It’s sour candy time! π

They sell these movie-theater boxes at Dollar Tree for $1 baby.

My first impression is that the colors weren’t great. There were a ton of greens, and also some discoloration. I guess that’s why they ended up at DT?

Tasted a few, which were a bit sour but… they tasted like medicine! Yuck! π€’ So many flashbacks of being forced to take flavored children’s medicine as a kid. Yikes.
All in all, did not like π I guess they can’t all be winners!
μλ ! Bye! Ciao!

Oooh. Candy should never taste like medicine. Candy is what we need to make the medicine go down. (Though I think Mary Poppins said sugar helps the medicine go down. Plenty of sugar in candy!)

Jarlissima, I guess all “blasts from the past” are not as we remember them! Dollar Tree was one of my favorite stores when I was teaching elementary school. I didn’t often buy food, but they had lots of items for class activities. Thank you for this interesting post! Take care. Cheryl

Oh, yes, I can see how Dollar Tree would be great for class. They often have good materials for arts & crafts, journaling, and sometimes they have brand-name makeup that ends up there somehow. Woo hoo!
Thanks so much for reading, Cheryl! Have a good one π

Sour candies – maybe except the ones you got – are the best. I remember loving tear jerker gum balls growing up.

When I was growing up my mom worked at the dentistβs office. When I saw your post the first thing I thought of was what she always said about that kind of candy: βThose will pull out your fillings!β π

Girl, you need to get some Sour Patch Kids or sour Gummy Worms.
Sour Patch Kis will lock your jaw but they don’t taste like medicine!

Plus, they have a little sugar on Sour Patch Kids, although it doesn’t help that much.
