And candy companies back then tried all sorts of tactics to get people hooked to their products. Join us for today's video, as we look through 15 of the most amazing vintage candy types.

    Vintage candy was way better that modern candy who agrees?

      I do. I vividly remember having made
      a prank twenty years ago to my friends
      at the time, offering chocolate cigs.
      They were horrified, asked whether I
      did smoked but then realised it was
      just a prank.

    Wow, do a part two please. There are so many more. Like those little wax bottles with juice in them. Or pixie sticks?

    Bazooka bubble gum used to come in a rectangle, but it was scored down the center so you could break/tear it in half. I remember sending for a couple of those premiums on the comics...
    Used to know "Candy Buttons" as paper dots. They were never individually wrapped when I was a kid. Probably provided more fiber to kids by eating the paper stuck to the candy....
    I ate candy cigarettes all the time! Lol. He didn't mention the bubble gum cigars...
    Big Hunk, used to be *BIG*. I think that was it's big draw. (No pun intended.)
    Mallo cups were okay, but the chocolate on the bottom was often too thin, and the candy made a mess in the slightest of heat...
    Note Double Bubble (Fleer) and Bazooka (Topps) are both bubble gum/Sports Cards company...
    Don't know anyone who ate Lik-m-aid with their finger. Always just poured it into your mouth. It was a powdered sweet tart. (Or something similar.) Never came with a stick when I was a kid, but I do remember multiple "servings" per package.
    Necco chocolate wafers were the best. I think chocolate was the only one you could get in a roll by itself...
    It wasn't only lips that came in wax. I remember toungues and teeth as well. There were also those wax tubes filled with a sugary liquid.
    The only candy I didn't recognize was the Abba-Zaba, since it was a regional candy. That one wasn't available in the mid-west.
    Notably missing were all the licorice candies, charleston chews, bit-o-honey, Seven up chocolate bars, Mary Janes, Turkish Taffy...
    Yeah, I ate a lot of candy when I was a kid. But that was back when penny candies really cost a penny... 😁

    Twinkie's have to be on part 2.... They were a staple junk food back in the early 80's when I was growing up.... You could literally go nowhere without seeing them!!

    I used to work at a candy store that had so much retro candy, and had every single candy listed in this video. We had to close due to COVID. But it was so much fun to work there, got to try so much candy that I've never heard of, and haven't seen since I was like 4 or 5

    I miss giant Sweetarts. In 1968 could get a sweetart the size of a hockey puck. Took hours to chew thru. Pure bliss.
    While I can’t get it these days I am lucky that we have the Waukarusa Dime Store which carries a lot of retro candies. Not that I need it.

    I went to the Mallo Cups factory and was in heaven! I bought so much that, in the aftermath, I gained eight pounds! Best weight gain of my life tho. I'm moving back to the lower 48, near the factory. I'll be visiting again.

    The name "Bazooka" is a nickname. A bazooka is actually a woodwind, the design of which is similar to the weapon. So the weapon was lovingly given the nickname.
