Lifesavers Fruit Tarts - 6 ct Reader Reviews Life Savers are a great American staple, and have been since they were invented in 1912 by Clarence Crane. (The rights were sold in 1913 to Edward Noble, and it was under him that they really gained their nationwide popularity.) The original Life Savers were peppermint, and the well-known fruit flavors began to appear in 1929. Well, they have once again hit on a new idea - Life Savers Fruit Tarts! These excellent little candies (a little smaller than the regular Life Savers, the size of mints, really) come in quirky tins, and in an assortment of flavors. The fruit tarts in these tins come in three flavors - Watermelon, Cherry-Lemonade, and Mandarin Orange. I hate the sour candies that begin with a burst of tasteless sour, and then suddenly become sickeningly sweet candies. Well, I don't know how they did it, but they are nice and tart, and stay tart until you suck them down to nothing! Now, what is my favorite of these three flavors? Well, sometimes I think it's the Watermelon, and sometimes the Cherry-Lemonage...and sometimes the Mandarin Orange. I can't help it, they all taste great! So, if you want a great tasting tart candy, then get these Life Savers, they are GREAT! |
