@jjLitke@wandering.shop @rho@fosstodon.org My spouse worked at Northcross Mall in the 1980s and frequented the Lamme's candy store there. Always bought bulk gummi bears and they were always hard because they sat in a breathable bin. To this day, gummi bears are purchased and spend a week or two on the counter opened so they can harden up before consuming. Thank you, Lamme's Candy for great memories and habits.
