Percy Pigs : Soft Fruit Gums
Yummy
sweets, made for
Marks and Spencers stores
exclusively, and I think only available in the
UK. They're shaped like
pigs faces .. chewy faces .. with yummy little ears.
The back of a packet lists the following
flavours:
I was first introduced to them by a junior school
teacher, Mrs. Bannister, who taught me
Latin and
classics. She gave us vocab tests with Percy Pigs as a
reward for full marks, along with
Jelly Sharks. We all loved Percy Pigs though, and Jelly Sharks were always left in the packet.
The
purist will argue that one should eat the ears first, then the face .. but lately I've taken to sucking on the whole thing until it goes all
gooey .. mmmmmmmm ..
