What candy do you guys remember from the 80's ? Is it still around ?
I remember:
Pop Rocks ( see other thread)
Necco Wafers....remember these pastel sugar wafers with the un-identifiable flavors in the clear wax paper wrapper ? They're still around !
Lik-Em-Aid....3 envelope/packs of COLORED SUGAR with a hard sugar white dipping stick....that stick had the oddest flavor, didn't it ?
Pixie Sticks....yuuummm, more sugar
Bubbalicious & Hubba Bubba.....mmmmmm, sugar you can chew....

I remember the Whatchamacallit bar-that was really the name. I loved those, and I don't know whether they are still being made. In the 80s, I also remember the local candy shop selling a lot of British candy and my friends and I would buy it because it

KYYX4Ever, some of those candies you mentioned were around way before the 80s. even back to the 60s, maybe earlier, like Necco, Lil-em aid, pixie sticks.....
