Had some occasionally.

Didn't care much for the taste of them. They tasted like compressed powdered sugar to me. Sweet, but no flavor at all.

I wasn't crazy about them but I ate my share. I greatly preferred M&M's. I proved that they CAN melt in your hand.

It was cool to carry to the pack in the shirt pocket, and dangle the white stick in the mouth. So we thought.

Barry,

You should have tried the menthol!

Coffee grounds, corn silk, were just two of the substitutes we tried in pipes.

I did too. Smoked cedar bark once...yuk. Best substitute was grapevines. Must have been setting me up, because I smoked for almost 25 years, before I wised up and quit.

I would smoke raspberry sticks/stems.

Amazingly there's a candy store in old town Fort Collins (Rocket Fizz) that still sells candy cigarettes. I have no idea where they get them or how they get away with it. It's a really cool store, all kinds of old candies.

I remember them. They had a little red tip too as if they were lit.

Not just candy, also school books and television shows.

Remember Br'er Rabbit and the Tar Baby? How about Jack Benny and Rochester?

I doubt that program is in syndication much.

Back in the fifties, there were some cartoons from WWII and that era that did a wonderful job of portraying reality. Showing them today would create a huge uproar.
