They are great.
That's almost a sweet, sweet memory jug of that flavour.
Look at that.
Adding the cream to the strawberry is just top notch.
Great combination.
Oh, that works really well. Yeah, it tastes like strawberry ice cream.

Chapter 4: What are the hosts' thoughts on the Simpkins and Cavendish & Harvey candies?
A bit sharp?
Mmm, sharp tasting.
I mean, the mistake I've made there is that we should have ended with strawberries and cream.
Oh, it's getting better.
Yeah.
Five minutes later.
I think it gets better.
Mmm, it's getting better.
You get more of the custard.

Chapter 5: How do the hosts feel about the Skittles Cloudz?
Yeah, you know what they taste like? Peppermint oil. Oh, yes. Which is what they're flavoured with.
Yes, yes, yes.
It has actually got real chocolate in it. I was going to say maybe it hasn't got real chocolate in it. I don't mind it. They just taste like an old-fashioned... There's some lolly they taste like. They taste like a snifter. Remember snifters? The mint thing? The mint nougat but with the chocolate bits?
Yes, that's what they do taste like. But travel lollies, great. Lollies and tins, always good.
Always good.
Always good.
Okay, well, you take the strawberries and cream. I know you'd like those in your car.
Oh, yeah, you bet. You have the rhubarb.
You might come to a rhubarb and custard one day. Oh, maybe I'll put them in my car.

Chapter 6: What criticisms do they have about Skittles flavors?
You could occasionally buy them at a chemist or somewhere like that.
There were some strange brands that started with a T. Yes, they were.
Yeah, they are.
Up next, we've just got a new chocolate bar.
Oh, and these ones? Are we doing these things?
We're doing those last because we need to break up the sugar with some chocolate.
Oh, hang on. And also, we've got to throw it back.
Ah, yes.
That's the final segment. The final segment.

Chapter 7: What unique flavors are found in the new Jaritos Gummies?
No?
Okay. Same people, I think. Pretty sure. All right. Positive. Okay, so let's do the Aero Caramel first.
Let's do Aero Caramel.
I mean, sometimes you feel like you're just getting air, but I suppose that's what Aero is.
I liked the strawberry one.
Well, the strawberry one was fantastic.
Yeah.
Absolutely. And caramel's a good flavour, so, ooh.
I do like chocolate and caramel. How much does it smell like a crunchy? I almost feel like that's going to change the colour of my day. Change the colour of your crunchy. I bet you like that. That is so sweet.

Chapter 8: What final thoughts do the hosts share about their candy tasting experience?
No, I've not had this. I wasn't expecting that. I thought it was going to be a big piece of clinker.
There's a little bit.
Of different colours. It's all chips.
It's clinker chips.
Oh, yeah, yum. I don't know, Dave. Because the whole thing with the clinker is what flavour did I get? What colour did I get? Now, I'm getting all the colours at once.
I don't know what's going on. I don't know what's going on at the clinker factory.
I'm a bit overloaded.
They used to be good. It's still pretty good, isn't it? It's still good though.
It's really good. They do something like this and you wonder why did they bother with that more range?
