at that time they're all ghetto cheap candies made from sub-standard stuff. they won't sell to the larger global market. only some sinkies pine for them. biz cannot survive on nostalgia.
they sell like hotcakes in china,just because u have forgotten ur roots and forefather's face......all races have their sweets and confectionary like the indians with their sweets and milk balls and japs with their mochis and daifukus.
