I don't know what exactly happens when you put this stuff in your mouth. I don't know what causes the crackle but it's fab. I dare you to take a packet into an important meeting and pour some into your mouth, when there is a moment of quiet. Then slightly open your mouth and listen to the crackling, happening independently of anything you are doing. I could do this for hours on end, just crackling.
As a kid I would have 10pence a week for sweet money, which I would mostly spend on 1 pence chews, but sometimes I would blow 5 pence alone on a packet of space dust, now called Fizz Wizz. Then get home to the chair in front of the TV and sit crackling to Tom and Jerry, Top Cat, Blue Peter, Rhubarb and Custard or whatever happened to be on.
