Such a funny memory! Candy pills and cigarettes! In retrospect, it does seem odd that parents didn't think twice about this.....We also had plenty of toy guns, too....

I remember them, but we thought they were just called dots.  I didn't think they were "pills".  But we did smoke candy cigarettes.  đź¤Ł

I still buy them and eat them. So does my husband!  Can't take the kid out of me!

@Bonkers1   Best use of those dots I ever saw---  a young woman I knew married a young widower who had a blind child.  She used those dots to create Braile messages.

I never was into candy like that or jelly beans and such.  Well, does Laffy Taffy count?????  Sugared almonds?  For me it was a candy bar or maybe a fire stick!
