Jelly Babies

[Austin Mini]

Today I have added 'Jelly Babies' to my arsenal of 'get out of a hypo quick' fixes. Thanks to Northerner for this advice. Looking at the packet four 'jellies' is nearly equal to two exchanges. Cant wait to try them, well perhaps not.

Welcome to the fold - but beware the green ones 😱

Good luck! I can't pace myself with jelly babies, my self control goes out the window when hypo.

When I was a kid we would go to the sweet shop with a sixpence and walk away (after a half-hour choosing) with a weeks worth of sweets. The girls would always be jelly babie heavy but it was sweet cigarettes and chocolate bananas for me. Christmas always got a 'smokers' set of sweets. Dont worry every adult smoked them days, if you didnt there was something wrong with you. Even in hospital you could smoke in bed, yes really!

I'm sure if you were hypo and all you had was a bag of green ones you'd still stuff your face with them 😛 I couldn't even tell you what colours I've eaten when hypo, they're in my hand and swallowed far too fast to tell

Quite the contrary, I usually deliberate over which colour to enjoy as my levels happily dip lower and lower! 😱 I never put myself in the position of only having green ones available!

I have a pot of jelly babies in my handbag...and it only contains red and black ones!!! Me not silly!!

When it comes to the alternative - wine gums - beware the yellow and the green ones!

Edit: Saying that, I like the yellow and green ones. D:

I just don't understand why if you've already got lemon flavour sweets in a packet why you'd even bother putting lime ones in. They're basically the same flavour, why not go for another 'green' fruit like apple or grape?

The Jelly Babies work a treat. Eight of em did the business!

Eight? 😱 I can sometimes get away with one! Good to hear they worked for you 🙂

I am so jealous, mine sit there in the packet saying - eat me, eat me until they go out of date and then coalesce into a sticky mass. Hypo Hypo where for art thou Hypo.

Yes Eight, better safe than sorry. nom nom
