Remember them well, always had them when you had a sore throat Can’t remember if they helped the sore throat or I just liked the taste of them!

Yes, I remember The Irish Moss jubes. There were a few different brands and I can still remember the TV ad jingle for one of them. I could sing every word!

My Nana always had a packet of Irish Moss and a packet of Rennies in every handbag. As kids we were often treated with an Irish Moss for behaving. The strong sweet minty smell of the lollies is still a good memory for both myself and my younger sister. We tried to find them last year as a bit of a walk down memory lane, but no luck.

I always had Irish Moss & Throaties on hand. Loved them, loved there flavour.
And most times I didn't have a sore throat or cold.
