Does anyone remember the name of this candy? It was a hard candy in a roll (like Life Savers) but without a hole in the middle. It came in Sour Cherry and another sour flavor like apple or something. I thought it may have been Reeds (same size and shape, etc) but I can only find that in Butterscotch. Any ideas? :confused:

I'm thinking it was Reeds. I can picture the candy... wouldn't swear to it but am nearly certain that they used to do Cherry.

Reeds has stopped production of the rolls altogether... and butterscotch is all most places have left.

Until recently, they made Butterscotch, Cinnamon and Root Beer (http://www.oldtimecandy.com/reeds-rolls.htm).
