Tongue-destroying sour discs. Sealed tins sell for $100 on eBay.
Altoid Sours remain the most aggressively addictive candy ever discontinued, with sealed tins now commanding $50-100 on eBay. The citrus and tangerine discs delivered a tartness so intense it triggered tears, making them outperform #10 Hi-C Ecto Cooler in staying power and cult demand. Discontinued around 2010 without explanation, they generate multiple trending social media campaigns each year, yet parent company Wrigley ignores the free marketing. This sustained nostalgia proves they were faster than the average candy to build a loyal fanbase and cheaper than the typical rival to produce.
