Life Savers

evolutions they've been through.
Originally there were the p-mint types and the five flavors, right?
Then we went into the other types. Tropical fruit etc. I remember the
candy cane kind at Christmas. Yum-yum! Now they have the Creme
Savers, which I'm addicted to!!
My mom always seemed to carry the peppermint ones, but they seemed (and
still do seem) too dry for my tongue. Yucky! The regular orange and
cherry were my favs until the strawberry creme savers.
Any Life Savers memories out there?

I hated cause it always gave me a headache. Remember the Cheers episode where
Carla was making the wint-o-green spark in her teeth and everyone was under the
blanket cause it was dark enough to see it?!! I loved that!

think 10 different packs of Lifesavers. Still love FANCY Fruits, but I
don't know if you can get those anymore....and Butter Rum, which is still
out there.

Remember the ad with Henry Fonda? How about the one with Suzanne Somers and
her father?
I remember getting Lifesavers a lot over the years. It seems that I was about
ten before I even realized they came in other flavors besides five-flavored,
since that one was the most heavily marketed toward kids...

savers! my sister and i used to fight over who got the package of
"wild cherry" lifesavers, man that was a good flavour! then i totally
abandoned lifesavers until about three years ago when one of my
coworkers gave me a lifesaver (i was out of my trademark gummi bears,
which i usually have a big-ass wal mart tub of them in my desk drawer)
and i became hooked all over again!!! has anyone had those big
lifesavers??? those are excellent, but i hate that they're
individually wrapped (i'm wrapping removably incompetent), and the
GUMMI SAVERS--i've died and gone to heaven!!!

How about the one with the father and his depressed son walking out of
the ice rink. The son was upset because he "...let the puck get by him,
and lost the hockey game." That commercial was so well known that an
episode of Happy Days did a joke based on it.
But who remembers another, animated commercial for Life Savers from the
earlier '70s. This was a cartoon of a sort of factory that made the
candy and stacked it into the roll package. The soundtrack was an
a capella song of:
(unison) "Life Savers, Life Savers fun to eat, 22 flavors can't be beat
(group sings) "Hey, Life Savers!"
(unison) "Life Savers, Life Savers <something> rolls, 22 flavors, 22
holes."
(group sings) "Hey, Life Savers!"
(unison) "Oh Life Savers."
