I thought about adding Candy cigs, but really those things tasted like chalk! ;)

They still make Gatorade Gum, it's just under the Mueller Quench Gum label.

Same taste and everything. I buy it by the bucket. No lie.

Where's the "they all sucked" option?

Seriously. There's a reason these were all discontinued. (Sorry Frank!:P )

Wax mustaches.

Nothing like eating candy after sticking part of it in your nose. :D

The little wax soda bottles were cool. You could bite off the top of them and get about 1/10 oz. of "soda" out of them.

I remember the Marathon bar now - it was the best of those listed.

Yes. Wasn't it braided?

Yes it was braided caramel and chocolate pleasure! I was surprised when they quit making that one. It was very good. Maybe it was too hard on dental work or something.

What DOES the 'PB' in PB Max stand for?

Portly Ballerina?
Pig Basketball?

I can't remember any more of the commercial

MARS bar should have been a choice.

Remember Fizzies? Put one in a glass of water and watch it fizz then drink it or put one in your mouth and act/look like a rabid dog. Those were the days. What about pop rocks?

Do they still make Chic-O-Stix? Pure goodness at the public swimming pool.

PB Maxx was some good stuff.

I liked bubblicious "wacky fruit" gum too.

Best candy bar ever made.

You got to love candy packaging with a kid's head morphing into a mushroom cloud.

Clearly, you good people are having an uncharacteristic brain fart. The greatest discontinued candy of all time is Pillsbury SPACE FOOD STICKS.

You young'uns just don't know Snack Greatness.

I'm pretty sure the reason they quit making the Marathon Bar was all of the frivilous TMJ Lawsuits...

That stuff made my jaws hurt....

Mars Bars are still made, I saw some the other day. Here is the page from M&M-Mars: Mars Bar (http://www.mars.com/global/Global+Brands/Snackfood/Mars.htm)

Kind of a cookie/candy that I miss is the Nabisco HeyDay bars.
