Ding dongs still exist. https://www.hostesscakes.com/products/ding-dongs/chocolate/

I used to love Nestle Choco-Lite bars. Don't think they're around anymore.

This might be too specific, but I loved the caramel bars that we had to sell for fundraising. I'm 99% sure the brand was Nestle, and they had milk chocolate, crisp, almond and caramel. But the caramel was nothing like Caramello bars, which were way too gooey and messy. These caramel bars were just so good. Sweet and thick caramel. Never been able to find them again.

No longer available…do humor me:

Squeezit drinks (I would probably hate it now)
Pepsi clear

Still available:
Push Pops
Snackwells

Vividly!

$100,000 bars

Big Hunk

Can't really eat them now because they will pull out all my fillings!

Wait, those aren't Canadian? Hah. I grew up with them and Mr. Big and just assumed they were Canadian! You can get them easily in Canada, still.

Oh come on, play along. What are some favorites??

Goldenberg Peanut Chews

Hello, fellow Philadelphian! I remember seeing huge billboards for Goldenberg Peanut Chews. Loved getting them in my bag on Halloween!

I’ve noticed chunky bars are available again, but they dont’ taste as good as they used to.

I used to love marathon bars!

Pixie sticks
Candy necklaces (these tasted best from the roller rink vending machine)
Jolly Rancher stix
Candy dots (the kind stuck to the paper, not the jellies)
Wax bottles filled with sickly sweet liquid (no idea what these were called!)
Charleston chews
Bit 'o honey
Necco wafers
Reggie! bars
Chuckles (black were the best)

Omg +1

It's easy to get them. I buy them all the time at Walmart.

7-11 also has them

My dad used to bring us chocolate cigarettes he bought at the airport when he came home from business trips in the 1960s.
