I had an American friend who was mad about Tootsie Rolls and had some sent over here when she lived here for a while. She gave one (only) to me to try, and for me it was a big "So What?!". They were pretty basic, compared to some of the yummy Oz lollies we get.

The nearest equivalent we have would be chocolate eclairs, but the chewy caramel outer layer and choc centres are much nicer than the Tootsie Roll. There are lots of variations of choc eclairs, too.
