I was in the supermarket and saw candy buttons - just had to have them. What are your favorite old time candies?

Remember those waxy kind of lolipops that were red yellow and green and shaped in an upside down cone? I can't remember what they're called!

ASTRO POPS!! They used to be cones with the point on the top. Now the point is on the bottom. I would imagine it is a safety feature because you could suck one of those pops to a point and stab the roof of your mouth.

I loved Astro Pops! As soon as I saw this post, I thought about them immediately! I also loved the candy cigarettes and the wax bottles with juice!
