Sixlets, lemon heads, red hots, rinky dinks, and atomic fireballs. What was those long tubes of suger? The tubes had stripes on them.

A lot of these candies can be found. Go to Fresh Market or Calandro's. They both have a "nostalgic candy area". Calandro's has candy cigarettes. I pretended to smoke them in the 80's and I never picked up smoking as an adult.

I miss Freshen Up gum! I've never been able to find that.

Zero Bars



Still in gas stations everywhere around here they're my favorite candy bar ever


Chick-O-Sticks too. Had one last weekend. And I'm pretty sure Mary Janes are still around.

Dollar General sells Cow Tales. I have to buy 2 packs/bags because I will have one finished in the 5 minute drive home. They also have Goetzes caramel cremes which are basically the same thing. Sometimes I just get one bag of each. Best candy ever when you're fricked up.

They also have cotton candy in plastic Tupperware like containers that's pretty good. I can go into Dollar General with a $5 bill and rack up.

Not sure if this qualifies as candy but I think it applies to this thread.
