Can you do a banana split?


There are certain things that remind us of our childhood.  The Banana Split does it for me.  I don't know when the last time I actually had one.  I do remember having a lot of them as a kid.  They were the keeper candy I'd find in my Trick-R-Treat bag or in my stocking on Christmas morning.

If I had change jingling in my pocket and I was wanting to fill a bag with penny candy at Cartee's (a mom & pop store in my old neighborhood), you'd bet there'd be a handful coming home.  I remember having to go to the dentist because of eating one once.  It made a filling come out.   Do you remember Banana Splits?  What were some of your favorite penny candies of your youth?
