General Question about discontinued candy. Naturally, some discontinued candy brings back memories, but getting beyond the obvious I’d like to ask why are they discontinued – is it sales, is it ingredients? I know in some cases companies take over other companies and maybe the new company’s equipment is not geared towards making a candy.
I can’t help but think of those delicious little mint humbugs that my grandmother always gave me. I remember them so well from my childhood. They were a brown and white striped hard minty candy on the outside with a softer, chewier finish.
Mint humbugs were a British candy. So delicious, they even featured a role in the Harry Potter feasts at Hogwarts. Professor Dumbledore loved the “muggle” sweets!
