I remember I used to eat a bunch of those candy cigarrettes.

[JustJon]

I found a place in England on the web this morning that still sells Skull Crushers. Lost the link, I'll have to search it out again.

[KateTheWitch]

I remember that conversation, skullcrush, and I was frustrated because I was in the car and couldn't call in to back you up on that... I distinctly remember those! I used to poke they eyeholes out with a toothpick to make 'em bleed before I ate 'em. :)

Anybody else out there remember Slow Pokes? I loved those things and my mother never wanted me to have them cuz they kept sticking to my teeth.

[The Blowhard]

Loved those Marathon Bars!

Gotta love the dot candy on the paper strip, Fun Dip, Sugar Straws, and of course Pop Rocks!

Piddlers and BJQ's
do it better....

[JustJon]

EMB, you named some of my faves, but the sugar straws were Pixy Stix!!!

<img src="http://www.chaoticconcepts.com/bans/rfjustjon.jpg">

[EffMeBoobs]

Oops sorry JJ that was what I called them when I was little. Thanx for correcting my stupid ass. LOL :)

Piddlers and BJQ's
do it better....

[jafter]

JJ, the little ones were pixie stix and then the had the super ones about 2 1/2 feet long in a thick plastic tube.. Keep you wired for hours.....

Fun Dips were good.

Heckler, remember the original jaw breakers in the box I believe pan ferrara was the company. They also made red hots.

[Mother]

Well...where to start...

ok the better candy mentioned...Marathon Bar

They did stop making it...but from all popular commentary...the Cadbury Curly Wurly bar seems to be indentical

as for Skull Crushers...geez that one was easy...
http://www.thefoodweighouse.co.uk/store/sweets.htm enjoy!

As for me...the perfect old candy...well there are too many...how about pb maxx which is recent old...or then again the reggie bar the old school old. Personally I really miss when Watchamacallit was made without caramel or Bromo candies like Fizz hard candies which fizzed and frothed when you got to the center...and they came in long strips of individually wrapped candies.

EMB yer my hero! Those are my fave candys, especially the dots on the paper and I also LOOOOOOOVe those little bubble gum nuggets that came in mini fruit juice cartons (i think theyre called juice bars)You can only get them at the beach around here, but apple juice and pink lemonade were the best! Damn! =)

[Pootertoot]

No one seems to have mentioned this...

"Sugar Daddy". It's a big rectangular hunk of caramel on a stick. I drool on myself while eating it, because all the saliva required to eat one runs down the length of the bar, out of my mouth, down my chin, and all over myself.

Humiliation by candy. Is there anything better?

[The Blowhard]

What about "Hot Tamales" and "Lemonheads"?
And how can I ever forget "Turkish Taffy"? You would throw it down on the sidewalk to crack it into small pieces.

[Pootertoot]

I don't think anyone mentioned "Good N' Plenty"...that was the closest you got to Candy Masochism...they didn't taste very good, having perfectly cobined the two wonderful flavors of Licorice and Ass, but you couldn't put them down. The white oneswere better than the purple ones, though. Just like light brown and yellow M&Ms are the best M&Ms of all.

There was a great candy bar in the 70's called "No Jelly".
It was a delicious peanut butter bar, but it just vanished.

[Sarutama]

Favorites are:

Lemon Heads/Alexander the Grapes/Cherry Chans

Push pops
Fun dip
Big League chew
Those waz bottles with the watered down kool aid in them.
Red Laces
Caramello (I was right in the middle of a caramello when I found gold! I watched way to much TV growing up)


This wasn't a candy but it still pissed me off. Remeber in the mid eighties hostess had the great idea to put out there snack cakes with a bite missing from them? The story was a bear had bit them in the factory or some shit. Even as a kid I used to think"Hey wait a minute! I spending the same amount of money and getting 3/4 of a cupcake. What kinda bullshit is this?!"

Sarutama


"What?! Huh?! What will come out no more?!"

[sunndoggy8]

Big League Chew was great cause it totally made you feel like a baseball player.

Did anyone actually like Fireballs? They were more an annoying candy than anything else.

Since it's one of my favorite times of the year, Halloween, let's talk about candy! What's your favorite?

Reese's Pieces peanut butter cups!

Emb- peanut butter cups are among my favorites, along with my juicebars of course, but I just found a new candy (well not new, but new to me) that is extra tasty: 100 grands! Yum!

Some excellent choices there, ladies. I pretty much love anything chocolate, unless it has nuts in it. YUCK!

I'll never understand why someone would ruin a perfectly good batch of brownies or a cake or candy or anything by putting nuts in it. I hate 'em!

Thanks again, WWFallon. You are an American hero.

I too dislike nuts immensely. The only nuts I like are pecans, but only in pralines and cream from 31 flavors.

[Gvac]

Know what's really weird? The only nut I like is peanuts, but I hate chocolate and peanuts together. It's a total stand alone taste, for some reason. And I love Toasted Almond ice cream, yet hate almonds. Don't ask.

[EffMeBoobs]

Gwen, RP PBC totally rocks!

Nuts are pretty good in some candy bars like Snickers, or PayDay. I hate walnuts! Ewwww they're even worse in brownies. I also hate coconut in candy bars but I like coconut alone. I'm nuts (hardy-har-har) like you GVAC.

Fizzies...they looked like smarties but when you put them in water they...Fizzed. Exciting, but didn't taste like anything.

I loved Marathon bars (they had a ruler printed on the back of the wrapper) and Charleston chews (with the vanilla or strawberry center).

I was just going to start a thread about this, I'm glad I found it. Anyway, I am sitting here eating some FunDip which I haven't had in forever and it got me thinking about candy I used to love. I also loved Ring Pops, Blow Pops, Swedish Fish, and Pixie Sticks.
On a side note: I also loved candy cigarettes and Big League Chew (gum like chewing tabacco)...think of how we were being targeted to smoke! It's crazy now that I think about it!

CANDY FOAM

We're gonna make a prediction...
Candy Foam will be the biggest thing
since Pop Rocks.

Meet Candy Foam

This odd item wins our coveted
"Most Unnecessary Candy of The Year Award."

When you shake the Candy Foam canister and press the button, tasty candy foam comes flowing out of the nozzle. (If you ever sucked whipped cream from the canister, you get the idea.)

Filling you mouth with Candy Foam is an odd sensation and you look like a psychedelic mad dog.

Yes, we love this new candy. And if you're as warped as we are, you will too!
