If You Ate These Things, Your Childhood Was Awesome

Back when we weren’t that interested in restaurants and cafe’s, we spent our afternoons stuffing our faces with candies and snacks that were not only mouth-watering and delicious for us (not to our parents though) but also was inexpensive and easily reachable. These candies and snacks will definitely bring back childhood memories to every Pakistani:

1. Top pops

The taste you could never get enough of and little surprises like seetiaan and lattoo inside to make our day!

2. Ding Dong Bubble

We still know the ding dong song and its story, it has been engraved on our hearts forever!

3. Jubilee

It was worth Rs. 5, and we thought a chocolate can’t get more luxurious than this, covered up in crackling gold wrapper.

4. Spacer Toffee

1 rupay ki 4! What more can a kid ask for?

5. Bubble Your Name

Trying to find your name and never really finding it because there were just a few names that always got repeated, but we still checked them excitedly every single time.

6. Mitchell’s

A few of us even broke our baby teeth, thanks to Mitchell’s

Nothing could fascinate you more than watching powder turn into a strange tasting bubble gum in your mouths

10. Cocomo

11. Ring candy

We felt so rich wearing a colorful diamond that we could eat too.

Tint sugary grains that turned into tiny explosions on your tongue were the best thing ever

14. Hubba bubba bubble

Most of you called it tape bubble.

15. These eye wear shaped bunties

No Mitchell's bon bons in that list

These are the new ones. I am talking about the old ones which when packed looked like nokia 7610s

Has anyone tried this Dracula bubblegum?
It turns your tongue as the same color as of the gum. Red colored one was the favourite color though

Once my friend was chewing one in class. The teacher randomly chose him and asked him questions regarding the lesson. Imagine having to answer the questions with a bloody red tongue
