Old candy favorites

[Auld Phart]

Rarely if ever find these around anymore..

Malt balls, or chocolate covered peanuts?

This pic is of the malted milk balls. But they have the peanuts...double dipped, and the cluster peanuts.

Like them all

I also like the giant malted milk balls, in various flavors, at my favorite candy shoppe

Various flavors?

and sizes

World's "King Size" Candy Cigarettes - 24 / Box

I loved candy cigarettes. Looking back, they were probably a dumb idea, but still...

Those and bubblegum cigars

What do you think these are?

Nothing but the candy version off cocaine, straw included.

Two cent bubble gum....
I'd go up to the Utotem and buy fifty pieces and bring em to school the next day just waiting for the old.."if you didnt bring enough for everyone" It eventually happened of course and there was an office trip after the third time.

Apparently they thought I was being a smartass....

My mother would not let us buy these! So we had to score them from some kids around the block.

Hard to describe. I cant think of anything to compare them to. peanut butter and coconut and sugar. Dry and brittle. Very addicting.

I remember watching a documentary about Halloween that said no actual instances of candy poisoned by strangers ever happened. It was always the parents.

It's possible I might have attempted to try a Pixy Stix like cocaine as a child. On a dare. Possibly.
