/ck/ - Food & Cooking

You haven't had terrible candy if you've never experienced these awful, chalky mints. It was like torture for me to force myself to eat them.

My neighbors were a lovely and sweet elderly couple in their 70's or 80's when I was a child. I liked to go over and talk with them all the time, but they'd always give me a handful of these when I came over. Even if I tried to politely decline, they'd think I was being nice and told me it was okay and would put some directly in my hand. I'd sometimes stick them in my pocket saying I'd save them for later.
Good memories, though.
