I remember these, they were so strange and novel! It wasn't so much that they resembled cigarettes, but the consistency! They were made of confectioner's sugar, I think, or something very fine. They would stick to your tongue if they were dry, or dissolve in your mouth slowly with a cool (as in the temperature) sensation on your tongue. They didn't have much flavour, but they were lightly sweet and mildly powdery on the outside.

I remember walking around smoking these things thinking I was so badass lol. Do they still make these? I highly doubt it as someone would have thought of a way to sue the company by now lol.

There is a small (locally owned) Phamracy here that still sells candy cigarettes! I bought a box for the memories. Does anyone remember the Bubble gum cigarettes? The ones that were wrapped in paper and if you blew on them the Powder would blow out like "real smoke"?

there used to be the white ones that were candy and the gum ones that you could blow the sugar out of like smoke. SO good

These are still one of my favorite candies. I love whatever substance they are made from and remember that 'cool' sensation you got when eating them. I was sad when they disappeared and my mother got annoyed about them. I wish they would turn that white sugary substance into another candy. The sticks that come with Fun Dip are the closest thing.

I remember seeing them for a short time when my daughter was little (she was born in 1996) and then all of a sudden they became "Candy Sticks" with slightly different packaging...so they are still around, actually!

My family all smoked when I was a kid. We came home with these and fit right in. I got some fro my son because I was reminiscing the family all sitting around and me with my fake cigs. I saw him and I just about lost it. I threw them away. Read later that kids who eat the candy identify with it later in life and start smoking. OUCH

The magic ingredient that makes them feel so smooth and awsome is actually just cream of tartar! I found that out a couple of years ago. My sister and I were never allowed to have them, yet we both started smoking by high school. Guess Dad should have let us have the candy.

My parents bought a pack of these for us kids once...and then they got mad at us when we pretended to smoke them! Go figure.

I have to disagree about eating the candy cigs, then growing up and smoking the real ones. I never did start smoking- it's gross! They changed the formula, like everything else, and the new ones just don't taste the same as they did when I was a kid in the 70's. I remember a slight spearminty/pepperminty flavor.
