Dollar General. I like them in homemade applesauce. Some in for color and some on for a fun taste.

I remember those candies too. They are listed here along with other forgotten ones. Fun to walk down memory lane and no calories included.

I live in Port St. Lucie, Florida, and I buy them at CVS or Walgreens all the time. $1.00 a box.

My grocery store always has them in a small container in the baking aisle. Around Valentines Day they carry larger bags of them.

I found them at Dollar Tree once. They tasted awful, and I threw them away. Apparently, not all redhots are created equal.

We can a lot of applesauce and we love putting red hots in the sauce. Best source is AMAZON. Lots of different configurations of sizes.
We never measure how much we put in each jar of applesauce so each one is a little different. We love eating applesauce all winter long. It's a surprise in every jar.
