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

I'm 47 years old and even when I was a young girl I would eat Mary Janes. My girlfriends and I would have sleepovers and make Mary Jane sandwiches. These wonderful concoctions were just a ton of Mary Janes between 2 pieces of bread, eaten like a peanut butter sandwich. To this day I still enjoy some Mary Janes from time to time and think back to those days. Nowadays when I take my children camping, we too make Mary Jane sandwiches. ~ Joanne from Illinois

Average Rating    Mary Jane   Great chewy candy. The wife is rationing them, but it's better than her eating all my Walnettos!!   Reviewed by:  K. Sheppard from KY. on 1/11/2012 Mary Janes   Another of my favorites from the '50s & '60s that doesn't quite measure up to the original. I remember Mary Jane as a little harder on the outside, and more of a peanut filling inside.   Reviewed by:  Richard Watters from Miami. on 11/18/2011 Mary Janes   I served them at my daughters 50's Sock Hop. I was told by the guests that they had never had a Mary Jane that was fresh. It brought a lot of good memories back to the guests at the party that were around durning the 50's.   Reviewed by:  Diane from Flushing, MI. on 11/8/2011 Good Old Mary Janes   Still a great candy.   Reviewed by:  L Williams from Indian Head, MD. on 10/11/2011 Mary Janes   When I received my Mary Janes. They were so fresh you can smell the molasses and peanut better, And very soft. I would recommend this item to everyone.   Reviewed by:  Joshua Blake from Mount Rainier MD. on 8/22/2011
