I always wondered how "Moxie" tasted. That was one of the first soft drinks.

Vile, truly vile. I came across some in one of those supermarket-sized liquor stores a couple of years ago, and got a bottle because I'd seen a segment on Moxie on the History Channel. I really can't describe the taste; maybe something like used motor oil mixed with turpentine.

Thanks! I always heard it was an acquired taste. I saw that special also.

The other candy I always had (and don't see nowadays) was Bonamo Turkish Taffy. In Strawberry, Chocolate, Banana, and Vanilla. Skybars were another favorite.

I saw a special on I think the Food Channel, and my kids were amazed when I told them the order of the stuffings in Skybar. I always gave away the peanut butter one, next to last in the bar.
