Talking Point: The Great Sweet Debate
Created | Updated Feb 26, 2004
When we reach adulthood, many of us experience a change in the way our tastebuds work. Suddenly we crave spicier food and less syrupy drinks than we did as children. But there's still nothing like the pleasure of rediscovering a sweet from childhood that's been repackaged for a new generation.
This week, we want to know about your favourite sweets:
What makes the perfect sweet?
Are you a purist who believes that boiled- or toffee-based sweets shouldn't mix, or are you all for chocolate bars with everything from nougat to nuts in the mix?
Are there ones that you just can't get any more? Do bygone sweets go to 'Sweet Heaven'?
Do sweets get smaller or is it just that we're bigger now?
Have your say in the great sweet debate!
