So, here is a great present idea, perfect for Christmas:

http://www.nostalgiccandy.com/

I'm thinking about getting one of the 50's decade boxes for my inlaws.

Wait.... hold on....

They don't make Sugar Babies, Tootsie Rolls, or Sweet Tarts anymore?!

Or is this just a basket full of candy that's still in production but have been around a long time?

Edit: I know what I am passing out for halloween next year. CANDIED CIGARETTES! Oh yeah, baby. I'm bringing back the political uncorrectness!

They really shouldn't if they still do. Nasty little things.

Sadface. Tootsie rolls are cool. Not the greatest candy in the world, but imminently edible.

I think the packaging matches the out of production period-appropriate designs, too, and that's the point.
