Advanced 70’s technology brought us one of the greatest 80’s candy ever made. You hadn’t lived until you felt the sensation of things exploding in your mouth.

The interest kind of died down a little bit until you heard the story that someone actually died while eating pop rocks and drinking a coke. That’s when your parents told you that a candy was “dangerous”. That’s also when you ran out and found as many Pop Rocks as you can and drank them with a coke.

It was disappointing to not explode…

  1. haha! pop rocks are so much fun! but, for shame… I only discovered their awesomeness a year ago. really lame, huh? especially for someone born in the 80s. guess my parents also subscribed to the “pop rocks are dangerous” theory. 🙂

    I know it’s my filthy mind, but I don’t like the saying “things exploding in your mouth”. I do like Pop Rocks though.
