I haven't seen this one in stores for a long while! It was not that good and the flavour lasted for so little time but it's still kinda nostalgic!!

Very large, somewhat overpriced. Haven't had them in eons.

That time when a french manufacturer tried to make smoking cool for children! They were candy sticks filled with chocolate that looked like cigarettes! I remember bringing home a packet and my grandma had a melt down until she realized what they were, long story short they didn't stock them locally for very long when parents found out.

I may, or may not have tried to smoke them too at one point! >.>

I had something similar to those chocolate panda biscuits but it was a koala instead.
Shredded haw candy was my favorite but I can't find it locally anymore.

Haven't eaten sweets in ages, I have no self control, so I can't have them around me or I will absolutely stuff my gullet.

When I was thinking about nostalgic sweets, for some reason I remembered some candies you could only ever get at public swimming pools around here for whatever reason:

... Which brings me to a little question - why in hell were/are these things shaped like feet?

Sorry I don't know how to put img up on forums, but Old Fashion candy drops(lemon and wild cherry are my favorite) and the Brand Name Soda pop flavored gum. They tasted awful as soda and couldn't make a good bubble with them...

I remember them!

Oh they’re extremely common in Kuwait haha.

 

[DunkeyKong]

It's so damn nostalgic seeing most of these now, I remember some elders and kids that would eat it everywhere

Brings back memories of going to the corner shop next to my old house. Never been able to find it since.

Speaking of candies. I remember eating a lot of these like a decade ago

There's was also a Bundle with the rest of the candies like the "fried" potatoes.

This was actually quite addictive lol

I used to eat a lot of these at school when I was a child.

Nowadays I rarely see it in groceries.
