Does anyone remember Worm Cakes?
They looked a bit like Razzles, those chocolate drops with hundreds and thousands on them......Worm Cakes were slightly bigger........and you were dosed with one of those if you complained of an itchy bottom(threadworms).......the chocolate bit of the wormcake was laxative and the coloured hundreds and thousands were to kill the worms.
I can remember finding a small paper bag with a few of them in.......I ate them thinking they were chocolate sweets(we were never given chocolate).........I won't tell you what the effects were like
