Used to LOVE these. Just your standard cheese puffs. They were called Cornies and were in a blue bag. This was in the early 80's and I can't really say when they went away, probably in the 80s. Can't remember what company made them, but I think it

Hi, I wonder if anyone here is old enough to remember a mint candy wafer that came in a long box. This was back in the 50s and 60s. I remember them when I lived in northern Virginia. I think there were about 5 different colors each in it's own secti
