Hi,

I'm John, I run an on-line, retro candy store, and every once in a
while I get requests and questions about old candy brands from
customers. I have a customer that says in the sixties and early
seventies she remembers a sour apple and orange flavored chewing gum.
She thinks it was made by Adams. Can anyone verify or deny with
correct info?

Also, is there a group devoted to candy? Which group would be the best
for questions like this?

Thanks,
John

Totally "Zebra Stripe" !! It lost it's flavor after about 10 seconds and you
had to get a new piece
