Foods/Candies that No Longer Exist

Do they still sell Fizzies Drink Tablets, Anise Bears, Root Beer Barrels, Black Jack Taffy and Turkish Taffy?

Man all the talk about candy and soda pop..getting hungry!

That is so cute! I just showed this picture to Andy and he got a big smile on his face and said "Of course I did" when I asked if he had ever had one.

Oh yeah, the curly wurly is still a selection box favourite with kids at Christmas.

That just reminded me, when I was in school you could get wonka popping candy chocolate bars for a bit, then they disappeared and came back recently with 2 flavours - shortbread and creme brulee. Worst come back ever.

The awesome Brach's display-where you could fill up a bag fill of goodies for sensible price. Especially, sensible since Mom was buying the candy.

I should go to the Northern Store today before we leave Baker Lake to see what type of candies are available up here for the Inuit. They have a definite sweet tooth even though traditionally the only sugar they used to get came from berries they could pick on the tundra.

As it turns out it is a good thing we are delayed today as it gives me time to go get some more souvenirs from the local arts and craft place - the Jessie Oonark Centre (even if the prices are absolutely ridiculous as they are so high!)
