I was in Jr High during the fireball fad. Our tongues were all fried from them. Not any young entrepreneurs among us, we all bought our own at the local gas station.

We’d buy fireballs at the convenience store where the summer camp bus would pick us up every morning. Fun times.

Wintergreen Lifesavers were all the rage for sleepovers. You were supposed to turn off the lights and chew them in front of a mirror to see green sparks. Try as we might, I never saw sparks.

Have you noticed, chewing gum is now plastic-y? Ugh.

Candy and childhood used to be fun. Now the libs have ruined it.

Bring back yard darts, pop guns and clackers!
