I was digging through some stuff today, and I found this candy. It's a Bom-Bomb shaped container that has a lollipop and some fizzy powder inside. It's pretty old, copyright 2001, so I wouldn't eat it.
This could be added to the merchandice section of the website.
-
I've seen that Bob-omb candy before. Since it's still sealed, I'm sure it's perfectly safe to eat.
-
you should sell one of those on Ebay, who knose who much it may cost!
-
Yeah, I believe the candy was talked about in an earlier mailbag from that time.
-
I beleive these candy bob-ombs where made by a company called "Au'some candies". They made alot Nintendo styled candy. They also had a website up for awhile, put I think it's no longer running now.
-
Yeah, I remember wanting those bob-omb candies really badly. They made jelly pops too (I have Mario, DK, and Link)
-
Oh yeah, I remember the jelly pops, and they still sell them in gamestops. Along with GC's and GBA's shaped containers with candy inside.
-
I once had a box of those jelly pops. I though they looked gross.
-
Today I work I found we now sell at the checkout counter Nintendo Power Mints. They are contained in an NES controller metal case, but unfortunately the mints themselves are plain white cylinders.
-
They've still got a website! But I don't know if it's the exact same company. Au'some candies (http://www.ausomecandy.com/ausome/menu.html?site=1)
-
I bought a tin of the Nintendo Power Mints, and the mints suck. I also got an energy drink with Mario on it, called Power Up!, which just tasted like a warm Sprite, with some kind of berry slightly hidden in the flavor. And I didn't feel any more energized than I had before I drank it.
-
I remember Mario Macaroni and Cheese. It was made by Kraft. Back in the day I used to love the Wild Wheels variety of Kraft but they stopped making it in the mid 1990s. The shapes of the Mario one looked close enough so I switched to that for a while. Then I went to regular Macaroni and Cheese since I got old and boring.
-
Is anybody old enough here to remember Donkey Kong Cereal?
-
Hmm, those are probably not too common and may have some value. Very interesting find.
-
I bought one of those bob-ombs before, it was in a gas station when I was little, except mine had a pink fuse, I still have it, maybe I will post a picture.....
-
I never bought any of the jelly pops, I saw them, but they did not spark any kind of special interest to me.
-
I've tried all four of the jelly pops in the past. Mario was strawberry, Yoshi was green apple (my favorite of the four), Link was watermelon and...I have no idea what D.K. was, but it was horrible!
-
DK was Gorilla flavored.
