             What fun it was in the 80s for us when we were kids during breaktime in school, playtime and birthday occasions. Candies and chocolates we enjoyed during school programs, kiddie parties, Filipino halloween trick-or-treat (yes, I remember we had one in school), Christmas parties and other events. They were often given away as party favors, Christmas candy, halloween candy.

             Obviously, I was a child easily pacified by candy. Not that I have a sweet tooth, I wouldn't even say that out loud because of the family dentist , he-he, but that was the nice side too of being reminded by elders to just enjoy but still take care of our teeth.

            Let me dig the names from my improving memory : Orange Swits orange slices, After Eight Mint Chocolate Thins (my mom's favorite), Nestle Smarties chocolate candy (the original ones), Mars Maltesers Chocolate (which I remember as Mylikes Chocolate that I received in a huge tin box from Brunei) , Benson's Eclair, Life Savers... the list is long.

My fondness for candy, I thank the old candy stores in Manila where there a wide variety to choose from. I thank my mom for the sweet memories, and I share the candies from the 80s which my age group would now regard as their comfort food.
