A taste of my childhood. My father would regularly get these for his subway ride into the city. Similar to life savers, but nicer flavor in my opinion.

When I was younger (a good many years ago) I occasionally partook of Reed's candies. They were offered both in the form of candy rolls and candy suckers. There were different flavors, but all were made of barley sugar. The roll candies had a unique shape with a concave center. Perhaps it is failing memory, or a yearning for times past, but I remember the suckers and the candies were uniformly tasty, with a unique flavor. When I saw the advertisement for Reed's root beer candies, I jumped at the chance to obtain a taste from a bygone era. Sadly, I was disappointed. The only thing these candies have in common with those I had in my youth was the external package. To my mind, that faithfully represents the packages of rolled candy I would indulge in. Nothing else is the same. The candy is root beer flavored, but it lacks the distinct taste of barley sugar, and the candies themselves are not concave, but resemble the candies found in Regal Crown rolls--albeit of different flavor. I will hand out these candies to friends with the caveat noted above, consume some myself, and never again place an order for them.Read full review

When I was a little kid, my grandmother would come to the house and if she had peppermints, this is the one she brought. After noticing last year that the company was still in business I bought some and they still have the same great flavor.

A different take on a “mint” type wafer candy. This is a tropical tasting flavor sensation. Just a couple wafers are enough to enjoy this candy. Everyone from the millennials to their boomer parents enjoyed these!

Charms used to be a commonly available hard candy when I was growing up. I always liked it and am glad that it still exists and is available.
