Surely what sweets get up to in their own bag is a private matter. But the love between different types of fruit is a truly beautiful thing.

Just make sure Wee Airdrie Jambo and Rixy don't find out that this confectionery is on the market.

Only a Daily Mail reader could be 'outraged' by sweetie wrappers, maybe even Muslim, immigrant, leftie, terrorist, Diana killing sweetie wrappers.

And why was he having an argument with the shop owner, does he think he sits through the back and packs the sweets himself?

FFS - only in this day and age could someone be offended by sweetie wrappers :rolleyes:

Methinks someone needs to chill........ :smokin

Personally, I find those wrappers disgusting.

Poor kids.

Can't believe I never noticed this thread.

I've been saying that about the MAOAM packets for years! They are very cunningly explicit. Just look at the expressions on the faces.

In 2005, having been given compensation of £15 from IRN-BRU after finding orange bits in my drink, I decided to e-mail Haribo with a complaint hoping I'd get a reaction (i.e. some free sweets).

I got two sh*te replies though:





Dear Mr Farrell

manufactured by our sister company in Germany.

We have contacted our marketing department who have in turn, contacted our
german sister factory in order to make them aware of this matter.

and then a few weeks later...


We are looking into the matter and have taken your comments on board.

:yawn:

At least it has finally made the news. Just gutted I never got my free sweets for my, erm, greivances.

If they had such a thing in my day...


It would have been a very smooth intro to a very messy subject.

When I had to watch in a park as two dogs copulated in from of my then bemused but curious six year old daughter, it would have made things easier on that front.

A lassie at my work brought in a few bags of Haribo. They had crocodiles, sharks etc on the packet and those represented the sweets inside. Two of the bags never contained any crocodiles so she sent a complaint and said the kids were disappointed that there were no crocs.

They sent an apology saying that the fault was caused by the manufacturer in Turkey and sent a box of the big bags of Haribos. :thumbsup:
