Honeyfab from Nutrine


 As it happens quite often with me, I got down from the auto near office this morning only to realize that I had no change to pay the autodriver. I hurried quickly to a tiny candy shack-shop nearby, pleading for change. The guy gave me all he had and for the remaining 5 bucks he smartly said 'No change, chocolate kodla?'. Hmmm ok, what should I buy for 5 bucks? Making a decision seemed harder that what I bargained for. I bought some mint, one chewing gum and then I spotted this candy that I hadn't eaten in years... 'Honeyfab' from Nutrine. It has a golden-yellow wrapper that is designed like a honey comb. The dusty glass jar of Honeyfab stood farthest in the row of sweet jars  and didn't seem to have many takers.

I hastily unwrapped the candy and popped it into my mouth, and memories of school came gushing back. The distinct honey and vanilla flavour comes right through and envelops you with a warm, sweet, summery feeling. Oh, I completely forgot! The center has a wacky orange syrup filling. Bitter, sour and sweet, the confection does a complete volte-face from the sweet, smooth experience it starts you off with. A face-off literally.

I enjoyed the sweet momet that probably lasted two minutes. But hey, that dusty glass jar in the corner of the sweet shop now has a taker!
