Two weeks ago I came through Heathrow on a business trip, and bought an enormous box of Jelly Babies (900 g.) I really couldn't find a normal size bag, so was forced by circumstance to buy the enormous box. (They made me do it.) I have been limiting myself to a small handful every day or so, but today -- I was alone in the house, and the jelly babies began to call me using their little jelly voices. They didn't like being in the box, and they wanted to achieve their little jelly martyrdom. So I finished off the box all by myself. Now I feel a bit sick, but I also miss them. I hope they are happy in jelly baby heaven.

Happens to me all the time with Chocolate.

Awww..... They may come back yet.

Eugh.

To OP: I don't blame you. If I were you, I'd blame US customs for failing to confiscate what is clearly a dangerous consignment.

Wine Gums for me.

Same here.....especially big boxes of Maynard's Wine Gums.

I'm ordering a "Care Package" this week.


Jim.

hmm jelly babies ... feet first or head first ?

I like jelly babies. I hope that you fell better soon. They are in a good place now.

it's kinder to eat the heads first.

I'm like that, but with beer.

Always, first you bite the heads off. Don't forget to sing the little worm song as you go

Happens to me all the time with Rowntrees fruit gums!, luckily I can buy them in the Meijers store in Bloomington,IL, in the International Food aisle!
Don't give in to the craving all the time,just occasionally!

Bet you didn't save me any did you

one mention of jelly babies and the entire forum gets lost in wistful daydreams about gelatin.

Fruit pastels or chewits get me every time!!
