    Chubba Chubb Lollipops.



    Can someone please help me remember a type of lollipop?
    They were orange lollipops in this simple design : http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR6kKgZyokqd8149JFdiRwnvpJNrKt3oxaNEFWumK6tkWekBIkOGg&t=1
    except that they were a darker orange, not see through, and very fizzy/tangy and had a picture on their clear outer wrapping.
    Possibly a pic of a sun wearing sunglasses?

    bags of Emerald sweets [chocolate]
