I loved em, they actually tasted like flowers, very subtle not very strong. You could make them last forever if you ate them one by one, but because the taste wasn't that strong and they were small I always stuck about 20 in me gob at one Go! - Members Only Jackets
They were called members jackets as only members wore them ;0) - Cheesecloth Shirts
Both my older sisters had these in the early '70s, I can't remember my older brother having one though, and me defo not! Always seen as a throwback to the 60s when they were made famous by certain bands going to places like India. - Donkey Jacket

Oh yes, they were there at parties, they best thing about them was they could also be used as a stool.
