Candy thought once dead, now found to be quite alive.(Following up on former thread).

[Mockingbird]

So, after my past thread on candy, I've found some of the candies that people thought were gone.

Skor bars were at my local Circle K.

I found Tart n Tinys and Bottle Caps at Dollar Tree.

Anyone else come across candy that others thought were no longer manufactured?

Am I the only one that saw this headline and thought John Candy had come back from the dead? What a tease!

I'm talented and can make men come back from the dead, but not that way.

I've been seeing Big League Chew around a lot more lately (bubblegum sold shredded and in a pouch, like chewing tobacco. You know, for kids!).

I bought a pack of Bazooka Joe the other day. It was very good and reminiscence-inducing, but loses its flavor much too quickly. *drools over baseball card bubble gum*

Hmm...I saw Fun Dip for sale recently (flavored powder with a sweet chalky white stick that you lick, then dip into the powder, then lick the powder off...repeat. Then eat the stick.)

That's all I can think of at the moment.

[Mockingbird]

Oh... I've also seen ring pops in five packs at Dollar Tree.

Someone in the previous thread remarked on those.

I have good news- the gum you like is coming back in style.

[ZipperJJ]

Ha ha! We're lucky cuz here in Cleveland we have B A Sweetie's (http://www.discountcandy.com/basweetie/default.asp) candy warehouse. They have everything you could ever want :)

And lucky for y'all, alot of the stuff you're looking for is available online (at the site linked to)

You mean this kind (http://www.discountcandy.com/prodorder.asp?CatNo=2226) ? :D

Mockingbird, I live in the absolute sticks, and all the candies you mentioned in the OP are readily available here. I cannot imagine them being hard to find.

You poor dear. Going about inadequately sugared like that. :eek:

You can also find giganto tubs of them at Sam's Club.

They were mentioned by other people as being hard to find, not by me.

[Telperien]

Oh, well. Oops. My mistake. That's what I get for not paying attention.

GOLD RUSH GUM: little yellow nuggets of gum packed in little muslin bags. Still available, although the price has jumped considerably since my youth...
