Created in 1865 in England, the fishermen's friends are still around today. If they were not effective, they would not be as popular as they are.They taste disgusting, but are very effective for sore throats. Such is their reputation that they require little marketing, people remember them from their youth, and when your throat feels sore, these are just the job!

Fisherman's Friend Lozenges always worked for me. They remind me of my grandfather...he always used to have these around.

I know many singers who swear by them.

These are about seven kinds of nasty, but do they ever work.

Probably the best lozenges I have ever tasted! If you live somwhere, where the winters are cold, harsh or foggy, or all of the above, then Fisherman's friend is perfect. I' ve been using them for ages, and they are a real help during a foggy day, with all that smog on the streets. Definitly try it!

This works extremely well, although it tastes strong. Use these if gargling with salt water is not convenient.

why does the nasty stuff always work? they aren't the greatest tasting in the world, but they do work.

If you have too many, you'll start to taste more of the bitter eucalyptus than their artificial flavors. But nothing works as well as these. Pop one in the mouth and you can really feel your congestion being cleared. Great for singers. Never be without a friend!

These are great-tasting and great-working lozenges. A great doctor once told me that these were much better and would be much more effective and efficient for a person with a sore throat and cold than Halls or any other lozenge out there. I still like Halls, but I have these too. Sadly no lozenge can really make a sore throat feel better.

It really is amazing how well these little buggers work they pack a real punch. Stuffed up nose, clogged sinuses? Take one of these Altoid sized lozenges and Fisherman's Friends will clear it right up. The perfect quick fix, they take effect within minutes and are no more encumbering to carry around than a packet of candy. **NOTE** does not go well with orange juice.
