I love that wax candy lips that came out in the fall of the year.
I can remember when "whatchcamacallits" came out..

(though I can't seem to spell it!) I can say I was in elementary...but they were good!
Oh, and I love Big Hunks. I was on my way to a funeral a few weeks back, we stopped at a little general store, and low and behold...there they were!

Anybody remember marathon bars? It was a braided carmel bar dipped in chocolate. They had a red packaging. I loved them..then they were gone.

I went and checked it out and found one of my oldtime faves Black Jack Taffy! I saw the cigar bubblegum too! Brought back fond memories. I remember the giant sweet tarts in high school and remember when you used to pick all the peanuts off a payday? All this talk of candy wants me to go go out and buy some!

Does anyone remember the gum that looked like gold nuggets that came in a little bag. How about Zots, they would foam in your mouth and make you look like a crazy person. Jaw Breakers and Chicklets gum

clove gum yes, but not berry shuffle. There was another gum I think called Pepsin or something close to that. It was supposed to aid digestion. Nice flavor! It was in a white package with red or blue lettering.
