I have to say my faves were:

Rain-Blo
Big League Chew
Gold Rush (in the little cloth bag)
Wacky Pack gum (complete with white powder residue, lol)
Gator Gum (orange flavour)
Candy:
Bonkers Candy
Fun Dip
Belly Buttons
Those multi-coloured sprinkled chocolate dots the size of a nickel.

Gum:
Dubble Bubble. It was what I chewed most often since the aftercare center I went to would hold bubble blowing contests and that's what they used. I always won, even the time I chipped a tooth chewing too fast and got bits of my tooth in the gum.
And basically any other gum that wasn't mint or licorice. I was an avid gum chewer, much to my mother's displeasure since she would have to clean the popped bubble off my glasses.
Candy:
Gummi worms. Can't beat a classic.0 -

Yeah and the flavor would last maybe 5 minutes til it became a hard shrivled up piece of glopp in your mouth. Loved it!0 -

all we could get at the time in communist poland in terms of american candy was Nerds and Donald Duck gum...at least its all i can remember
but polish-made candies were so much better
Ptasie Mleczko are awesome.
I'm not really sure what candies are from what time frame, but chick-o-sticks and the big chewy sweet tarts were my favorites. Also everlasting gobstoppers!
I always got those when we'd go swimming in the summer. 0 -
-Warheads, especially the black cherry ones
-Nestle Wonderballs (when they were still allowed to put little toys in them)
-White "mystery flavor" air heads
-Banana Laffy Taffy
Man, I wonder if they still make those candies... if so, ima get me some :P0 -

I love Banana Laffy Taffy! And yes they still make them! I'm not sure about the white air heads, or the warheads actually, but mostly you can go to the Dollar Tree and all the nostalgic candies are just waiting for you (They even have those old drinks where they were a soft plastic bottle and you twisted off the top to drink it). I can't imagine warheads are gone...0 -
It was Swedish Fish which I have hunted down its 99cents (any family dollar store), but does anyone remember the Apple Slice soda? If you do and know where I can get it inbox me, I have searched for it for over 15 years, thanks0

Pop rocks....big league chew...bubble tape tasted horrible but was amusing.... I loved and still love the old fashioned stuff like licorice and jelly beans.
Probably helped to contribute to my figure...0 -
Candy cigarettes. Thought they were the coolest.
I know, right!! And they had the cool little red tip. LOL, how times have changed.0 -
Baby bottle pops!0

now and laters. i gave myself cavities because i would intentionally fall asleep with them in my mouth :laugh:
to make it worse, i'd even use my tongue to spread them out over my teeth.
since i wasnt officially allowed candy, you can imagine how pissed my mom was when she found out i had cavities and how i got them :laugh:0 -
