The "lipstick" inside was this pinky-red candy that had the neatest texture. It broke off with a soft snap. Anyone remember them? If I remember right, they were bought individually.

She doesn't look too hot anymore. She stayed fresh for about 10 years, but now the candy is black and gross-looking. I remember seeing other members of the barf family, but only have the mom.

All my coworkers think I'm crazy and my mom can't remember who made them. They usually came out around the holidays. They aren't the soft mints, they are more airy and not chalky. They were so good if anyone ever does find them email me please it's driving me nuts. candyland_81@yahoo.com I’m so glad to hear other people searching for that puff candy that game in mint, stawberry and lemon!!!

This is the closet that I have gotten. I remember buying the candy at Walgreen's. Please let me know if anyone finds it. My favorite was the strawberry. Even though it stuck to your teeth.

We bought them here in No. Louisiana at the old K & B drug stores. They always had them. They were sold in big bags and in medium size tins. I recall Peppermint, Spearmint or Wintergreen and maybe butterscotch or lemon. I have heard that they were made by the Elmer candy company in Louisiana but that company only makes seasonal holiday candies now. How could something so good not be produced? Two things I remember about them, was you had to keep the bag airtight or the balls would go stale, and secondly every time you burped you had the freshest breath around.

It came in a test tube and was a powdered candy. It was usually layered (ex black and blue) and were sometimes sour or fruity. It is not viper vials but looked simular.

They came in Mint strawberry and lemon. They were the size of a marshmallow and came in a bags or big tubs. They were NOT individally wrapped. When you bit into them kinda riminded me of syrofoam, but as it melted it was awesome. My mother said she though Brach's made them, but i am not so sure. All the brands like Red Brand and King Leo are not the same candy. Those are more pillow shaped...The puff mints i remember were more like balls. Let me know if anyone finds them.
