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!
It was fun! A nearby town has a new candy store with old school candy. I no longer enjoy really sweet things, but I brought the kids there for a summer treat. I was surprised to see candy cigarettes. We used to eat/pretend with them in the winter-our breath was the smoke :).
