Still one of my favorites!!

I've said it before and I'll say it again. commercials of the 8o's were so much more involved. I still remember the crazy comercial for this candy when it first came out. Kinda sticks with the memory like those darn Twisler's Lips.

This candy was my criminal downfall. When I was about 6, I went to Girl Scout camp for about 4 days. On the last night, we had a cook-out with hamburgers, etc. At the end of the condiment/serving table, there was a box of candy bars. I thought they were dessert and picked one up. Later, I found out they were 50 cents each to buy. I was too ashamed and embarrassed to take it back up to the table and admit that I had mistakenly taken it without paying. So, I palmed it in my hand and threw it down the latrine to hide the evidence. I felt too bad to eat it, but felt I needed to get rid of it anyway. Weird. I still feel bad about that...

My brother and I had the whole commercial memorized! For my 37th Birthday last month he sent me an e-card with a talking squirrel that spoke whatever you typed...you guessed it, the whatchamacallit ad. Great memories!

I remember my mother buying me one of these on a cold day while we were living in San Francisco. Was underwhelming at the time.
