15 Old-School Candies That Need To Make A Comeback

Nothing can bring on a fit of nostalgia faster than wistfully remembering some of your favorite candies you ate as a kid. It’s hard to get kids today to understand that they just don’t make candy like they used to. It can be difficult to explain the exhilarating feeling that accompanied opening a piece of Bazooka Joe and reading the comic wrapped around the near-jaw-dislocating piece of gum inside. However, it’s probably best that they are blissfully unaware of how cool you felt “smoking” a candy cigarette. In this video, we’ve compiled 17 old-school candies that should make a comeback.

Bazooka brings back some great memories for me. Our barber would always end our haircut with the line, ”how about a chew, Hammer?” And then he would give us a Bazooka bubble gum. My brother and I often discuss this very fact when talking about our well liked barber who past 4 or 5 years ago. Funny how such a small gift can instill so many pleasant memories. One of my brothers kept his hair short, like me and got to go quite often to keep up with the tales of Bazooka Joe and blow some bubbles. Such great memories of the barber shop.

Does anyone remember the chocolate candy that was about the size and shape of Reese's peanut butter cups but was called "Cup o Gold? It was chocolate on the outside and marshmallow on the inside and I think it has coconut on top...Really yummy..I think they can still be bought.

I can get almost all of these candies at a store downtown where I live! They sell it by the pound & you can mix up what ever you want! One of my favorites are the Zots! It’s a Southern store chain calls Mast General Store! They don’t have all of these candies but I bet there are at least 95% of these in their stores! I can’t remember the name but I use to love this Taffy that was at least a foot long & it was striped & came in a waxed paper package. It was about 25 cents! Most expensive candy I bought! It was the color of the flavor with a white stripe down the middle. I always got the grape!

I liked the little packets of Lick ‘m Ade & Pixi sticks, the dots that were on strips of paper! Then there were the little wax bottles with flavored juices in them! Plus the bubble gum!!! My parents never allowed me to have any kind of candy! They would tell me that it would make my teeth rot! I saved my 8 cents milk money & bought the junk!!! I’m the only one in the family with good teeth!!! I’m 66 & have perfect teeth! My parents & brother all had bad teeth! Mom had dentures at age 25, my dad at age 40 & my brother had the worst over bite you ever saw, wore braces for 10 years!!! I showed them!!!! I still buy all those favorites when I can find them!

To be honest I think he kind of already know it and he just went with it. I miss these good old days, for sure they were. Great times and great memories Plus some fun times too
