Yep, I mean these Nerds,
not these Nerds.....
...created by the Wonka Candy Company (well, it was actually Nestle but someone was smart enough to realize that a bunch of us grew up watching the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and "renamed" the manufacturer) in 1983, it was simply sugar crystals coated with even more sugar. Give it a kid-friendly name and watch it soar off the candy isle. Strawberry/Grape were the most popular flavor combo but it was available in other flavors (not that I ever saw). But we lived in a world where sugar-coated sugar was sold under the name of a group of people that were made fun of for being dorky.
What were we thinking??
