Do you still remember these sweet treats?

Batang 90s (even the 80s and 2000s) are blessed with snacks that were born during the past decades ago. Although a few of these were gone or became rare in the market, some of these food are still available today.

Here's a list of candies, sweet and chewy treats Batang 90s once loved:

Ricoa’s Curly Tops & Flat Tops

Curly Tops & Flat Tops

Flat Tops and Curly Tops were both created by the same company. Taste wise, they both tastes the same and the only difference is that Flat Tops have flat top surface, while Curly Tops have curly ridges and a small swirl on the top. Curly Tops can only be bought in a box and cannot be retailed per piece like Flat Tops. ORDER A PACK OF FLAT TOPS & CURLY TOPS HERE

The chocolate bar has been a favorite of Pinoys, with its familiar layers of creamy caramel, soft nougat, and crunchy peanuts covered by a thick coating of rich, milk chocolate.

Orange Swits

Orange Swits

Before Potchi was even conceptualized, we had Orange Swits, the purveyor of local sugar-coated jelly treats in the country. Better brush your teeth after, though. They’re a little clingy. ORDER A PACK OF ORANGE SWITS HERE

If you grew up in the '80s or '90s, chances are, you enjoyed many a piece of the milk candy known as White Rabbit. With its nostalgic white, blue, and red packaging, the Chinese candy holds a special place in the memory of many Filipinos. ORDER A PACK OF WHITE RABBIT HERE

Viva Caramel Candy

Viva Caramel Candy

Viva Caramel is essentially hard caramel-flavored candy wrapped around soft chocolate paste. The hard caramel has more of a buttery taste, while the soft inside has more of a rough cocoa taste to it.

Mik-Mik Milk Powder

Amusingly enough, the fine white grains of milk remind us of a different, more notorious white powder and the effects are similar too: an addicting type of sweet bliss that’ll make you oblivious to the rest of the cruel world.
