B&M shoppers divided over 'nasty' retro sweet treat

Some sweets are a household favourite, like Dairy Milk or M&Ms but others can split a family in two.

And controversial sweeties can cause drama on movie nights when it's someone else's turn to choose.

Now, a heated debated as ripped through a Facebook group when a woman shared the new 'retro' snack she picked up on her latest weekly shop.

Turkish Delight can be the ones left in the chocolate box to rot or in some cases the first to be gobbled up. Posting on a popular Facebook group, a shopper posted a photo of Fry's Turkish Delight Cherry Flavour.

She wrote: "Bought these from B&M for just £1 each."

Although she was chuffed with her latest addition to the chocolate cupboard, not all shoppers were a fan.

One said: "I love turkish delight but i don't think these will be good. The lemon ones were vile."

"I love cherries but these are nasty," another added.

"Gross!", one Facebook user commented.

Another tagged a pal and said, "You're the only person I know who likes this stuff."

However, the original poster is not alone in her love for the delightful-to some-sweet.

"I have to try these. I love Turkish delight," one said.

A second added: "Keep your eyes peeled for these."

"Heaven!!!" A third sweet tooth commented.
