If you are a fan of eating the candy Fantales, I would recommend stocking up now as the company will be discontinuing it. I’m seeing… while stock lasts

This is truly a sad day for the country but I have this sneaking suspicion that it will rally sales and save the brand. We've seen other lollies/chocolates die but Fantales are, in my opinion, a level above those losers.

Idk tbh but I’ve been very sad for all the past ones that have discontinued and never came back. Pascalls columbines ~ I still remember your glorious caramel goodness 😢

Far out I'd forgotten about Columbines until this very moment. Used to be my mum's "handbag candy" of choice when I was growing up.

They were my absolute favourite

:O WHAT? NO! I LOVE FANTALES! Why would they discontinue it?

[-] Goddess_Amaterasu@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

I just googled because I had no idea : apparently it’s dued to decline in sales

I mean if you think something will be around forever you don’t tend to buy it all the time right? But if no one is really buying it, then there’s not much reason for a company to make something if it’s not selling. Unless you’re the type to buy a packet or more of item every single week then it makes sense business wise

I agree. It’s been around since 1930! Wow
