Does anyone remember a candy called Norlights? It was some sort of fruit flavored gelatin candy that I could only get in canteen at camp in upstate NY in the 80s. I really loved that candy, and am wondering if it reincarnated in some other form.

Nope, sounds like some kind of Gummie Bear to me.

Hhmmm...Google returns absolutely nothing on that. You could only get it in one location, camp??? They weren't drugging you or something, were they??

OK, it's been a few years since I posted this, but the search for answers never ends.

I found out that I wasn't imagining things - Norlights was a candy produced by Ludens in the 1980s:

I found an ad in a trade magazine:

The quest is over, but I'm still curious. does anyone remember them besides me?

They're ringing a faint bell after seeing the pic. Did they have a powdery coating?
