Jolly Rancher Square Lollipops

This is what I do when I am procrastinating reading/studying...I do things like searching online (and in stores) for the original Jolly Rancher square lollipops, and then I contact Hershey's, the maker of Jolly Rancher candies, to say this:

Hello, I have been looking wherever I can (supermarkets, drug stores, candy stores) for the original Jolly Rancher lollipops, which are the square-shaped. I have been disappointed in my search and apparently, others who have shopped online at Amazon.com have come across the same disappointment. Do you still make the square lollipops (without fruit-center chews)? Those of us who love the originals swear they taste different - and better - than the fruity-chewy-center ones now (and the original hard candies). If they are discontinued, why were they and will you ever bring them back?

I know I sound desperate...but it's b/c I am! I just want to satisfy my 3-week long and counting craving. :( They're just not the same as the small, individually wrapped pieces either! I hope they respond. Like by sending a huge box of the original lollipops. Maybe they won't b/c I had the audacity to point out/remind them that the original lollipops are the square-shaped ones, as if they didn't know.

Back to studying, until I think of another harebrained idea to "research."

I was Googling to see where I could possibly find the square Jolly Rancher Lollipops. I too am having trouble figuring out where I can find them, if they're still produced, things like that.

Did they ever respond to you?

I too have been looking for the square Jolly Rancher lollipops. Having recently kicked the smoking habit I went in search of my favorite lollipop and good figure I can't find them any where.

I believe they have been discontinued. I found some last year at a dollar store which was further proof that they are no longer being manufactured. Good luck in your search for surplus.
