Subject: candy/snack of the 70s??
Written By: leftyguest on 10/14/05 at 10:49 pm
i have a terrible memory but maybe someone out there can help.
I a trying to remember a candy/snack that has the following characteristcs (that i can remember)
about 4-5 inches long
round and thin (about the size of a pencil)
sort of chocolate flavored
consistency - firm but not hard.  The best i can describe is if tootsie roll is hard and chewy this was light and less chewy.  LIke a 10% of the consistency of tootsie roll.
Individually wrapped.
I tried describing it to some people and they just look at me with blank stares.
any help you can rpovide would be great
thanks

I remember those. Weren't they called something like Astronaut sticks or Energy sticks, the kind the astronauts were supposed to have eaten. The size of a twix bar, almost. I think they also had peanutbutter, but chocolate was the one we always ate.
