The 1940s weren’t an easy time for us Americans with WWII going on, but we kept our spirits up and the smiles on our faces up with candy from the 1940s, including those semi-flat chocolate circles that we now know and love as M&Ms, along with Junior Mints and Bazooka bubble gum! Gifting someone born in the 1940s or who just loves 1940s candy? Select candies with an emphasis on carefree fun, such as Fun Dip and Almond Joy candy bars! Feel like Humphrey Bogart by enjoying a Bubble Gum Cigar – candy from the 40s inspired by 40s movie favorites, such as Casablanca!
