Just a few of the old-fashioned classics to choose from include:
*Beemans Gum - This great old-time favorite, invented in the late 1800's, was known to be the lucky gum of pilots. It was originally marketed as an aid to digestion because it was made of pepsin powder and chicle.

*Cherry Mash - An American favorite since 1918, Cherry Mash features a soft, cherry-flavored center containing real maraschino cherries covered by a mixture of chopped roasted peanuts and chocolate.

*Sen Sen - The Breathtaking Refreshment. Created in the mid 1800's, Sen-Sen "Throat Ease and Breath Perfume" was the first commercial breath freshener in the U.S.A. Valuable to "singer and speakers," Sen-Sen's blend of licorice and rare herbs effectively mask odors from smoke, food, or drink.
*Zotz - The original sour candy…where the fizz izz. Available in cherry, apple, watermelon, grape, orange, or lemon.
*Fizzies - The fun, effervescent drink tablet made popular in the 50s & 60s has returned. Whether you're a genuine kid or simply a kid at heart, now you can enjoy the crisp, refreshing drink that everybody loves to make. A great source of vitamin C.
*Chick-O-Stick - What do you get when you combine Texas Grade-A Jumbo peanuts, granulated sugar, and lightly toasted coconut? Chick-O-Stick candy: a flaky, crunchy, chewy, peanutty treat. When this candy came out in the 1930s, these chewy stick candies were known as “chicken bones.” In 1954, the company found out another company already owned this name, so they settled with Chick-O-Stick.

*Bonomo’s Turkish Taffy - Invented in Coney Island in the 1940's by Victor Bonomo, Bonomo's Turkish Taffy is technically a kind of nougat. This Turkish Taffy is available in candy bar-sized pieces that you whack against a hard surface to break into bite-sized pieces.

*Licorice Pipe (Black) - This tasty, chewy 4 1/4 inch black licorice pipe is the perfect accessory for your Santa suit!
