It's candy for baby boomers ... retro-candy.
Chuckles

And Woodstock Candy & Fudge in Woodstock, New York sells it.

Bridget Sweeney-Bell opened up shop in 1995 with the goal of making the world's best fudge — but also found herself fulfilling the dreams of those who waxed nostalgic for treats from the past.

Bridget says it's a special treat for parents to share the candy they ate as a child with their own children.

It's part of Elliott's three-week Ocean Harvest Festival.
