If I ever hear "Red dye number 2, banned Feb 19th, 1976" again, I'll have a stroke.

Remember when all the candy bars were a nickel? And a 12 oz. pop was a dime. Back in the 60's.

The milkshake bar was so good, especially frozen in the summer at the pool! Someone needs to reinvent that bar!

The Caravelle bar was similar to what's known now as the 100 Grand Bar, though back in the 1970s it was the $100,000 Bar.

It's a shame so many great candy bars were banned because of the darn wrapper 😢.

The FDA banned Red Dye #2, but they approved thalidomide, for use as a remedy for treating morning sickness.
