In reply to BIg J. I love airheads too but it'd be great if no one has to eat your dick per se.

I love airheads have been for years growing up as a lil kid, but I would love for you all to switch up the Easter collection, take out the blue raspberry and exchange it for grap.. makes more since for Easter pink, green, and purple and besides grape is better than blue raspberry just saying ‍♀️

In reply to Anonymous. Also, Maddie, the name came from Steve's son. He asked his son to write a list out of names that he would call goofy kids. He chose the name airhead out of that list

In reply to Maddie. Maddie, the story you just told is a complete lie. Either,some other idiot wrote this lie and you decided it sounds true ,thus sharing it with us. Or, you just made that up. Either way, get your facts straight before you infect everyone with your lies.

*They’re

Also, that’s a completely different story than what’s on the actual website: “Airheads were invented right here in the USA. While working in our
factory one day in 1986, we discovered that we could make a totally
unique chewy candy, one like the world had never seen! We thought it
was delicious, but to be sure, we asked hundreds of kids to try it.
They loved it too! Those same kids gave it the name ‘Airheads’.”

Further detail reveals that Steve Bruner named the candy: “On the wrapper, I used [wordplay], a new high in fruity flavors. Coming
out of the hippie generation, the word “high” could be used in many
different ways. I thought it was apropos of a balloon graphic and it
worked.”

i can’t believe you’d never even tried an airhead! i always thought they were called airheads because they they are light and when fresh almost kinda fluffy. like an airated taffy.

Most people who enjoy the chewy texture inside of mentos, also enjoy Airheads. Wonder why? In fact, they are made of the same substance just flavored and colored differently. And I actually know the namer of Airheads. He was my sixth grade teacher. You see, most candy companies like to aim their products toward children. And one night while he was out to dinner his daughter was tellung him about the crazy kids in her class and what they do at parties. Of course, his daughter was only in fifth grade, so parties consisted of pin the tail on the donkey…. And CANDY! so, after hearing this story, james(the namer) said, “oh those kids these days, after eating all that candy… Their airheads!” thus came the name of the wonderful candy that is Airheads.

They are not, they’re quite gritty in texture and unappealign to me because of that.

But to each thier own.

These aren’t like Laffy Taffy? I just assumed they were and thus had no real use for them since I get Laffy Taffy at my work for free and I don’t really eat it, but can, so do occasionally…
