Halloween Candy 1970s / myLot

By the time the 1970s came around I was in my teenage years but still enjoyed Halloween and candy. At this time I no longer went trick or treating but like Halloween parties. That year among the popular candy came Laffy Taffy, those fun popping rocks Pop Rock, fizzy ZotZ, Blow Pops a lolly and bubble gum combination and Fun Dip. My two favorites were Pop Rocks and Blow Pops. What about you?

Laffy Taffy is my all-time favorite. I bought some today for Halloween and will save that bag of candy for last due to my wish for leftovers. Laffy Taffy can pull out fillings if one is not careful.

I never heard of Laffy Taffy. I was pretty a traditional Toostie Roll kid.
