Who remembers Fruit Tingles? Those little circles of sugary treat that fizz and bubble in your gob? A true Aussie childhood classic. What’s your favourite colour? Share your memories here.
 
Fruit Tingles rang a poor 2nd to the good old "Herbert Bombs" but they were easier to conceal inside your school pants
 
I liked them all... you can still buy them but they aren't as tingly today as they were
 
I liked them all but my absolute favourite was the ones with all the specks of flavour. I would get so excited and save them till the rest of the packet was empty. Truth be told I still do it now 😁😁

There wasn't enough room in my school pants....
 
I'm nearly 70 and still enjoy a packet during the week.
