To: I still care

I remember fizzies, I loved the root beer flavor! Necco wafers, banana flavored chewy wrapped candy (forerunner of Starbursts), chuckles, Slo-Pokes, Kits, Bit O Honey, Pixie Stix, Black Jack gum or teaberry gum, Root Beer Barrels, bubble gum cigars or candy cigarettes, Bit o Honey, wax teeth, the little wax bottles with liquid inside, Good N Plenty, Sweetarts, jawbreakers and many more!

I wonder if they sell any of this stuff in stores nowaday. My sister was hooked on the big Sweetart.

And don't forget "ATOMIC FIREBALLS", one of *the* hottest candies around, my mouth tingles even now at the thought...

They still sell them. (Well, most of them. I haven't been able to find Grape Duds in years.) There's a number of stores on the net to give you a candy fix as well. You might want to try http://www.oldtimecandy.com/ for most of those listed. (Although most gas stations seem to sell Good & Plenties.)
