Jujube

They cost $1.69 for a 5.5-ounce box.

You may also have seen Jube nougat candies on social media.

Their nostalgic look and jewel tones give them a particular visual appeal.

While classic Jubies were known for a firm, toothy, sticky bite, the modern version's milky nougat has a bit more give.

So there's a story there, and we'll find out what's going on.

Lou, the candy that I think you're talking about is Jujubes.

Remember those? They were like a gel kinda candy, but super, super hard, and they'd stick your teeth together.

Anyway, that's what I think.

Jujubes.

Bye-bye.

I appreciate the call.

I do like Jujubes.

I'm thinking of it right now.

I'm like, "I wish I had one." Well, my favorite all-time candy are Jujubes.

Oh, I love Jujubes.

Laffy Taffy is number two.

But you can't find those anymore either.

Like, they have the movie candy aisle at Target.

It's never there.

No Jujubes.
