I will seek it out next time I "happen" to go there. My other grandparents had a lot of hard candy, like sour balls and butterscotch discs. Not terrible, but NOT Almond Roca, needless to say.<br /> <br /> A grandpa who is partial to Hershey bars is, indeed, a very fortunate and excellent grandpa to have. Both of my grandpas were diabetic - A fate, I think, worse than... well... it would really suck. <br /> <br /> Faith,

A grandpa who is partial to Hershey bars is, indeed, a very fortunate and excellent grandpa to have. Both of my grandpas were diabetic - A fate, I think, worse than… well… it would really suck.

My kids never went for that. Grandpa (father in law) dispenses mint lifesavers, still a big favorite even though the boys are now 15 and 18. My own grandma was partial to Hershey bars.
