I do remember those long flat strips tho.I used to go to a Woolworth's 5 and dime. They had a glass case on the front counter with all the penny candy and they had a great variety, for a little kid anyways. Everything was 1 cent. My Mom would give me dime and in I'd go, all agog at the choices. Jawbreakers were a fave along with cinnamon balls which always had a hot flavor. Jawbreakers were large and seemed to have many layers, all a different color and flavor. They would last a long time. Probably my favorite were these little fruit flavored discs wrapped in a plastic sleeve, maybe 20 individual discs similar to a lifesaver shape but much smaller. I would savor each one of those, where most kids would put them all into their mouth all at once!Cheers,RR</blockquote>
