Crystal Geyser Juice Squeeze raspberry tastes more like Nik-L-Nips used go taste. They don’t taste the same as when I was a kid.

The trick to eating? Gently bite the bottle top off and instead of squeezing...just suck! No mess! My favorite part was after I sucked all the juice out, I would chew on that wax for hours! Those were the good old days. Anyone remember candy cigarrettes & ring pops? Or PushUp Pops ( the hard candy, not the ice cream) mmmmmmm Nik-L-Nips were my favorite. The trick to eating?

Your piece earlier on Rolos...truth be told...I never ate them...my interest was that the never fit right on the candy counter (too round)...just like Charleston Chews (too long) and Chunky's (too stubby)...maybe that's why I don't see them on the shelf because they been put in the corner somewhere for a better fit...that may also be why the Hersey bar or Nestle's Crunch bar are so popular because there a standard fit and get front row seats on the counter!

I got so off-topic with my veggie party memory that I forgot to say that I STILL love Nik'L'Nips and yeah, they make me feel like a kid, too (but then again, pretty much everything does)! P.S.

Try attending a birthday party thrown by the only back-to-Mother-Nature hippie family (OK, this was the 60's) in the neighborhood! Try getting no ice cream, no pizza nor a single piece of - gasp! - candy. Try getting carrot sticks with some funky dip stuff and popcorn balls made with honey and (I found out years later) Brewer's yeast! Now people, as a kid, THAT was getting cheated! Though the consummate and true candy addict, I'd probably like those honey-Brewer's yeast popcorn thingies now... You felt cheated with bubble gum?

I couldn't get enough of pixie sticks. I did always feel a little cheated when I was stuck with a handful of double bubbles though. ah…the fond memories of goodie bags. while I was not a huge fan of Nik’L’Nip’s – I did love that flavored gum that came in mini juice cartons.
