[net.sf-lovers] Jelly babies

FIRTH%TARTAN@CMU-CS-C.ARPA (06/29/84)

Jelly babies are not at all like jelly beans (does Ronald Reagan REALLY
call them Gelly beans?).  Jelly babies are shaped like little people -
arms, legs, head - and are soft, mildly flavoured, and delicious.  Jelly
beans have a hard shell, much stronger flavour, and are shaped like
beans.

Jelly babies are very popular in England, probably second only to
"liquorice comfits" (somewhat like "torpedoes").  The export of
jelly babies to Gallifrey makes no significant contribution to the
British balance of trade.
