Hey! I'm Alanna - a twenty-something documenting my life as a Canadian living in England.
I share the ups and downs of an expat living abroad and what it's really like living in the UK. It's not always easy, but there's been so many wonderful experiences, too. I post a RU-vid video every Tuesday & Friday plus an additional video every Saturday on my Patreon account. I also livestream every Wednesday and Sunday at 5:30pm GMT on Twitch.

When I was a kid about 70 years ago the 'white sticks' actually had a red tip and were actually called 'candy cigarettes'. It was only after the anti-smoking campaign started that they stopped calling them this. We also were able to buy 'candy tobacco'. Long strings of coconut covered in cocoa powder and sugar.

@ronfehr7899 2 года назад

I also remember the time when they were called candy cigarettes. Although I've never smoked, I do remember having them.

@Bodneyblue 2 года назад

I'm not that old..but still remember both...But you understand why they have changed things like that. As it is my father died from smoking related conditions...he was just 47.

@tonys1636 2 года назад

In the UK they were called sweet cigarettes and came in a pack that looked like a pack of 10 cigarettes, even had a 'cigarette card' inside. There was also chewing gum ones wrapped in a 'cigarette' paper. The good old days when PC was a copper and Health & Safety didn't exist. Just common sense.

There used to be a brand of drink called Top Deck, which was a low alcohol mixer drink, Beer Shandy, Lager & Limeade, Cider Shandy, these were available to buy at corner stores, newsagents etc with a 2% alcohol content, it was marketed primarily to children 😁 And the cans even carried the Royal Warrant of Appointment of the Queen, like Twinings Tea or Cadburys.

Those candy sticks that Canadian bairns pretended were cigarettes? When I was a wee laddie, many, many years ago in Scotland they were actually marketed as 'sweet cigarettes'! They even had one end dyed red for the full effect. It seemed perfectly normal at the time... Edited just to say that I literally burst out laughing when you discovered the liquid in the camel bollock. Always worth watching an Adventures and Naps video right to the end- that's where the good tuff is!

Hi Alana, Thanks for another entertaining video. The blue raspberry rip roll reminds me of a candy I had when I was a kid called Fruit by the Foot. But if I remember correctly, I think it came in a plastic tape dispenser so it wouldn’t accidentally unroll into a big mess. I also ate Fruit Roll Ups as well. They unrolled into a sheet with perforated shapes like stars on it, that you would pull out from the sheet and eat, then you would be left with a stencil that you could use to draw shapes with, or just eat it. I always just ate it and I didn’t know anyone who actually used it as a stencil even though it was advertised on tv for that use.

I actually once used those candy sticks as prop cigarettes in a school drama lesson 😆 Also, don't know if they still exist, but we used to have Fruit Winders.

Shandy is a classic British drink that you can buy in shops and pubs, where it is mixed on the spot. It can be drunk by kids so long as its bellow 2% ABV, which makes it taste like beer flavoured lemonade rather than the other way around. BTW anything in a can is not worth drinking.

You should try the Malt beer/Malt drinks that are available. The sweet black drink that despite the name is alcohol free, that you usually can only get in corner shops or minimarts. Usually they are in little bottles, but sometimes also in cans. And Malt Loaf, Soreen or another brand. That's a taste experience. Quite nice sliced with butter, and alarmingly cheap for the calorie content.
