All this seasonal candy advertising is activating my sweet tooth. I've got a hankering for a Chunky bar but can't find one locally. I did find them in bulk on Amazon. Seen any lately? I'd settle for a Seven UP bar but I can't find those either. :(

The only sweets I've ever liked were Tootsie Rolls and Moonpies. :D Oh, I have to have a R-uh-C Cola from West Jefferson, NC too!

One tootsie roll a year is all I can handle- it takes my jaw a year to rest up for another one. :eek:
 
Or a Charleston Chew...

I have frequently found Charleston Chews in the "movie theater" candy, sold by some grocery stores and Big Lots. Box full of the minis for a dollar. Haven't seen any of the full-size ones since they closed the Albertsons.

They got Winn Dixie in Texas? They should carry the little ones.
 
Just now I was gassing up and they had my old most favorite candy bar at the register, "Cup O Gold". I mentioned they were my favorite and thought they were off the market. The guy said he heard the same from a few others today. I bought three and am suppose to be dieting!
 
Kit Kat, Twix, and Almond Joy.

I don't need any of them...but I sure do like them. I just wonder why God didn't make lettuce taste like chocolate?
 
The dollar store in my neighborhood has charleston chews, chunky, cherry mash, and mallow cups, among others.
The name of the store is, literally, "The Dollar Store". I believe it is a national chain.
 
Mountain Bars and Big Hunks, from my days growing up in Oregon. John Wayne bars, from my C-rat days...

Here's one place Ron; Chunky Candy Bar - 24 / Box - Candy Favorites

and another; Chunky - Candy you ate as a kid®

and still another; Chunky Bars Candy by Nestle at Candy Direct! - CandyDirect - Candy Direct

finally; Chunky Bar - Old Time Candy Bar

There is a wide range of prices. One has both sizes of Chunky.

Here are several sources from Shopzilla. Best price I found; http://www.shopzilla.com/chocolate-sweets/nestle+chunky+candy/16030100/products

Best price; http://www.bwcliffordcandy.com/chunkysingles.aspx But there is a $20 minimum order before shipping.

If you have a CVS store near you, check the candy display in front of the cash register counter. The ones here in Raleigh, NC have Chunkys.

I found one of these in an MRE last week.

Can we say "Mr. Hanky?"
 
There is a candy store in Fredericksburg, Texas, that has a lot of the retro candies. It is downtown on Main Street, cannot recall the name. They had an old time taffy there that my wife just loved.
