Oh, I can't WAIT to chomp through a package of the Lemonade Blends! I love all things lemon, and the more tart, the better. Lemonade is my alltime favorite drink ever, and these sound fabulous. What a great review of the other M&I candies! I love the brutal honesty and since I never was a M&I fan to begin with, won't be trying the originals again, but the Tangy Twisters I'll be on the lookout for...thanks!

This is what they said: “Due to very low interest in this product, MIKE AND IKE(r) Cherry and Bubble Gum flavored candies were discontinued. Our sales and marketing team worked very hard to promote this product over the years; unfortunately, marketplace conditions ultimately forced this decision upon us.

(But, then again, I don't think CP's ever really claimed to taste like anything in particular.) OK, I guess your comments are pretty valid for original flavor M+I, but IMHO, I still prefer them to the other Mike-and-Ike-come-lately flavors. Heretic! :-p

The Lemonade blend was also pretty good, though not as much variation in the flavors, that makes it easy to just chomp them and not have to look. I too think that the Tangy Twister is their best mix.
