They were the really chemically tasting, squash-like drinks weren't they? I was allergic to something in them (I think it was an E number - also in Crusha milkshake syrup) and the first time I tried one I was horribly ill

Jaysus they were horrific. I dunno how most of us made it out of the 70's in one piece, it was the decade that Health & Safety forgot.

Was it like a ribbed tub with a peel off lid. Used to freeze them to make em last longer.

I didnt like them much myself, which is strange as I was the queen of synthetic sugar based colourful foods. Are Mr Freezes still around?

Tip Top's were great for the thirst. As were Wigwams.
