I only remember the Now And Later.

I looked at a nostalgic candy site. That actually sell those awful "Boston Baked Beans" if you remember those.

Red coating over peanuts.

those awful "Boston Baked Beans"

Yes! Isn't it strange how one remembers such insignificant things. Of course, when you're a kid, candy is not an insignificant thing, especially if you were raised by a mother who refused to buy candy for fear it would rot teeth. Until I started earning my own money at age nine, I very rarely got any candy. That's probably why I'm such a sugar addict now. As usual, it's my mother's fault.

Gawd, those things were bad. They used to have 'em in the gumball dispensers at the grocery store. After I tasted the vile little things, I understood why the glass globe on that dispenser never looked like it needed a refill.
