POP rocks! until that stupid rumor about the kid dying from them
I used to like Fun Dip - that white candy stick that you dip into the different colored powders and lick it. I don't know if they still sell it...

YES! But back in *my* day it was called Lick-(something)

can't remember the full name

It was called a Lick-M-Aid! ha ha

the gum that had the liquid inside... I can't remember what it was called...

"Freshen Up"

also those candies you sucked on and when you got to the middle it fizzed....

nah, it wasn't that.... it was fruity flavoured (grape, etc...) gum with some sort of sugary gel-like liquid in the middle.... way bad for you....

I liked the Pixie Stix.

And the wax bottles. But then I just had a wax bottle a few weeks ago, and almost choked when the juice squirted into my mouth.

i wouldnt know what to call them, but late 80's early 90's i remember my dad taking me to the candy store and i would always pick these little things, looked like flying saucers(at least when we were kids we called them that) they had plain small hard candy pieces in the middle and the outside melted in your mouth kinda tasted like holy communion at church...lol....another one i miss....sixlets!

Filed DCF in Jordan from 7-05 to 3-06, Approved for I-R1.

Two Hearts, Two Different Places, Sharing One Dream

We were strangers~ Starting out on a journey~Never dreaming What we'd have to go through ~Now here we are ~ And I'm suddenly standing ~ At the beginning with you ~ No one told me I was going to find you ~ Unexpected ~ What you did to my heart ~ When I lost hope You were there to remind me ~ This is the start ~ Life is a road And I want to keep going ~ Love is a river I wanna keep flowing ~ Life is a road Now and forever ~ Wonderful journey ~ I'll be there When the world stops turning~ I'll be there When the storm is through ~ In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you~
