'Sen-Sen' breath fresheners.

Very teeny tiny black squares of licorice flavor.

In small,  paper square packaging.

My mom's purses always smelled like Sen-Sens !

My dad used to carry Sen-Sen, @ROMARY .  Before the paper "envelope", they came in packaging similar to an old slider style matchbox.  When one would slide the interior portion, it exposed a little hole and the user would tap the box until the little piece of Sen-Sen came out.

@Seminole2  I LOVE Zots!!!  Whenever I see them, I always buy quite a few.  I've been lucky to find them in some specialty gift and/or candy shops but I haven't seen them in a few years anywhere.

What i remember most is my mom's peanut butter fudge.  She never used a thermometer, we kids lined up to test taste those little drops in the cup of water.

My baby brother use to love peanut butter logs.

Forever Yours - They were dark chocolate covered Milky Ways.  I've always been a dark chocolate lover.  Not a fan of milk chocolate; seems to have no taste.
