I have written about candy from my
childhood before (click here to check that out). This time I am going
to write about some more. One of them I forgot existed for good
reasons because it tasted like Satan's pantyline. When I think of my
childhood and all the candy I consumed it is shocking that I'm not
300 pounds and the owner of all the diabetes. There are enough
candies that have been discontinued for whatever reasons. They
probably caused long since gone diseases or something. Who knows?
Either way I still want 'em back. Mostly.
Cherry Clan. Nothing like good ol'
fashioned racist candy, right? These were fucking delicious. Of
course they could never release something like this with that
packaging even if they changed it because of old assholes like me.
This was in the same family of candy as Lemon Heads, Johnny Apple
Treats, and Alexander The Grape. Yes, these were all candies that
once existed and you won't get to try unless you like in Bumfuck,
Tennessee or buy them off of eBay and I assure you they'll be covered
in dust and those diseases that no longer exist I mentioned.
Just
thinking off these is making my mouth water. I'm not sure what they
were coated in but your hand would be deep red which was kinda cool
because it was like having extra candy when you licked your hand
clean. We didn't wash our hands in the 80's which we all know is the
cause of AIDS. Its science. It didn't really taste like cherry so
much as, well, sugar. It was white on the inside just like the
candies I mentioned above and colored on the outside. Top ten no
longer around candies.
