Things are going really well right now, and life is, as I mentioned previously, 99.99% perfect.

Whatever the cause, my depression has been pretty much on hiatus for many weeks now, and the past two or three weeks have been especially good. I’ve been able to motivate myself to do some things I would previously have put off or avoided – trivial stuff, mostly, which made it easy to delay.

My great-grandfather created the Whiz bar when he worked for Beich Candy Company (for 28 years). My father just ran across the original recipe in an old notebook. The problem is the recipe makes a 1900 lb. batch of candy! We did find the original test recipe in a smaller quantity which we will be trying out at home.

My Mother’s Cousin Jerry, who is 97 years old, told me earlier today that his Grandpa (who died in 1927) would always give him a Tango Bar whenever he visited. He remembered that it was chocolate with marshmallow & nuts. Does anything like it still exist?

So is the Whiz the closest thing to the Tango Bar? Trying to find one for my mom.

The Tango was my favorite candy bar as a kid in the late 40′s and early 50′s. I still think about it and remember how good it tasted.. My other favorite treat during that time was Kay-O, a milky chocolate cold drink.

I also was a big fan of the whiz bar as a kid and the last time I remember having one was in the very late 1960′s. I was especially happy when they also offered it in dark chocolate. mmm-mmm . They were so good. I wish they would bring it back. I know it would be a big hit. thanks, Bonnie.

I used to love the Whiz Bar! I remember my dad bringing home to me by the case full! That was in the late 60′s / early 70′s. What an awesome candy bar. Wish I could still find them.

The Whiz Candy Bar was the best candy bar they ever made in the USA. They need to start makeing them again. Evey time we went to a gas station when I was a kid I went to the candy bar machine and bought eveyone they had. Me love Whiz bars. In 1957 I was 10 years old. They are kinda like a shmore with peanuts, but the chocolate was better.

Thanks Slick
Have a great day
