Hi, Can you remember the name/brand of the chewing/bubble gum that came with a liquid centre? Probably late 70s but more likely 80s. I seem to remember one line had a sweet cinnamon flavour. Thanks! Stephen

Black Anglo Bubbly

by michaelp

The Anglo bubblegum that was black….. Liquorice I think, but in the same packaging as the original!

  1. Angie remembers: -

    Yeah I remember them! They were called Spook. Round liqourice flavour black chewing gum, they made a heck of a mess if the bubble you blew popped over your face!!

Tasted like germolene in a white wrapper always got a tattoo inside!

  1. Toria remembers: -

    Yep I remember them well. Pink, germoline tasting.
    Each had two smiley face tattoos with different expressions – yellow face with blue border and features. They did come in a white wrapper but I can’t remember what they were called or who made them.

Can’t remember if it was hubba bubba or the other one. I remember it from about mid to late 70′s.

Germoline bubbly?

by michaelp

Distinctive germoline taste and a free tattoo to make you look hard! Had a smiley yellow face on it.

  1. Bump remembers: -

    Yeh – Germoline bubbly – I’ve just been asking random people at work and only one person remembers it. ! The maddest thing ever when you think about it, I mean, it’s like having furniture polish flavour chocolate bars?!?

This is the original flavour that dissappeared years ago. Red packet with pink bubbles on it……

  1. Saqib remembers: -

    It is still available in Canada.

He got a voucher for the site from some of his other mates, and was in the process of overdosing on Sherbet Lemons and Raspberry Skulls when I arrived. Naturally we got talking and realised another favourite from long ago that needs to [...]

Bobby’s Bubblegum

Am I getting the name wrong? When I was at High School in the late 50′/early 60′s I used to buy a bubblegum that I think was called Bobby’s Bubblegum. It was an oblong pink piece with white dusting on it and the wrapper was white with green writing on and the name, and I [...]
