The Holiday Specials We Love: Season 4 Holiday Preseason 

On this episode of HSWL we cover candy through the decades from
the 1950's to the 1980's.  The Hershey's chocolate lineup vs. the Nestle
lineup. Twizzlers vs. Red Vines.  Krackel vs. Nestle’s Crunch. Clark Bar
vs. Butterfinger, Now and Laters vs. Mike and Ikes and more.

Who was into Necco Wafers, Chuckles and Bit O' Honey?  What is gimmick candy and why the gimmick achieved success rather than the taste. Razzles, Pop Rocks, Wax Bottles we are talking about you! Can someone bring back the Marathon Bar? The 80's trend toward sour and non-chocolate. What was a Zagnut bar?

This 90-minute pilot has all the hot takes that will have you eating Skittles right out of your hands. We didn’t cover Circus Peanuts or Lifesavers but we have years of programming ahead to get there!

As always, please give us a 5-star review on Apple.
