mmmm Lik-m-Aid, bubble gum cigars and cigarettes, Gold Mine gum (I bought some of that at Blockbusters before Christmas, actually - they were having a "retro" promotion  - my daughter had never seen it!)
Your Smarties are sure different than our Smarties here in Canada. Canadian Smarties ROCK! They're similar to your M & M's, but way better.

when you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last? (ok, I'm gonna have that song stuck in my head all the way to the store to buy Smarties now.)

They are frighteningly good. If you are big on chocolate covered pretzels, then these are a bite of heaven.

I used to live right near the factory that made Lemonheads, Boston Baked Beans, Red Hots, and Atomic Fireballs. You could tell what they were making that day. The whole sky smelled like Lemon or Cinnamon...

Mmmm vig... Boston Baked Beans... an old favorite.
I live in fairly close proximity to Hershey. Cocoa shell mulch is plentiful... the block smells like hot chocolate after a light rain.

I used to really like these, more for the interaction than the taste...

I didn't realize just how regional some of this stuff was. There are a lot of things new to me and I should know it all at my age.
Does anyone remember some large sticks or bars of pretty tasteless taffy that ripped your teeth out every time you cracked off a piece? Strawberry, chocolate, and something else I thnk; probably vanilla.
I always had the little wax, juice-filled Coke bottles. Flavored wax moustaches were popular too. I loved Beemans Pepsin Gum!
Nice sight and I still buy a lot of the stuff pictured.

oh most definitely - we HAD to tie them into knots. They just tasted different if you didn't. LOL
Mel, those Pixi Stix rocked, man. I still have to control myself if I see those at the corner store.
