13 Candies That Only People Who Are 30 Or Older Will Remember

By Jane Kenney

7 years ago

7. Tiny Size Chiclets

Amazon

Chiclets, in general, used to be a super popular option for gum-chewing. These tiny-sized chiclets came in an assortment of fun colors. Do you remember putting five of them in your mouth at once? They were always a staple of my favorite vintage candies!

8. Hubba Bubba products

Target

From the Hubba Bubba tape to the Hubba Bubba powder, you weren’t a cool kid if you didn’t have one of these products. The brand was actually discontinued in the early 1990s but made a comeback in 2004.

9. Strawberry candies in holiday gift sets

Twitter

They were all wrapped up, so we had no idea if they were edible or not! Sources online say these are still available at local drugstores like CVS, RiteAid, and Walgreens.

10. Life Saver’s Holes

They have millions of different versions of Life Saver’s, but we know you remember these from the 1990s! They were soon discontinued and have not returned since.

11. Push-up pops

Pie Versus Cake

These frozen treats consisted of a popsicle that you simple ‘pushed’ out of the wrapping paper, hence why it’s called a push-up pop! The most memorable kind was the orange push-up pop.

12. Ribbon Candy

Ribbon Candy is a staple during the Christmas season, usually beginning around September each year. It’s one of our favorites and it takes us right back to grandma’s house and her candy dish!

It gains it’s ‘ribbon’ shape by being fashioned as warm sugar into flat strips. A strip is then folded back and forth over itself to form the hardened ribboned figure. The sugar is most frequently colored to look more festive! Yum!

13. Banana-flavored runts

eBay

We know you remember putting your quarters in the slot to get one of these runts to fall out of the machine and into the palm of your hand. They were still a fan-favorite, even though they didn’t even really taste like bananas!
