The memory of mini jawbreakers

Last week, someone at work put a box of the mini jawbreakers in our candy dish. You know the ones....they come in the little green box and are about the size of a Sixlet. Anyways, I walked by, and then doubled back because I was like "OH MY GOODNESS!!! Do you all remember these?! I have not seen these forever!" I remember when we were little kids, we would have a box of these and pass the box around. Of course, everyone had a favorite color. Mine happened to be yellow. We would all get a jawbreaker out and hold it in our hand and the color would start coming off in our hands because they were sweating! Then, on the count of three, we all had to put the jawbreaker in our mouth and start to suck...then you had to stick your tongue out to see if yours was getting smaller the fastest. It was a big contest and so much fun. It brought back a great childhood memory for me and made me smile for a little while when the day was a little hectic and gray. :)
