[BZeto]

Laffy Taffy was better when it came as the thick squares.

 

[racolvin]

Pixie Stix .. and not the small paper ones either, I'm talkin the 3ft plastic tube ones
Sixlets were great too, when they started coming in larger packages

 

[bolomite]

Lemonheads
Sour Patch Kids

for chocolate bars, what ever happened to the Mars bar? I can't find it anymore.

 

[KeithTalent]

Blue Dolphins and they also came in Whale form.

and

Swedish Berries.

Pretty sure I can still get both of these, but they were always my favourite when I was a kid.

I liked those miniature wax bottles that you ripped the top of with your teeth and drank the bit of sugary juice on the inside. Can't remember the name. Anyone?

Lemonheads
Alexander the Grape (Grape version of Lemonheads)
BB Bats
Big League Chew (grape again was best!)
Bottle Caps (woot Rootbeer and cola ones )

Pixie Sticks! I would get a buzz from them.

Also that toffee candy shaped like little people, animals, firetrucks...

And my favourite bubble gum: Black Cat.

Dang, I haven't seen Astropops in a while. And root beer bottle caps were the best. Don't forget about Pop-Rocks!

 

[QueBert]

Now N Laters - not the crap ones they have today.
PB Max

I would KILL for a PB Max right now.

 

[dennilfloss]

What we called those big 1" black gum drops during the 60s would be totally unPC nowadays: "n***** balls".

 

[coloumb]

Wax candy [filled with something like koolaid]
Cinnamon tooth picks
Candy cigarettes [which were not a gateway drug - they were just tasty]
Root beer bottle caps
jawbreakers
