Trick-or-Treat Memories From the Past

Today while digging through a bag of candy at work, I started thinking about the treats that I received while going from door to door in Livonia. Here’s a list of my favorites:

• Fun Dips – who didn’t like sugar sticks dipped in more sugar?
• Candy Cigarettes
• Teaberry and Black Jack gum – I can still taste the licorice…can you?
• Sugar Daddy’s
• Candy Buttons – half the time you ended up eating the paper, but it didn’t matter!
• Charleston Chew
• Wax Bottles and Wax Lips – who cared about the liquid…it was more fun to chew the wax!
• Chuckles
• Boston Baked Beans – this one was a trick to make kids think they liked beans!
• Bit-O-Honey
• Necco Candy Wafers
• Fruit Stripe gum – the flavor lasted for what, 4.5 seconds?
• Pop Rocks – yes…I drank a Coke with them in my mouth, didn’t everyone?
• Razzles

Do you have a candy from the past that you’d like to share?
