First world war, they went from "peace babies" to jelly babies when the second world war started.

Hmm, my information was off. Peace, not Victory. Apologies.

Doesn't really matter what they are called, when it comes down to it all that matters is they are god-damn tasty.

As will I. I rarely fail to have a packet by my computer.

I'm quite concerned that our american brothers don't have access to jelly babies.

**Cannerus_The_Unbearable**

The name really, really bothers me. And what was "minkey" all about?

**Corpsesarefun**

You eat bears, we eat babies.

Are we really that different?

Erm, sorry about that my friends and I have a tendency to transpose vowels... a long running in-joke sorta thing. Hence monkey becomes minkey. Slipped through the 'Talking to people who may not know how odd you are' filter

**Corpsesarefun**

Where are you from andy? Some of my family from around newcastle say minkey rather than monkey too.

**Blackskullandy**

Sadly I'm Northamptonian by birth (don't let that prejudice you though!) Like I say, my mates and I switch vowels around for gaks and giggles... mostly cos we're quite immature!

**Corpsesarefun**

I would judge you but I was born and raised in Swindon.
