I found some of those a couple of months ago. I hadn't seen them for about five years before that.


There's nothing quite like them, but "Mary Jane's" are pretty close. They do have a more "peanuty" flavor, though.

Bit on the salty side, but you can stick them on tips of your fingers and pretend you’re Freddy Krueger, so there's that.

A companion product to Bugles, also made by General Foods, and the exact same base product, just a different shape. Then made "pizza" flavored with a coating that included dried tomato, garlic, oregano, basil, etc.

Not that I buy them that often. I'm still carrying the ones I ate 40 years ago around on my hips.

They have candy corn and Peas and Carrots. Sometimes I can find themed Mellocremes around holidays, but other than candy corn, they are getting quite scarce.
