Choco'Lite!
@patrickbrent642 3 ай бұрын
Just one?!!? Boy, that's tough...as far as the ones in this video it would be a toss-up between Marathon and Choco-Lite. But since I loooove caramel it would have to be Marathon! And even though I'm a diabetic now, if every candy I loved as a 70s kid were to come back just as they were then (to Hell w/ "reimagined" and "rebooted") I would still buy nonetheless...would just have to be a little more careful is all!

What about the 10:30 bar? Zots? Milkshake? Man, the 70s was the Golden Age for so many things: music, cars, clothes, food, and...candy!!! I was born in 1970 and it was a great time to be kid, a great time to be alive but unfortunately I didn't get to be an adult then (I had to to wait til the 90s when things started to suck). But yeah, I remember my sister and I would go to the drug store w/ a dollar or so and come back w/ a brown bag full of candy. Wouldn't trade that for anything! 70s forever!!!!

Good eye there! Whoever edited the video together got confused. In the UK back then, their Marathon Bar was the same as our Snickers. Our Marathon Bar was (and still is) a Curly Wurly Bar. Whoever edited this didn't pay too close attention to what was in those clips, because quite a few were for the UK Marathon Bar. FWIW the UK changed their Marathon Bar name to Snickers in 1990.

The gum comercial at 17:07 was actually advertising a different brand called "Hubba Bubba" just introduced in the 70s. Their claim was you could blow double the size bubbles and they won't stick to your face. The comercial was set in the west as someone announced "ut oh, there's gunna be a gum fight". Two "gum fighters" would square off, start blowing a bubble, one would pop first and stick to their face, since the other's bubble was bigger, it would pop last, then they would remove the gum with no problem or mess. I remember squaring off with my friends trying to act out the commercials. 😂
