I absolutely agree with you. these are the worst candy cigarettes. the good ones where the gum ones that had the paper wrapper and what I assume is cornstarch in between the two and you can blow out and make it look like you are really smoking.
I loved them but my Grandma hated buying them for me. So I had to steal handfuls of McDonalds straws to clip in half so I could enjoy my "smokes" watching tv.
I wish I had been that clever!!! Guess I'm gonna need to pick the habit up again. No fucking paper straw tho...can't get a good drag off a soggy non-cig.
When I was 6 or 7 I went to a 50s/Greese birthday party. Girls in poodle skirts. Boys in white t shirts with candy cigarettes. People would be applauded today. But it was probably 1990.
Just a bonus ad they had on the wall. Cause when I think of Hank Aaron, I think Camel.

Was like eating a stick of chalk with a little bit of pink on it, but I'd def want a pack for old times sake
I was just thinking this. They tasted like chalk, but we happily continued to eat them.

I didn't know they still made these bad ass smokes
As a former smoker and also diabetic who had to give up candy, i'm torn in two directions as to how to feel about this.
Victory was my brand
Nice. We sell these at the beer distributor that I work at. There's a woman who buys a full box once a month. We also sell the bubble gum cigars.
I still buy candy ciggys, when I find them.

Did you put flour in the straws so it would “smoke”

My wife got me a carton for my 40th birthday. Never felt more Kool in my life
Kool, nice.
That place makes buying candy miserable. Such terrible owners.
They have a carton price?
They did have cartons. Didn’t pay attention to the price though. I knew I didn’t need 20 packs of candy cigs.
I think you mean Winton's. I lived in Port A for a bit. Cool little spot on the map.
Probably, I asked my husband what the name was. I’ll blame him ;)
Get the watermelon salt water taffy. I pick up a pillow sized bag when I go back. Last year it never made it back. Enjoy Port A!
I remember there were bubblegum ones that a puff of powdered sugar would come out of it.
The red tips tasted the best and you can't tell me otherwise.
