Hey suckers! Actually need sucker info.

My friend is looking for suckers he got from Mexico that is a sucker on a stick. The outside is strawberry, and there is a center made out of salty apricot. Got any idea where I can find some?

Thanks:lol:

Sounds like the (common) tamarind & chili lollipops with a salted prune (w/seed) in the middle.

Other lollipops have chili in the middle....

Might find what you're looking for here:

When I come back next time and customs ask me if I have brought anything from Mexico I'll look him right in the eye and say: "A hunnerd SUCKERS!!! Wanna see 'em?" :lol:

Then why do they call 'em candy?

I've tried some of these things.... Very strange. :lol:

I think I would probably like them .....If I were really, really stoned. :cool:

Quite a lot of these have been found to have high concentrations of lead. Not a good thing for young developing bodies. But, for aging stoners the damage has already been done...:lol:

Well crap Oso. I don't suppose they put the lead content on the packaging huh? :lol:

how would they get Lead in to the candy? it is all cooked in hand hammered copper pots with no soldered connections, is it coming from the copper?

That's heavy, man
