Space sticks- Was Food from childhood

[Ellen & John Anglin]

Oh yes I remember these!  Somewhere between Fudge and slightly 
undercooked brownie texture.  I loved the Chocolate flavor, don't 
recall the other flavors at all. 

Now, do you remember Freeze Dried Ice cream?  You can still get that 
at camping supply stores.

Please forgive my spelling- I am a lousy typist, and Yahoo doesn't 
provide a spell check option on it's "mail" or "Post" functions.
