I didn't think anyone remembered the Scrunch bar. I don't know who made it, but I wish they would start making it again. These candy bars ruled!

I loved those Skrunch candy bars! My dad used to bring me one almost every day after work when I was a kid. I was so spoiled! I wish they would start making them again!!

I have never been a candy lover, but the Scrunch Bar was a huge exception! I LOVED going to the local grocery store after school and buying several of these to eat before I got home (for dinner, of course). I was so excited when they started making Willie Wonka candy again, because I thought the Scrunch bar would be made again. Sadly, it didn't happen. Oh, to dream....

I loved Super Scrunch!! When it went away, i think they tried to replace it with Wachamacalit (sp), but no way was it the same!!

For years I have been asking anyone and everyone I knew if they remembered this candy bar which has always been my all time favorite. No-one did. They all told me that I was crazy and that it was just in my head. I am so hyped to know that I am NOT crazy. I will be making sure that everyone I ever asked knows it to! So they absolutely positively do NOT make these anymore? Maybe they just don't sell them around us anymore. If not I would like to get enough people on board to get them to make them again.

My Grandpa was an Exec at Concord Confections (aka. Willy Wonka Candies.) I remember as a child going to the factory and there was this HUGE, stainless steel bowl full of the peanut butter for Scrunch and Oompa Loompas. I always felt like Charlie growing up, I also got to eat several candies that never made it to market, I was sort of a beta tester. Does anyone remember the Neopolitan bars or Chocolate Chubbies? They also used to make different flavors of tangy taffy (chocolate, vanilla, orange cream, strawberry, banana, etc...) All the Wonka Chocolate type candies seemed to cease when they got a contract with Quaker Oats to make their first granola bars. Do you remember Crunchola? I guess Nestle wanted to keep their chocolate to their core Nestle brands. :-(

The Scrunch bar was sort of like a Hershey's 5th Avenue, or the Clark Bar... in the same family as Butterfingers...

I remember the candy bar. I would go on lunch hr from school and grab a scrunch candy bar at the dime store in the late 70's or early 80's. I wished they still made them.
