Rootbeer Barrels Candy




These classic treats were introduced in...ah what the hell...I don't know. The history is pretty sketchy on these, but there were versions by Brach and various other companys that are all tasty if you like root beer. These are a classic candy that has been around longer than I will ever be, but they stand out as some really cool candy, These were one of the ones to grab with the money you should have put in the collection plate in church before you snuck over to your local convenience store (by the way, your parents knew..they did it to). Please feel fill in the blanks with any knowledge you might have on the origins of these. See ya, and be sure to check back to see more Cool Old Junk...
