- I definitely remember Fizzies. They stopped making 'em in the sixty's
- I believe. We are dating ourselves here. There used to be many scholl
- yard rumors about kids that ate fizzies and exploded their stomaches and
- similar. Never stopped any of us from chewing on 'em tho'.
- Now we have Poprocks and other sorts of candies for exloding stomache
- rumors.

- Fizzies. They don't make fun food like that anymore.

- Pope Charles SubGenius Pope Of Houston Fizzies, "Bobs" favorite if
- you dissolve 'em in gin.
