Life Savers candy did nothing for my buoyancy while swimming. If anything, they increased my chances of drowning because of how damn hard the packaging is to remove when wet.

I loved lifesavers … do they still make them? When I was a little girl back in the 1700″s they had books containing all different flavors of lifesavers. They were really special … we usually got them from Santa Claus. That’s probably why I never see them anymore. The elves quit making them.
You’re right about them being hard to open … and what was up with two layers … a wax paper inner wrapper and the foil wrapper on the outside. Really hard for little fingers to manage. But it was worth the effort !! Thanks for helping me remember that special sweet childhood treat. Jan
