Anyone, anyone????? They came in a small celophane bagy and you could eat them or shoot your best buddy. It was the beginning of my demise as a BB Shot war was indeed started in my 5th grade class in 1980. We purchased them at a candy store in Lombard, Illinois called Keelers. Cant find those on the web....same with purple sweedish fish and the Choco-lite bar. How about these red white and blue small round candys that came with a short straw called BB Shots?????

They say: "Sweet's Hot Shots are a cinnamon flavored jelly bean." but I am positive the candy I am thinking of was NOT a jellybean type candy.

Yes, I can be a bit obsessive. I tried finding these Cinnamon BBs mentioned, but all I could find were BB Bats? I tried to Google everything from cinnamon candy to fuzzy roll! I give up, but below is a link to what appears to be every red candy on the planet! http://www.candywarehouse.com/redcandy.html?page=all I must see a picture of this fuzzy candy tube!! :) Heather I read this blog this morning, and after nearly 10 hours writing, I still came back to it and tried to track down the candy.

Kaylie beat me to it. I am almost positive these were called Cinnamon BBs, as her husband remembers. So now, off to search the internet for proof! :P Hello! Kaylie beat me to it.

My brother and I got a friend to put them in his gun when we were kids. The candies weren't the right size and as I remember the kid's dad got really upset that the kid had filled his new BB-gun with candy.
