Over the past years I have always heard that carobs are used for contaception. �For the life of me, am I doing something wrong? I know my DIY is not always right, but these days a bit of slap and tickle really hurts!!!!

Yes,I had a chuckle with that one....
Carob prices were about 26 - 28 cents/kilo but I've been told it is now about 30 cents/kilo
(+ IVA @7% less 2% tax)
If anyone knows of a ' genuine ' better price and where,keep us posted.
