[HPFGU-OTChatter] Food from childhood

[Sister Mary Lunatic]

Does anyone remember Space Sticks?  Supposedly modeled on food that the
astronauts ate in space.  They were tubes of ???something about four inches
long, came in chocolate, caramel? and some other flavor.  I know I used to
have boxes of them in my dorm room and then later in my desk at work
(1970's) -- they were such yummy snacks.  I can't find words to describe
what they were made of -- but they were soft melt-in-the-mouth stuff, not
quite so thick and chewy as tootsie-rolls.  Manufactured by Pillsbury or
General Foods, I think.  Haven't seen them for ages.

To go along with the recent threads about snacksetc., the New York
Times today ran an article about websites that sell hard-to-find
foods - the article is
http://www.nytimes.com/2001/04/05/technology/05SHOP.html and links
are on that page as well.
And when I have time, I'll write my disseration on the wonders of
sour cream and potato chips...
