    Know what I really like though? All the candy that were cigarettes, lmao. Man, I miss the 80's, where anything goes, lol..... no wonder I smoke.

    And gum cigarettes were the best because when you blew on them power would come out in a cloud and it really looked like you were smoking. Great practice for the real thing.

    Of course, if you preferred the manly class of a pipe, they accommodated that too. :lol: SMH.

    top 5 candy of all time

    It is.(now)

    But Punky's were better (RIP)

    Lol, those were terrible! Bleach!

    These, however.... pretty good. At least they were unique - the root beer one was really good.

    Bottle Caps over Punky's???

    I still don't understand how I post my candy to talk about and others just add their candies. Sweet tarts folks, sweet tarts

    I thought we were to post a candy that was in our top five?
    That clown Wonka won't sell the Punky's name/formula to another company because Punky's are too similar to sweet tarts (the obvious reason they were discontinued..and they were apparently also lacking in sales)

    Punky's sooo belong in this thread.

    Kraft bought Cadbury and changed the UK recipe to the same shitty recipe we have in America this past year. And shorted the UK an egg and kept the price the same!

    WAHAHAHAHA!!!!

    USA! USA!

    Right before Kraft bought Cadbury (shares) they (Kraft) assured the public (Amidst the general public uproar!) that NO changes to recipes would be made.

    Perhaps it was just a very unofficial word/assurance that was (said to be) given.

    Yeah, but a smart kid knew to 'smoke' cigarettes, you would inhale, then blow out. Inhaling sugar is not fun...

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    After going candy shopping with my nephews, I came away with a few road food treats. I have to say the Sweet Tarts were awesome. Except the yellow ones, they blow ass and are currently lining Hwy 97 north and Hwy 16 west. As every time I came across one it got tossed out the passenger window.

    Fun Dip is awesome...and I would have been littering the highway with banana runts.

  • It's so weird you call it "swedish fish".

    I'm from sweden, and we don't call it anything special.... they´re just candy shaped as fish. Love the ones that are liquorice though.

    We have gummy fish too, possibly to differentiate. Though I hear the gummy fish in Sweeden are salty. They sell American Sweedish fish at IKEA...next to the Sweedish candy

    top 5 candy of all time

    We sell Swedish Fish three kinds of them but I've never tasted them so I can't comment if they're any good.

    Those were called Popeye Cigarettes in Canada (not sure about the US). No idea why, since he smoked a corncob pipe.

    I go for the Swedish Berries. Same thing, different shape. Yum. I buy them semi-regularly, usually for the movie theatre (smuggled in in my purse of course).
