When I was a kid, Hershey bars were a nickel, gas was 17 cents a gallon and a full size Chevy Impala was about a grand.

Although not a Hershey, I favored the Necco Skybar

and the Mallo Cup

Oh yeah, almost forgot the Bun Candy Bar.

Mallo Cup = most disgusting creation ever devised.

Sorry. Bad experience with that one. Uncle bought one for me and I thought it was a Reese ripoff. I chomped down and UGH.

Bun is good though :)

The Bun candy bar factory was located right next door to my Dad's business in Fort Wayne back in the 70's. Got many free samples when we would visit the front desk and boxes of them around the Holidays... good times!
