I realize that for some of you, this won’t be much of a stretch. I go back pretty far, so try to fool me by naming real products you think I may not have heard of. Even if they don’t make them anymore. This should be fun. I’ll start things off with Bonomo’s Turkish Taffy, Zero Bar, Hollywood Bar, Blackjack chewing gum, Mike Ike’s, jujubes, sen-sen. Okay, your turn…….

I used to love to go to Lemaster’s Grocery in Hermosa Beach, CA and get penny candy. You had to point it out in a case, like at a bakery and the owner put it in a bag - though he wasn’t very patient.
M M’s have been around for years Juicy Fruits, Abba Zabba’s–loved Good Plenty’s….oh yeah like you said BlackJack chewing gum. Great stuff. And I loved the wax lips, moustaches and teeth we would get at Halloween…..we’re talking late 50’s early 60’s.
i ♥ skittles, mms, starburst, anything with chocolate in it, lollipops, jolley ranchers, tootsie rolls, practically EVERTHING!!
Hmmm. I go back to rationing in war time, when you were happy — more than happy, you were overjoyed — to get candy or snacks of ANY kind.
MacIntosh Taffy has been a favorite for many years…..
MARS BARS. I have been craving them forever. Last time they ever sell was in airport once, but they wouldn’t let me buy because they were only selling to passengers . Duty free.
And do you remember Crunch Tators, the bag of Lays looking potato chips with alligator on front of bag?
