red frog

English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters red frog
I've not had a red frog in bloody 30 years.

The conversation is between two men who did some drugs and have few shots. Unfortunately, there is no further context related to the sentence above.

Thanks in advance,

No much action. But I think it is Gelatine sweet because they seem to eat something. Thank you all.

What does it say before and after this? That's the context.

Type of red sweet in the shape of a frog

Without much more in the way of context, I found this. (Links also have pictures of the sweet - lolly/jelly sweet)

"Red Frogs Australia is a non-profit support program, reaching across Australia and the globe, with a mission to provide a positive peer presence in environments where young people gather, educate young people on safe partying behaviour, and empower them to make positive choices for their future...Allen’s is a key partner of Red Frogs Australia, and each year donates more than 24 tonnes of Red Frog lollies. The Allen’s Red Frog lolly is used by Red Frogs’ volunteers to share a smile and start a conversation. When the lolly is handed to someone, it stops being just a lolly… it sends a message that we care, you matter and we believe in you."

"Founded in 1997, Red Frogs Australia has helped change the face of Schoolies, shaping a peer-led culture where mates look out for mates.
Armed with red frog lollies as icebreakers and pancakes to feed pre-loaders, they’re now a much-loved and trusted part of schoolies culture.
Volunteers are often invited into parties as well as walking the streets, they operate live-in teams at hotels because “30-floor buildings aren’t the safest places” when booze and inexperience is involved."

"Meet the man committed to saving Schoolies - one red frog at a time...What is it about red frogs that opens doors and breaks the ice like nothing else? Even Andy Gourley is unsure - all he knows is that the lollies work... The Red Frog volunteers encourage drinkers to have one sober person in their group, to never hesitate to call 000 if a mate is ill due to drinking or drug use, and they also educate students about other services (like mental health hotlines) they might not be aware of."
