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

I remember the taste of Smith Brothers Cherry Cough Drops, like I just had one 5 minutes ago. It has been probably over 18 years since I have had one, but I can still taste it. I am 23 now and when I was just a little girl, my dad would buy them for himself whenever he was sick and I would always sneak some for myself, because they tasted so much like candy.

He would buy them at Sky Way Liquor Store, so every time we were near there, I would beg him to buy me a pack. I think we would even buy a couple packs at a time, just for emergencies. Anyways, my father would always buy candy for me, so after we could no longer find Smith Brothers Cough Drops, my next favorite became Ju Ju Bees. Even when I was in high school and I would go to my dad's house to visit, he would always have a box of Ju Ju Bees waiting for me. My dad passed away in February of 2002, so these candies help with the memories of him. ~ Jessica from Kentucky

Average Rating    Ms.   My Mom.... She always has a tickle in her throat and is always either sucking on a cough drop or reaching for one. I surprised her with a case of Smith Brothers Licorice Cough Drops delivered to her door step. She no longer gets out much but even if she did, she can't find this brand in the stores. It made her day....and continues to, day after day after day...Once she pops one into her mouth, she's immediately transported to her younger days.   Reviewed by:  Joanne Maynard from Helena, Montana. on 2/10/2011 mrs   smith bro.   Reviewed by:  pam poulin from minot maine. on 10/27/2010
