Smith Brothers Wild Cherry cough drops.

I know, I know, the OP said “candy.” These are, and always have been, candy, to me. Hard to find any more.

Soon’s I get back into a perm home, I’m ordering me another case. (hard to find in stores any more)

Today I saw for the first time in a long time Mallow Cups. I loved them as a child and you could collect the cards and cash them in for something. I almost bought some, but had already checked out when I saw them.
