My own fave was Sour Bites, easy to find in the 80s in the U.S., but perhaps now gone forever. I miss them because they were like SweeTarts, only better tasting IMO and didn't rough up my tongue the way those other candies did.
They came in flat envelope-like packets, and each small tablet within bore the face of a cartoonish animal - lion (also on the package front), hippo, etc.
Oooh, how I miss them... |
I don't remember the name but there used to be a mint which came in a metal can. The mint was white and it had a large X on each round mint. My great grandfather would always give them to the younger members of his family who came to see him and as children it was a very special treat.
If anyone remembers the name or knows if they are still available please do tell me. The last time I am sure they were available was almost forty years ago.
