Candy that is a crime against humanity.

[emjay]

They still exist... they just dropped cigarettes from the title for obvious reasons... they're just called 'Candy Sticks' now, but still in a little box shaped like a cigarette pack. They're one of my favourite sweets, and thankfully, no different (that I can tell) in taste or texture from how they used to be. I bought some relatively recently online for old times sake... and there you can get them by the proverbial carton :

Wow, that's too funny. I had no idea those still existed.

You've got me tempted now... I think I'll order some tomorrow as a treat. There's nothing quite like receiving a box of say £20 worth of sweets through the post... which can last from days to months depending on how disciplined you are in eating and rationing them So probably about ten boxes of Candy Sticks, topped up with a couple of other favourites such as red liquorice, milk bottles, and I have to say, black liquorice (I never used to like it particularly, but now given a pack of Liquorice Allsorts, the plain black ones - Red Dwarf's Kryton saying 'those itty bitty black twisty ones that everybody hates'... well not me - would be the first ones I'd go for... rather than the bobbly ones or the sandwichy ones). And then on top of that, one bag of something random just to try something new. That should do the trick a nice little Easter present to myself
