    How are kids supposed to pull their baby teeth out now? Minties and redskins used to be the go-to but they’ve become soft.

    We have these and Minties mixed in a perpetually fillled bowl at the office. I reflexively grab one every time I walk past. Lately i let the chocolate coating melt in my mouth and chuck the caramel bit out. If they released chocolate coated rocks instead I’d probably be ok with that.

    If cinema’s actually started stocking them again I’d probably buy them more often, they last much longer through a movie than popcorn does. But yeah as others have said they have been hard to find on shelves for a while now

        I honestly think this is part of the problem for Fantales. Same problem with the Chews by The Natural Confectionary Company. It doesn’t take very long at all until you’re familiar with everything, and then the novelty wears off. It surely couldn’t take a lot of effort to have, like, one person spending a day per year coming up with enough new facts to create a lot of variety, and another day or two writing them up properly, could it?

          I agree. I mean, people like chocolate. People like caramel. People like trivia. Can’t help but see this as a major fail by the company.
