and if you bit lightly on it for a few minutes it would form to your teeth, creating a bond so strong you could pull tractors around the yard... we used to get those, make em pointy and let them harden for yard fights lol

Ok, but only if you have some Astropops too. I had completely forgotten about those; damn they are good.

I was totally addicted to these, all the way through college. I'm convinced that they saved me from real cigarettes.

I don't know if it's just that I'm getting old, but they don't taste the same as I remember.
 
Butterscotch Balls
Root Beer Barrels
Milk Duds
Sour Grapes (sour jawbreakers)
Orange Slices (Orange gummy coated with large crystals of sugar)
 
razzles are awesome. first they're candy, then they're gum!

best company is ferrara pan. they make grapeheads aka alexander the grapes, appleheads aka johnny apple seeds and orangeheads. those are the best.

most people know them from lemonheads and redhots though.
