Description
I would buy these when my bus stopped at Wag-a-Bag on the way home from school. They came in a cellophane package of two; always red and grape. These were not chewy (as they are today). I would wedge them in the roof of my mouth, them lick them until my tongue was completely raw! Great with a coke Icee!

I would like to find them too. The only ones I can find are either chewy or not as large. I remember that they came out with giant heart-shaped ones around Valentine's Day and egg-shaped ones at Easter time. Loved them!

I have been searching for these for quite some time. Everything I find on the web indicates they are discontinued. Even the retor candy companies don't have them.

I am kinda like the person at the top of the list. I used to stop by our neighborhood drug store on the way home from school most every day. I lived in town and walked home from school. There is nothing like the big sweet tarts. They are no where to be found today. That is sad. I wish they would start selling them again. I would stock up.

Everyone who visits this site and feels the same about this should contact nestle or wonka and request that they start making them again. Maybe it'll work. Hell, it worked for Family Guy.

I have such fond memories similar to those already mentioned. I lived blocks away from a Modern Dairy store. I would walk or ride my bike there to get these giant sweet tarts. The grape ones were my favorite. I have looked all over for them, but have been unable to find them. Please someone....start making them again! I, too, would stock up!
