Anyone remember Big League Chew? It was bubblegum shredded up and in a pouch like chewing tobacco?

Oh yeah! I remember Big League Chew, loved that stuff!!! Why was shredded up gum so yummy?! I mean it really was! LOL I wonder if they still make it?

Other for me! Does any one remember the flying saucers made from 2 wafers and had little beads inside? We used to take them apart and play we were giving holy communion! I also liked the candy that looked like watermelon slices and had coconut in them.

Gosh, I LUV MeanLaureen!! I had forgotten all about all those goodies!! We did....we ate ANYTHING! I loved Babettes (is that what they are called?)! Those little taffy suckers. Banana, vanilla, chocolate, & strawberry. Then braces came along ~ jaw breakers were the only thing allowed for a couple of years (NO CHEWING). Thanks for the memories!!

My favorite is Satellite Wafers (aka Flying Saucers)

Or how about the flower wafers they used to put on cakes (used to go to the bakery just to get them)

Marathon bar!! They were my favorite. Also the wax bottles with the juice in them. This is bringing back memories!

I used to love buying the necklaces & bracelets & nibbling on them
