    I spent MILLIONS OF DOLLARS on lemonheads, one dime at a time. 11 cents with tax.

    I prefer Appleheads to Lemonheads. But they're so much harder to find for some reason. They seem to have a different sort of flavor than other sour apple flavored candies have, for some reason.

      I think Appleheads used Apple juice concentrate like Lemonheads use lemon juice concentrate. I think those were the only two that actually used real fruit juice of their flavor as the primary flavoring (I think all of them had lemon juice as an ingredient). I remember I didn't really like any of the other flavors except the apple and grape although the last few times I had the grape ones they tasted really off.

      @@SilverScaleMA Where did you buy them? I only ever see the lemon ones in stores, anymore. And years ago, I only ever saw the lemon and apple ones in stores, but never other flavors.

      @Melissa0774 it has probably been a good 15 years since I have seen any of the other varieties outside of online specialty stores. When I was really little though the Walmart in my area had all the varieties though they gradually dropped all but the Lemonheads one by one. Very rarely I see the bags of the individually wrapped candies with all the varieties around Halloween but I never get them since I don't like half the flavors.

    If you ever get a chance to try freeze dried LemonHeads, give it a go. They're really tasty.

      Yep, that’s one of the nice things, it’s a very light crunch and they just turn to powder.

    How could you not mention Alexander the Grape, Johnny Appletreats, and Cherry Clan, which became (ugh) Grapehead, Applehead, and Cherryhead?

    This year I started buying small boxes and now I buy the big boxes of them. They were off my radar for a long time. I eat them setting here at the computer watching videos about Lemonheads and stuff.
