Last week I was reminiscing with a friend about this drink from our childhood (in Victoria); the colour and shape of the can being imprinted on my memory as something special, though like you I can't remember the taste. I also seem to remember there was another flavour (cola maybe?) made by the same maker and in the same shaped can, yet not as memorable to me as a child because the can was plainer. It is now my lifes mission to track down and own one of those old Candy cans!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407400997653328847.post-54677147423130577802008-08-28T04:38:00.000+10:002008-08-28T04:38:00.000+10:00*Sounds like your "candy" drink is simil...*Sounds like your "candy" drink is similar to my beloved Big Red.<BR/>*Love fish and chips!

I remember (early 70s) when you could get a large bag of candy for a dollar, and a bag of chips for 25 cents! I posted a Nostalgic Saturday too.
