I remember when Now and Later candies (my favorites) were just .10 cents a pack. Now they cost $1.25 in some stores. And they don't even have my flavors anymore.

I remember when candy bars were .07 cents. Like a Snickers or back then they had Marathon bars.

I remember when gas was 29.9.

The first Milky Way Bar I can recall buying was .05. Just as my first Comic Book, bought out of my weekly allowance of 50 cents, was 10 cents.

For 25 cents I could buy enough "Penny Candy" to overdose on sugar.

The Saturday Matinee was 25 cents.

For another quarter you could get a bag of popcorn and a Coke (sweetened with non-GMO Cane Sugar).

Also, back then, they used Palm Oil which, along with coconut oil, is one of the healthiest oils one can ingest especially for high heat cooking.

Now it's probably GMO canola poison.

Even the candy bars had sugar, not corn syrup.

They're finally making those sodas again and they taste so much better. Still gotta limit the sugar intake tho, it's a cancer feeder.
