So they were basically decoration? lolOriginally Posted by Mistletoe
I asked my mother what flavors of ribbon candy she used to get us- she said she didn't realize they came in different flavors. She never really liked them, but got them because they were pretty.

Basically.So they were basically decoration? lolFunny that none of my sisters even ate them. You'd think we'd eat anything sugar, since we were a 'health food' house growing up. Though, we each got a large candy cane in our favorite flavor in our stocking and they took awhile to eat, so maybe we never got around to the ribbon candy.
But she got them every year, so I have a warm association between them and Christmas.

Very interesting to say the least. I don't think I've ever heard of someone doing that...

Ribbon candy is still my favorite, but I do enjoy some of the various flavors done in candy canes. Especially the Hawaiian Punch variety...

That is one heck of an idea. I'll save a 12 pack for CIJ 2022. Thanks for the idea Mistletoe...That sounds like something for Christmas in July.

BTW, I did keep a pack of the Hawaiian punch canes for CIJ. But I understand they have a Chocolate Mint candy cane coming out this year...

I am a sucker for peppermint everything but my real weakness is white peppermint chocolate.
