World War 2 was over and sugar for candy had returned. In the late 1940s and 1950s, candy makers were busily creating new selections – such as flavored Charleston Chews – and bringing back others. Many 1950s candies, such as Goobers and Raisinets were stars at movie theaters and drive-ins, where Americans enjoyed films at over 4,063 outdoor screens. Playing the card game bridge with friends? Bridgemix candy was the swet of choice. Need a breath freshener? Grandmothers carried hard candies in their purses just in case. Advertising also gave older candy a bump, from new Taxi-Cab themed wrappers on Abba Zabba to the advertising campaign for Good n’ Plenty, featuring Choo-Choo Charlie.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","image":{"created_at":"2024-12-12T09:31:28-05:00","alt":null,"width":2048,"height":2048,"src":"\/\/truetreatscandy.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/C_BRIDGE_MIX_2.png?v=1734013889"}},{"id":295430946858,"handle":"60s","updated_at":"2025-05-02T16:15:31-04:00","published_at":"2025-04-23T14:40:41-04:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","published_scope":"global","title":"60s Candy","body_html":""},{"id":291189227562,"handle":"all-candy","updated_at":"2025-05-02T17:15:26-04:00","published_at":"2025-01-30T08:34:32-05:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"","published_scope":"global","title":"ALL CANDY","body_html":""},{"id":285115711530,"handle":"military-candy","updated_at":"2025-05-02T17:15:25-04:00","published_at":"2024-09-19T11:36:45-04:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":null,"published_scope":"web","title":"Military Candy","body_html":null,"image":{"created_at":"2024-09-19T11:38:46-04:00","alt":null,"width":2048,"height":1176,"src":"\/\/truetreatscandy.com\/cdn\/shop\/collections\/Untitled-design-2024-05-10T143934.187-1_155d54f1-edee-4b6c-a262-8d76e3cd3acf.jpg?v=1726760327"}},{"id":290043822122,"handle":"quick-order","title":"Quick Order","updated_at":"2025-05-02T17:15:36-04:00","body_html":null,"published_at":"2025-01-03T14:49:08-05:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"quick","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"variant_price","relation":"greater_than","condition":"0"}],"published_scope":"web"},{"id":285115547690,"handle":"retro-treats","updated_at":"2025-05-02T17:15:25-04:00","published_at":"2024-09-19T11:36:32-04:00","sort_order":"manual","template_suffix":"depict","published_scope":"web","title":"Retro \u0026 Penny Candy","body_html":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom the Circus Peanut of the 1800s to the Satellite Wafers of the 1950s.

Good & Plenty is a familiar candy – and well it should be! It’s the oldest band in the country, with a crunchy sugar shell encompassing pieces of black licorice. The colors remain the same as always – pink and white – and the bite size portions make it perfect for snacking, easy-to carry, and a quick pick-me-up, no fuss or bother. A favorite at movie theaters, great in a bowl at parties with a spoon for easy access. Comes with the story of Good & Plenty and their advertising mascot, Choo-Choo Charlie, is on the label.

Good & Plenty: The Story that Really Rings a Bell
Good & Plenty is the nation’s oldest candy brand. The key to its survival comes down to two factors. First, the name. While Good & Plenty my seem obvious – the candy is good and there’s plenty of it – people used “Good & Plenty” as a description in the turn of century when Good & Plenty was created. The name had rhythm, reasoning, and was common – and memorable: “I want to take him out to the barn and kick him good n’plenty” quoted one news story in 1898 while another, in 1905, said “they mixed it up good n’plenty,” regarding a fishing line. Get the whole Good & Plenty story, as seen in Susan’s books “Fun Food of America” and “Sweet as Sin.”
