My grandma actually had those, in a fancy lidded candy dish on the coffee table, and whenever I eat one, I'm magically transported right back into her living room. The nostalgic superiority of strawberry grandma candy beats Werther's into the ground. I will die on this hill.(Those weird hard-then-chewy strawberry things that you got out of a bulk candy bin in an old-fashioned grocery or department store are the superior grandma candy, though.)
Honestly, I'm surprised the twee wannabe-cottagecore crowd hasn't made those strawberry candies a Thing, given the popularity of seemingly everything else strawberry-themed. But since they're made by so many different manufacturers, I guess nobody's putting up the money for a social media influencer campaign.
