Thanks everyone for the info
JANE they are or were called opal fruits,i never buy sweets.
OMG you will never know what has just happened,
i tryed in sweet tarts WELLLLLLL
ALL IM SAYING IS THEY GOT THE WORD TART ,BEFORE SWEET ,SHOCK HORROR
Kinda Jane. It takes a while for the Starburst to go down since its bigger while Skittles you just chew it and its gone. Starburst is a Taffy like candy.
Here’s a better meaning of Sweet Tarts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SweeTarts
I hope this helps.
Aly we have starbursts in the UK…they used be called Opal fruits I think.
Shundra…is that similar to skittles but bigger?…or do they have chocolate under the shell?
Still prefer Chocolate…:)
Starbursts is kinda a soft candy you can suck on. It comes in different colors.
Sweet Tarts is a hard you chew. Its real good and comes in different colors too. Its kinda like smarties, but bigger and a little bit hard.
OK. I think I did a terrible job describing it.
Jane

Spice,
Osmond fan or not, you’re welcome to post here.
ps. agree with the desserts!
Is this a trick question? LOL
Don. I have no idea what other candies starts with the letter S. The ones you listed are the only ones I know.
Plus. Boy. You have a good sweet tooth. I love Skittles, Smarties and SweeTarts.
P.S. Thanks for the Henley song, love The Eagles, the Senators Hockey Team owner’s wife (hope you got that gees) loves the Eagles so he brought them to the city for her Birthday. All season ticket holders got in free and the rest had to pay. I didn’t get a ticket, oh well next time.
Noticed alot of Osmond fans on here, Sorry I don’t own one Osmond album or for that matter ever did.
I hope I can still stay!
No, it think that is it. You wouldn’t happen to be doing a campaign for Nestle would you. Ok, enough of the candy dessert is much better.

hey, i found the lyrics for that one song you posted…. the song is Finnish.
The sound of a polka drifted from my neighbor’s
and set my feet a-tapping oh!
Ieva’s mother had her eye on her daughter but
Ieva she managed to fool her, you know.
‘Cause who’s going to listen to mother saying no
when we’re all busy dancing to and fro!
Ieva was smiling, the fiddle it was wailing
as people crowded round to wish her luck.
Everyone was hot but it didn’t seem to bother
the handsome young man, the dashing buck.
‘Cause who’s going to mind a drop of sweat
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro!
Ieva’s mother she shut herself away
in her own quiet room to hum a hymn.
Leaving our hero to have a spot of fun
in a neighbor’s house when the lights are dim.
‘Cause what does it matter what the old folks say
when you’re all busy dancing to and fro!
When the music stopped then the real fun began
and that’s when the laddie fooled around.
When he took her home, when the dancing was over
her mother angrily waiting they found.
But I said to her, Ieva, now don’t you weep
and we’ll soon be dancing to and fro!
I said to her mother now stop that noise
or I won’t be responsible for what I do.
If you go quietly and stay in your room
you won’t get hurt while your daughter I woo.
‘Cause this fine laddie is a wild sort of guy
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro!
One thing I tell you is you won’t trap me,
no, you won’t find me an easy catch.
Travel to the east and travel to the west but
Ieva and I are going to make a match.
‘Cause this fine laddie ain’t the bashful sort
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro.
and oh… a S titled food that is really good: SUGAR. >=D
I know you said candy, but you without sugar, wouldn't have those candies.
