PB77

SpeedyHamster
We've got a whole table covered in grandma candy at my work.
TwatBurgah
What the f?ck are those!! Seriously I love them but what's the name
gypsyg
When I was young, we would get mugs filled with those. One year, I ate all of them out of my brother's mug. 1/2
gypsyg
2/2 And that's how I discovered I was allergic to strawberries. My hands swelled and got itchy. I haven't touched strawberries since
comacomacomacomachameleon
There's a lady in my office that keeps a bowl of them on her desk. I have snuck one... or a few...
SecretAgentSuperBooger
For those curious where these came from, it's Hickory Farms and they still come in some of their sausage and cheese Christmas gift boxes.
hollybadass
People at work say I have old lady candy in my bowl but they are the best!
AllThingsNeat
Add to a bowl of cough drops and werthers.
TheMcFlurryMaster
My mom isn't a grandmother yet but she gives those out to her co workers
CidColetti
You went into my moms purse! She's been dead for years though I doubt those are any good.
LPlane2
I can actually taste the strawberry filling...not in a strange way

Bless your soul kind sir
SecretAgentSuperBooger
They still come in some Hickory Farms sausage and cheese Christmas gift boxes, if you want to add some nostalgia to the season this year.
SteelmonkeyPDX
Hickory Farms strawberry candy! Odd little sausage and cheese company that peppered malls across America in the 70s and 80s
thegrimcoder
It is said that no one really knows where they come from, bowls of these just happen to appear on grandma's sewing table's across the land.

Legend has it if you dig deep enough you'll find keys to a scirocco.
TheUtahn
Anyone ever hear of Monster Chews? That's what my grandma gave us and they've disappeared like a fart in the wind.
madelAwwBeast
I saw some at Target, in the bags on hooks, candy aisle.

I choked on one of those. I was barely able to cough and after the 3rd cough it went flying out like 15 feet
Notyourhomie
That's why you chew THEN suck!
skittlesFan
These are grandpa candy
badtzmaruxo
These are my favorites!
Nabashin
My nan would always have lemon sherbert lollies.
ocelot77
We haven't reached the level where those are unlocked at vendors.

Had a couple the other night. Got like mouth sores from them though. Like they cut up my gums or something.
CpaoV
yeah, that'd what happens when we.. old people.. try to have Childhood treats... just bot the same
SlicedBr3ad
Totally worth it
AbominableCarpet
Oh wow those are great.
EvilKam
I fucking love those things.
silverduke
My favorite part is how it smells like medicine and always ends up with a piece of wrapper stuck to the incredibly sticky surface after open
silverduke
I tried to avoid writing two comments
MisterGiffen
Perfect blend of chewy and crunchy.
GDSTEVE
Grandmas?
Rinsl0r
I found a place to buy like...3 pound bags, can't remember the name of the place though.
Yourfavoritebandsucks1974
Sam's Club?
Rinsl0r
I don't remember the name of the place, but it was a whole-sale kind of thing that sold huge amounts of candy.
RandomMcGamer
Yeah they're pretty great.

I'm already committing Sudoku as we speak.
StonesOnTheHill
The bastards waited until four steps into checkout to tell me they won't ship it to me. My balls are blue and aching for the grandma candy.

not all heroes wear capes.
Lefthandturnsignal
So delicious
sharkbirdbitecaw
Me too. Dad always got these meat boxes from fellow workers at christmas and they always had them in there and I would claim them as mine
JoshuaCM0408
To this day, I've never seen those sold in stores. I think it's some sort of magic that made them appear in grandma's candy bowl.
hewillnvrnoticeme
Dollar tree always has them lol
Strongharbour432
I've seen them sparingly at stores
PunnyPride
I have some on a side table in my living room, those things are the shit, look everywhere and you'll find them eventually.
RandomMcGamer
A gift was truly bestowed upon us.
JoshuaCM0408
Yes it was.
MeatSquatthrust
I've seen them at dollar stores! Like dollar tree and family dollar, older people on fixed incomes have to shop there

I don't care were they come from I just want them!
JoshuaCM0408
Operative words were "in stores", but thanks for the link. I may buy some of these for nostalgia reasons, as my grandparents are all gone.
ExtremeAndViolentButtFun
I know, but I figured I'd link that anyway just in case you didn't know. I've seen them in stores myself actually.

"we don't know when or if this item will be back in stock"
ExtremeAndViolentButtFun
To be fair, I didn't even look at that. Sorry. At least you know the name I guess?
TheOnlyPtylerdactyl
It's cool, it was more of a "consarn the luck" than a "you lied to me internet".
Iamfergy
Walmart has them by the bag
MayaTheSiren
I have a bag sitting in my drawer from the dollar store, that's the only place I've seen them.
marylanddd
plus you got the senior discount on it!
tipitiwitchet
Martin's Grocery on the east coast has them in the bulk grocery section :)
SecretAgentSuperBooger
They come in Hickory Farms sausage and cheese Christmas gift boxes.
lMadmanl
You had to spoile the fun, didn't ya?
DroneMonkey7
That is still the most grandma way to get them.
Evergrey
I used to get those for my grandma when I was a little kid... and then ask her to share. Little kids can suck, heh.
Niddhoger
Commissary on base here in town sells them. "Brachs" makes them (in one of their stands). They are imaginatively called "Strawberry Candy"

Wal-Mart sells them in bags
IHaveGreatKittenRecipes
Winco has them on occasion out west. Usually find them mixed into other bulk candies.
Cuntard

periwinklepanda
I saw some one year around Halloween! I was so excited.
zakisbak
They sell strawberry ones, orange, pineapple, n another flavor I forget at this Lebanese market by my house. Also chocolate mushrooms
