Do you have a favorite "candy you ate as a kid" story? Share it here.

When I was young it was a big fad to eat "Buns". My friends and I went crazy over these goodies. Every day my friends and I would take our allowance money and buy a huge bagful at the corner store. We would then play trivia games and the winner could trade for his or her favorite flavor. I would try my hardest to win the game so I could get all the caramel "Buns". By the time we had gone home we were so stuffed with "Buns" that we could not eat our dinner. We at least did this twice a week. You would think I would be tired of this candy after all we ate as kids, but I'm still out today hunting down "My Buns"! ~ Debby from New York

Average Rating    Dad's Favorite   A couple of weeks ago I was on the phone with my folks and was told that my Dad was having a root canal performed the following day, so of course, I immediately got on-line with Old Time Candy and ordered up his favorite box of Carmel Buns. Kind of evil, but he does things like this to us kids all the time. The box arrived a couple days after his procedure. He and my Mom love them, toothache or not.   Reviewed by:  Mark Bowling from Las Vegas. on 1/25/2012 Reggie! Reggie!   Well they weren't quite as good as I remember them as a kid when they were branded as the "Reggie Bar". But I did find that after I got over that disappointment, they are actually still pretty good. I realized this when I ate 3 or 4 of them in one day and said "well, I guess they're actually pretty good"   Reviewed by:  Patrick from CT. on 8/4/2011
