When I was a kid they used to have lots of different flavors to buy. The classic five flavor is what I remember most. I still keep a jar full of the Wint-O-Green at work.

@saragoodtimes Stay away from those foamy chicks. 🤭 Well you are in the chocolate state. ;)
@Degbeme peeps are hard to resist they're everywhere at Easter
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@saragoodtimes Too sweet for me. 😖 They are fun to blow up in the microwave. ;)

My grandma's candy jar had lifesavers and assorted hard candy, I explained to her it wasn't "real candy"
@FreeSpirit1 That is great!
The Wint-o-green life savers. They make sparks when you chew them.

@fernie2 I used to go in th bathroom turn off the lights and look in the mirror to see the sparks.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
Winter green is my favorite
@MarineBob Mine too...Go in a closet or dark room...a mirror would be good...chew one and see the green sparks.. unless they've changed

I actually keep a bag in my purse. It wakes me up and hides bad breath after I have coffee when out.
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
@Keepitsimple Yes, definitely helps with that dreaded coffee breath!
@OverTheHill This is why I don't mind wearing a mask

Every Christmas we got one of the big packs with multiple flavors. We traded them to get our favorites.

Yes I used to buy them. those little gift boxes of them with 10 flavors was a favorite. I’m more into carrying a tin of peppermint Altoids now because they will help open my throat if asthma starts up.
@OverTheHill I'm not crazy about the Altoids themselves but I love the tin box they come in.
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
@fernie2 I use the metal box for toll change in my van.
@OverTheHill So many uses!

Yes, I don’t live under a rock

I’ll have them on occasion. But certs are the ones I really remember from childhood. Grandma kept them in her purse. I haven’t seen them in years though.
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
@JustEd Certs, I forgot about them! I haven't seen those in years!
@OverTheHill Do they still sell Mentos? Those thing were weird
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
@fernie2 Yes, they have mentos near me.
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
Yes. I used to like them when I was young.. I thought I had tried them all. But I see flavours in your picture I have never seen before.
DrWatson · 70-79, M
It's been ages since I had a desire for one, but as a kid I did have them pretty often.
Lifesavers are okay but I like Reeds better, especially the cinnamon ones.
yes my dad always bought me the 5 flavor variety
Bonnie · 41-45, F
I havent had them for years.

Dissolved in Zima.... Yeah.

@Trippin lol

Never heard of them
I remember the Lifesaver books I got at Christmas each year. My sister was hooked on "Winter Green" (or something like that) I never see them anymore. Are they still around?
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
@Grateful4you Yes. They sell them in small or large bags, and not as many flavors.
@OverTheHill Glad you posted this. I've been wondering about this for awhile. I might send my sister those mint one's I know she would get a kick out of that.

They’re barely around anymore which is a real shame because it’s a great candy
OverTheHill · 56-60, M
[@TARetu Yes I agree.
