Like the post said, I’m looking for the original GiantTart Sweet Tart candies. They were fairly thick 3/8" to 1/2" thick and **ONLY** came in Grape or Cherry flavor. They were also individually wrapped. I haven’t seen these for sale in about 15 years. I know they re-released GiantTarts but they were soft and chewy and were Grape, Cherry, Green Apple and Orange flavors. I’m not a fan of these at all. So does anyone know where I can buy a box or 2 of these? MtM ---

SweeTarts, one word, capital S, capital T. [Here you go](http://www.candydirect.com/novelty/novelty45.html), giant standard and giant chewy. ---

I don’t think that’ll do, those are 4 packs and looks like 4 flavors. I want just the grape and cherry variety. MtM ---

No, those are the little SweeTarts, not the giant ones. **McDeath\_the\_Mad** , just give the other two flavors away and enjoy the grape and cherry ones. ---
