They still sell them in my neighborhood. I had no idea they once had almonds on top (imagine that, with the soft peanut brittle interior enrobed in rich milk chocolate). I remember vaguely that they were once made by Ludens (who also made the cough drops).
Yeh..when Luden’s made them they had almonds on top.
(odd- a company known for cough drops making a candy bar, huh?)
They were SO good!
I live in Corpus Christi, Tx and it is rare that I can still find a 5th Avenue.
