Do they still sell these in shops? Used to love them when I was a kid! If not does anyone know if they still exist and if they can be ordered online from anywhere?

Is this a drink in a squeezy plastic bottle?

No! They were chewy sweets that had little sour crystals in, they were amazing!

They were a spin off of 'fruitella' if I remember correctly.

Probably a limited edition thing.

They do still exist, I'm sure I've had one in the last half a year at least...

I reckon any newsagent that sells that sort of sweet will have some.

Really? They were about for a good few years. Orange, apple and strawberry were the main three flavours, then I remember them releasing some random yellow and purple ones i think.

Wow I can't believe I forgot about them. Fantastic sweets, probably too much sugar and colouring to be sold these days. Found the old advert for them. Who are these guys, I'm sure they were on kids TV or something...

Edit: A quick Google reveals they were Trev and Simon from Going Live *nostalgia explosion*
