I just ate a roll of it after visiting an old timey candy store this week. Tasted as good as always and I chose to ignore the old timey part of the candy store.

That and wintogreen were my 2 favorite rolls in the pack and I consume wintogreen lifesavers quite regularly.

My absolute favourite one. Although pepomint was a very close second.

Don’t forget the wintergreen flavor that would make sparks if you ate it in the dark.

[-]

RAWR_Orree@reddit

Same... So good. I haven't had them in ages.

[-]

COskiier-5691@reddit

I just found some at a game/puzzle store, got the last roll!

[-]

ApplianceHealer@reddit

Love Butter Rum, but sad to note Zima Gold was the same flavor.

[-]

Lisa100176@reddit

You can get them but they are hard to find. My SO likes to get them for road trips.

If I didn't receive a Lifesavers Book for the Holidays, it was a sad year.

[-]

So much this. Haven't seen them in years. Went to Michaels with my mom to get some stuff for Christmas and saw a full display box. Grabbed the whole display box and put it on the counter with my stuff. The girl, early 20's at best just looked at me.

I said, you just don't understand. Without missing a beat, she replied, okay jazy Jeff. I wasn't sure if I was complimented or insulted.

deehovey@reddit

I'm actually really impressed with her reply. I feel like most young 20s wouldn't know the reference.

[-]

Ich_Bin_Ein_Nerd@reddit

Yes! My SO and I went to Michael's this past Wednesday. He spied them on the shelf as we were leaving and got so excited that he bought 4 rolls, and this dude never eats candy. They taste way more rummy than I remember them, but still pretty tasty.

CrowsSayCawCaw@reddit

Okay, so this gives me the perfect excuse to go to Michael's for some new craft supplies. 😺

[-]

Nerdy_Fat_Guy@reddit

It seems they're relegated to the craft stores, I get mine at Joann's.

[-]

DreadPirateZoidberg@reddit

My mom got my brother and I one of those every Christmas into my late 30’s. I kinda miss them.

[-]

Born-Calligrapher794@reddit

In my stocking every Christmas!

[-]

ScottLS@reddit (OP)

I have been on the lookout for a box of Lifesavers.

[-]

Pooks23@reddit

They only come as a five pack now/ one half of the book. Cheap bastids!!!!

[-]

Nailz30@reddit

And they are all the same flavor now, Lame!!!

[-]

Pooks23@reddit

That’s criminal!!!! I swear the ones I saw were multi flavors. Double bastids!!!!

[-]

hells_cowbells@reddit

I used to get those in my stocking.

[-]

PurpleSky444@reddit

I remember those! Every year got one!

[-]

Qedtanya13@reddit

God those were my favorite!

Ahazeuris@reddit

I can remember my grandmother dipping these in actual rum, as a “treat,” and then giving them to us. The adults all thought it was quite funny.

[-]

Nerdy_Fat_Guy@reddit

Best flavor ever!

[-]

dystopiadattopia@reddit

Gasp! My favorite!

[-]

technoph0be@reddit

This was hands down the best flavour, but Wint-o-Green could be used to make sparks in your teeth!

[-]

adelec123@reddit

Does anyone remember the Lifesaver rolls that were all strawberry or the Tropical ones? They had banana, coconut, tangerine flavors. I loved those so much!

[-]

sugarlump858@reddit

I found these at the Calico Ghost Town General Store. Damn near cleaned them out. Cinnamon, cherry, root beer flavors, all of them. They had sodas with real sugar, too. If it wasn't the temperature of the sun out in the desert right now, I'd go back for more.

[-]

Slight_Succotash9495@reddit

I just bought some the other day & made myself sick eating all of them in about an hour.

Rum is Good- J. Sparrow

DiscountEven4703@reddit

Put a cherry one in, and a Butter rum one in and you are all set

[-]

BigMoFuggah@reddit

When I was a kid, my mom always had a roll of Butter Rum Life Savers in her purse.

[-]

Recipe_Limp@reddit

Heck YES!!!!!

[-]

Top_Meaning7972@reddit

Just scrolling past and saw butter bum lol

[-]

MidnightNo1766@reddit

Tangerine will always be my favorite flavor followed by wild cherry.

[-]

ScottLS@reddit (OP)

I can't recall ever having Tangerine Lifesavers, but damn that sounds like something to pop in before a kiss as a teenager.

[-]

Affectionate-Map2583@reddit

Tangerine was part of the "tropical fruits" roll. I loved the banana, mango and coconut from that roll. I'd buy cherry and tropical fruits from the school store, and butter rum from time to time to change things up.

[-]

MidnightNo1766@reddit

On and off you've been able to buy entire rolls of tangerine. It was great.

[-]

snowqueen_6@reddit

I still buy wintergreens. My dad always kept them in the car. He recently passed away and popping one always reminds me of him and good times singing along to music on car rides. I will have to look for butter rum. Soooo good!

[-]

Plane-Fan9006@reddit

These came out of your weird aunt's purse with the first one covered in cat hair, lint, and a kleenex stuck to it. Gee, what a treat!

[-]

all_the_names_suck@reddit

Butter rum was my favorite!

[-]

ugly_tst@reddit

Certs beat them all!

[-]

Kimber80@reddit

Butter Rum is the bomb

[-]

Nailz30@reddit

These are my favorite for a plane ride, got my son hooked too. They have them in alot of airport snackbshops

Fifth grade "Outdoor Education" (three day trip to a camp), we did a night hike. Out away from the city, so it was DARK dark. Counselor gave us all mint LifeSavers and told us all to chew them with our months open. Damn things threw sparks. It was wild.

Also saw the Milky Way. Pretty cool night.

[-]

Graphite-and-Glitter@reddit

Don't forget: if you bite a Wintergreen Life Saver in the dark, it makes a spark. ✨

B4USLIPN2@reddit

The Christmas Book had a pack of five on each side of the book. Wild Cherry(red), Peppermint( blue), Wintergreen( green), Butter Rum( as pictured) and multi flavored ( rainbow). The book had a story in it, and I think some puzzles. Great stocking stuffer.

[-]

ScottLS@reddit (OP)

I brought this as a roll at Five Below
