Lik-m-aid Fun Dip Sour (A Taste of the States) By @SpectreUK

Some bizarre names were added to this product. If Lik-m-aid Fun Dip Sour wasn' bizarre enough, there was Strawberry Smackeroo Dip, Watermelon Whammo Dip, and Tartastic Mystery Dip. Some people in marketing had fun creating those names I suspect, and why not? This Lik-m-aid Fun Dip Sour is supposed to be fun after all.

There were two Lik-a-Stix in the packet, just in case one wasn't enough. Fortunately so too, been as though one of the Lik-a-Stix was broken, but it was a well travelled import product. As mentioned earlier, there were three Sourlicious Flavours; Strawberry Smackeroo Dip, Watermelon Whammo Dip, and Tartastic Mystery Dip.

I decided to try the Tartastic Mystery Dip first, which was bright blue. I thought it might be blueberry, but I ending up thinking it was sour cherry flavour, despite the colour. Why is one of the flavours always cherry? I'm not a big fan of cherry flavour. The flavour of this sour cherry developed the more I ate it. I thought it was strangely masochistically nice.

The Watermelon Whammo Dip was very pink in colour. It tasted like sour watermelon, and again, the taste was stronger and stronger the more I tried it. There was a sherbet taste to begin with, and then sour watermelon with a sherbet aftertaste. This flavour was quite nice, slightly less offensive than the sour cherry, but still not something I'd run out to a shop for.

Strawberry Smackeroo Dip was a darker pink. It smelt like strawberries, which was a good sign. You have to be careful how you smell sherbet though, just in case you get it up your nose. There was a strong strawberry flavour straight away, slightly sweeter and as predicted, it was really good. Not particularly sour though. I had left it until last as strawberry is one of my favourite flavours. I didn't really like strawberries as a child, but I do like them now that ancient. This dip was really nice and moreish, and I would have been quite happy if all three sachets were that flavour. Gosh the strawberry is really lovely.

I managed to eat all three dips using one Lik-a-Stix as it lasted all the way across. I have to admit this Lik-m-aid Fun Dip Sour was fun to eat, and that's what it's all about, I guess. It was a fun dipping sherbet sweet to cheer up the young kids, and to make the old'uns like me feel young. I still preferred the Strawberry Smackeroo Dip above anything else though.
