After a similar conversation, we found that tequila does the same thing...
Sherbert Dabs...
Yellow tube with red writing, half a tube full of sherbert and a stick of liquorice.
You always finished the liquorice stick long before the sherbert, and most of the time, just scoffed the sherbert.
One quiet night shift, a few years back, I'd just finished the liquorice and the conversation turned to 'What if, instead of eating the sherbert, you snorted it?'
That sort of question cannot go unanswered...
I swear, the only way to describe it is: 'Brain fizz'.
Your eyes water and it clears out your sinus's a treat.
Wouldn't do it too often though

Thought of some more last night.
"Fisherman's Friend" - No, don't laugh - these things really are fucking disgusting. It's like eating a small napthalene-impregnated piece of fossilised suede.
"Cool Mints" - Not sure if they still do them, imagine a virgin-intacta polo mint that oddly makes your mouth feel really cold and makes you salivate like a basset hound and causes chronic painful diahorrea if you eat too many of them. Yes, that's exactly what we want in a sweet isn't it!
"McCowan's Milk Chews". Bloody horrible square of what tastes like slightly hardened lard with a flavour like gone-off yoghurt.

You're right - I just couldn't think of a smell that it DOES remind me of. Closest I guess is "Doctor's Surgery Stench" or something.
If you love the smell of Naptha you should come and work here, for some reason I think most of our research students bathe in the stuff (as do most of the academics!)

Bloody chemistry students, lightly par-boil the lot of 'em over a bunsen I say!

I loved Fruit Gums at school! Hell, as a kid I lost a baby tooth to one
1) Fruit Gums. Yellow packet with foil inside, and completely indigestible lumps of multicoloured goo that would stick to your teeth for hours. Always asked my Gran for Fruit Pastilles (which are nice!) but got these instead. Blecchhh!!

Not had 'em in years - too dangerous.gif)
And I disagree with Parma Violets too, they're nice

Sula sweets anyone?
Sugar free boiled sweets that come in a small cigarette-style box.
Very tasty.
The only trouble is, they act as a laxative when you have too many of them.
Honestly, worse than a kebab with all the trimmings! -
