Similar age and ya, I remember sour packets being popular in middle school. Can't recall the name, but it was similar to the artificial sugar packets used for coffee, except it had a mixture of sugar and citric acid (the "sour" flavoring) in them.

Was it fundip? I remember it but never really had it that I recall.

[โ€“] sylver_dragon 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't think so. I recall Fundip being in large pouches with the pressed sugar sticks for dipping. These packets were a lot smaller and didn't come with the stick.

Any chance the candy was mexican? Cuz that opens up a whole world of possibilities. Limon 7 packets, pico packets, not to mention a whole suite of Lucas powders.

It was the Limon 7 ones. I would have never remembered that. But seeing them now, yup that's them.
