Many of us have gotten the Lifesavers Sweet Storybook in our Christmas stockings for years. It has become a cherished tradition.
The original, now a collectors item it seems, had 12 Lifesavers rolls in them, and a variety of flavors: Pep-o-mint, Spear-o-mint, Butterscotch, Orange, Lemon, Wild Cherry, Wint-o-green, Clove, Stik-o-Pep, Butter Rum, Crist-o-mint, and Five Flavor. Then, they went to a 10-pack, but still had a great variety. Eventually, they went to an 8-pack...and then to the dreaded 6-pack. Even the 6-pack was mildly ok, 2 Five Flavor, 2 Wild Cherry, 2 Tropical Fruits.
Now, we get stuck with the 6-pack of Five Flavor only! They believe their market is a bunch of candy- hungry children. They work year after year to improve the revenue of The Wrigley Company by taking a way a few rolls from the books every few years. This has gone too far!
Bring back the Sweet Story Book that has variety of flavors and doesn't ruin our traditions!
Bring back the life saver book!!!! From a person that can’t have chocolate this was something I also looked forward to. Now my daughter doesn’t like chocolate , so this was one of her favorite…. M&M not going to help us…. Or at least bring the skittle book back!
