Speaking of Tang (shudder! ) and astronaut viands , do you remember Space Sticks? (or was it Space Stix?) Chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry IIRC, softer than Tootsie rolls and much larger. I kinda wish the nostalgia industry would bring them back, if only briefly, just so I can try them again-I think I was 8 or so when I last had one.

I don't know that I ever had a Space Stick. Is this the box? Were they good, or did the interest lie in the novelty?

Space Food Sticks. (One out of three of those words is correct)
They were basically a starchy Tootsie roll, less chewy. (I would guess that corn starch and corn syrup were the primary ingredients.) Their only redeeming quality (to a kid) was that they were sweet.
I don't remember hating them, but I certainly don't remember begging for them a second time.
