Best ones.
PenguinNamedWobbles
In CA they don't sell rolls of hard cand lifesavers anymore. I miss them, even though I broke a tooth as a kid eating them like ice.

SaladinIskander
They kinda remind me of polo mints, shape wise anyway.
PrinceOfWhales
Ah yes, the days of yore. When men were men, and women still had rights.
Onlyhereforthelaughs
Who remembers Peanut M&Ms?
Streborel
Thanks for this. Lost my 31 yr old daughter 7 years ago. This is her favorite candy in the world.

Is it me, or did they change the recipe or something? I remember them, as a kid, being smooth and light colored, but now they're rough and
dark brown and the flavor is different, or so I thought. Am I crazy?
SteerpikeSteerpike
I remember the "books" of lifesavers we got for xmas. Good memories.
LawFiveGuy
I like it when they come in book form at christmas
MarvinSuggsMuppaphone
Last books I saw had just the assorted rolls instead of one of those, one butter rum, one grape etc.
vlaurelrose101
Swallowed one once. Of course it got stuck but I could still breathe. True story
TheRicM
Maybe that's why they put the hole
wineisfine13
It actually IS. Ex was a paramedic and knows all the stories from the way-back. Kids used to die from candies.
Probably
TicoMachi
Would only get those at Christmas because they came in the lifesaver book.

Me too. I have childhood memories of digging through my mom's purse to find these

I remember thinking I wasn't allowed to eat them because I thought they were alcoholic, and I was five.

I thought Hush Puppy shoes were made from the ears of dog pictured in their ads.
RedWingedBlackbirds
Thought the same about root beer

I ate 'em anyways & thought I was badass.

My parents drank rum and cokes on weekends, so that's what I thought RC cola was.
That actually makes sense
glovelyday
Just the opposite: 5 year old me thought uncle's scotch on the rocks was a glass of liquid butterscotch. Wrong.
MrHowe
I miss those Christmas variety packs have never found those for my sons stocking
ConfettiPanda
I think they stopped making them. Or at least I can’t find them in my area.
therandombagofmeat
My grandfather would chew Red Horse chewing tobacco and eat Butter Rum Lifesavers at the same time. Butter rum reminds me of him
That's probably the exact flavor of mcrib sauce
ThailandExpress
Anybody remember these?
Aefinn
I mean, I know you are joking but at least snickers are sold world wide. I've never even heard of life-savers.

I got one last Christmas? I’m 68.
Acdkatie
I still get these from my parents if they are giving me a gift card lol.
Once or twice my parents were able to snag an only Butter Rum book for me. Good times.
decarnatedame
I used to buy those for my Grandpa every year for Christmas.
raffyson
Did we have the same Aunt??
BishopHastur
The book has gotten bad over the years. Got one last year, and it was just depressing.
What did it have? Last one I recalled had four rolls, three normal and one butter rum
It was 4-6 rolls total, and they were all the regular rolls I think, but my memory isn't what it used to be.
4 regular roll, half the box empty with cardboard covering the hole. Just nothing.

This year tell her what flavors you hope you get this time.

All these kids with the pumped up kicks butter rum, butter rum faster than my bullets
charondaboatman
Golly there, whippersnapper! I still have a roll of them sitting in my horseless carriage! Got ‘em just the other day at the general store!

A while ago I got a pack of the Wint-O-Green ones to show my boys that they spark when you bite 'em.

we did that at slumber parties, called it 'sparking'

Yawp! These were my favorite! Thanks for the memories!

Remembers? They still exist. We sell them where I work

This is why space and time coordinates are important when time traveling. You don't want to fuck it up and end up in middle of space.

God I would love to know what he was thinking at that moment. Maybe something mundane like, "Do I want Chinese food tonight...?"

You could make a killing mailing them to Imgur users. (I’d be in for a few packs)
bfmama
They still exist on my desk, because I love them. :-)
Yes, but do they still make them?
DaskIpsa
Take that you burnt, shit, gay face!
I didn't know they still existed. Thank you.
080080
how so these compare to werthers?
kellyxx
They not even close in flavor. Both good tho.
Weathers is butterscotch. The Life Savers is butter rum. Similar yet different. The butter rum tastes more complex, I guess?
laughoutloud74
I bought my husband butter rum because the store was out of Worthers. He recently quit smoking. He hates them, but he hate change.
It’s great that he’s quitting smoking. Does he like mints? Maybe that would be better.
Not so much. It's Jolly Ranchers & Worthers. He has gained a bit of weight, but it's been close to a yr. 6mos was longest in the past.

Plot twist: BastardMan1977 works in the past
ACAB247
He’s a ghost still working the same job, he just doesn’t know he is dead
ywmqm
God damn, imagine being dead and still going to work anyway.
Hairarse
He applied and was approved to have his funeral off but he had to work to lunchtime the same day
brandsilven
He's working way back in the year 2009, when the minimum wage was only $7.25 an hour!

I've seen these are Woodman's which is a local insanely large grocery.
RadiDaddy
I needed milk & stopped in a Woodman’s. It was waaaaay at the back. They should have Razor scooters available for quick trips like this.
Destination item - its back there so you see all they have to offer on the way to get what you needed anyways.
Oh, I get it, but the joke’s on them cuz I’ve never gone back.
Used to be grocery store where they had like a little convenient store set up at the front: milk, bread, eggs. So convenient to just run in
My usual store at the time had a cooler with such things right by the checkouts.
HapilyDamaged
Who remembers these things you can find in a store?!
3dartwork
I would say "some" stores. These are not very common. In some parts of America it's extremely rare to find these
thricebakedxyz
Yeah, what they said/asked, who!?
KawaiiInari
Seriously. Like I just -love- posts that say "Who remembers these?" And it's a fucking cast iron skillet or clothes pins. ?

“They’re done”. They sure are. You put them in the fucking dishwasher.

Eh, just re-season and it's fine.
But why would you make so much more work for yourself?
amskray68
They usually come individually wrapped in a big bag now.
irmonkey
I think you're just shopping in different stores now. Like ones that carry bags of hard candies.
They wrap them each in big bags? Seems like a waste of packaging
iLikeRainyDays
What if you just want 1?
Use smaller bags. No need to wrap each of them in big bags
