I wanted sweets from the old days of big glass jars in the corner shop, so I bought aniseed balls and cola cubes online, because they are no where in my sleepy town.

I only briefly glanced at the weights and assumed they were about right, and in my giddy, pre sugared state I glossed over the price.

Imagine my surprise when I got a kilo of each.

I have eaten so many aniseed balls everything tastes like medicine, which I also quite like.

    idk if the uk has like, scandinavian food stores or aisles, but if they do you should be on the lookout for djungelvrål and tyrkisk peber. that’s enough ammonium chloride to put hair on anyone’s eyeballs.

    ikea don’t sell them, for some weird reason.
