Posted: 7/27/2006 12:48:58 PM What I miss the most is the BIG RED wax lips you could chew and chew ...how sweet they were  niki78 Joined: 5/8/2006 Msg: 7 You Might Be Older Than Dirt.........IF......... Posted: 7/27/2006 1:55:22 PM When every girl you knew owned a pair of jellies and you had every color possible. I remember the wax lips and your jaw hurt the next week from acting like a cow chewing forever on that wax. And does anyone remember the taffy when it came in wax paper or the hot dog gum that was too hot to eat so you just chewed for a couple of minutes and had to swallow just to get through it?  JoeisBored Joined: 7/20/2006 Msg: 8 You Might Be Older Than Dirt.........IF.........
