Retro Candy Memories - Pixy Stix
"I can always go back in time and remember beautiful spring days filled with sunny skies and cool breezes and me and my childhood friends laid back in the lush green grass, lookin' at the clouds while tipping back a sweet Pixie Stix. Just the sensation of that sweet, tart candy coating your tongue makes me want to go lie in the grass and relive golden days." - Leslie C., Martinsville, VA
"The road trip. We never really got to have much candy while I was growing up. It was something of a special occasion. However, whenever we were on a road trip and stopped at a gas station we could get something. We always got Pixy Stix because they'd last the longest, which was always a good thing since we were always hungry and bored. We got to choose from things we never got to see anywhere else. There was candy in the gas station that the supermarket didn't carry. I travel for work and every time I stopped in a gas station or airport to go and look at the candy to see all the treats I used to eat and some new ones." - Eric W., Little Falls, MN
"I remember there use to be candy ladies out of their house where you could go to as a child and buy candy for only a penny. You'd get a lot of candy with one dollar, like Pixy Stix, Malt Balls, Red Hot Dollars, and Chick O Sticks. Now a dollar will get you a candy bar or a soda that we could get for fifty cents but better yet sodas are more like almost two dollars now: but those were the days....in my Edith Bunker voice." - Tanisa T., Clarkston, GA
Robbie R. of Charlotte, reminisces: "When I think of candy memories it takes me back to swim lessons at the YMCA. They had a candy counter in the front and bb bats and those footlong 3 inch wide sticks of stripped taffy were our favorites. Also the big pixy sticks. My sister and I looked forward to that each week."
