I would have loved to try the real thing

, but short of going to Africa.....

The pills weren't available when I was dieting.
I did share my friends hoodia lollies a few months ago though

, and they were lovely

Especially the choccy ones. They did seem to quell my hunger for a bit, but I think that was more to do with keeping my mouth busy
I was having them as confectionary rather than for appetite control. One of the best non-ice lollies I've tried.
Oh...the lollies aren't suitable when on a VLCD despite what people say
