Zubes

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

1950s cough sweet/remedy. Came in a tin of about 40 pastilles. Had a picture of a horse on the top of the tin. Advert hoardings (no TV then) featured the horse saying, "Hoarse? Go suck a Zube" Anybody remember? Hopalong

    Actually they go back to the 1930s or early 40s. My granddad invented them when he was working for F W Hampshire's in Derby. He also invented Snowfire ointment.
