TWIZZLERS, TWINKIES, LUCKY CHARMS… but where to get them?

We’ve found out.

1. Twinkies

So they’re more foam than food, but there are quite a few places that sell them, albeit at high prices. But if you’re gagging for one… head to…

• Some large branches of Tesco, most definitely the one in Maynooth if you can get out that far.
• Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe, Dame Street
• Fallon and Byrne, Exchequer St

2. Red Vines and Twizzlers

You may know them as red liquorice, but they’re so so much more.

• Fresh supermarkets, your dear writer has been known to stock up in the Camden Street branch. They sell the grape ones here too.
• Candy Lab, Temple Bar
• Fallon and Byrne, Exchequer St

3. Hersey’s Chocolate

Why would you want this.

• If you’re in Ranelagh head to Mortons.
• Topaz garages.
• Centra
• Spar
• Stick to Cadbury.

4. Mountain Dew

So essentially, this is just a fancy 7up. The brand was initially just a myth to us Irish kids, but they have since launched a version in some select Irish shops.

• Your best bet is the larger chain shops, like Centra and Spar. The Temple Bar and Dame Street branches usually have them stocked.
• Some of the central Euro shops also stock them, such as Euro 2 on George’s Street.

5. AW Root Beer

• Central Spars and Centras, like Dame Street and Temple Bar on the quays.
• Fallon and Byrne in the fridges.
• Pablo Picantes in Temple Bar.
• DiFontaines on Parliament St.
