Talk:Victory V

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] The "other" lozenge

Victory V, Altoids, and Fisherman's Friend are all 200-year-old British lozenges with a robust flavour. However, Victory V has slipped into near-obscurity, which is a shame, because we need more info here about:

  • History of the product. It's long.
  • Why the name Victory-V? Which war was it? It was supplied to troops for a long time.
  • Varieties: regular, gums (no longer made), medicated (which is the only variety now made, unfortunately, but is no longer marketed as such), etc.
  • Chloroform. Why and when wsa it removed?
  • Pictures of the product, including historic containers. These are collectibles, there should be plenty out there.
