But the ones Sue sent are definitely not those.
Interesting.
Jayne: There's times I think you don't take me seriously. I think that ought to change. Mal: Do you think it's likely to?

Ooh, I like the idea of cinnamon candy with chocolate filling. The chik-o-stix I am less enthused about (though butterfingers are awesome)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I also forgot to say, I got msbelle's holiday card and it made my day!
Also, I have never heard of chicken bones either. not the delicious ones, anyway.

I think I've had chicken bones candy under a different name ... I think I'd know if I'd eaten something with that name.
In regard to the bread ... place I used to work, we had a woman who would try to impress people with her mad baking skills ... she once made bread that she'd pierced and then dripped different flavors/colors of Jell-O into. Weird. And wet. Tasted about as bad as it looked.

Apparently it's an Australian thing. But no one knows who brought it.

Oooh, mystery Fairy Bread!
I have never heard of any of these sweet things.

Chicken Bones are from a regional candy maker and are a Christmas tradition around here. But they're very divisive. Lots of people think they taste terrible, while others can't wait for them to come back every year. My BFF when I was little would get them in her stocking every year and be very excited. I have to say, I find hard candies with soft centres a little jarring, texturally.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
My grandmother used to have them at Christmas, too. The chocolate with mint and also the peanut butter ones. I never knew they were called chicken bones. Are they considered a Canadian thing? My family straddled the Detroit River and family reunions in Windsor were common when my dad was kid.
