Now or Laters.

Also, we always hated when we got a box of boston baked beans. Those things were terrible.

I like all of those except the Circus Peanuts (although I do like the candy coated marshmallow easter eggs)! Necco wafers are one of my favorites.

Those chalky candy things that were shaped like skeleton bones in a small clear package

Yes! You could try to make a body if you got enough bags.

Fireballs

Candy bracelets in the same bag as the skeleton bones

Wax containers that were filled with juice. A veeeeery small amount of juice.

There was a 100 Grand candy bar that had peanuts, chocolate, and caramel. Is that what you're thinking of?


THese are in my variety bag of Halloween Candy I bought at Target last week.

Yes! It was my fave.


100 grand does not have peanuts it has crunch bar bits like a crunch/krackel bar.

to add to the list:

nerds (still around but not as abundant)
pixie sticks
fun dip
bit o honey
almond joy and mounds
butterfingers
baby ruth
crunch
weird flavored tootsie rolls like cherry, orange, and vanilla
sweet tarts
blow pops (only get tootsie pops now) and gum in general
sugar babies
sugar daddies
red hots
warheads
fireballs


Were there Coke flavored tootsie rolls at some point? I feel like I'm remembering that.


There were little bottles of Coca-Cola that you could eat. Anyone else remember this?

Fruit flavored tootsie rolls. I remember loving the cherry ones.

Wax bottles with sweet liquid inside— you would bite the top off and spit out the wax. Then you would drink.

Wax lips

Wax gum— yuck!

Never EVER would you get a full sized candy bar

Family down the street would pop popcorn and the whole neighborhood would stick their grimy hand in the bowl to take some.

Does anyone remember the big jolly rancher sticks, they were flat and the same length as a candy bar?

I remember those wax bottles! I don't think it was juice. I think it was colored sugar water.
