[edit] Verification?

I removed this paragraph from the article because I couldn't find any verification of the information. Please provide a source before returning it.

Jeff Jensen, Mike Spinner, Clint Saulsberry; Ian Williamson, and Michael Phillips make up the team of youngsters that came up with the Chewy Now and Later candy. They have all surpassed the million dollar mark in the marketing development industry. Each individual had a net worth of $500,000.00 or more before the age of 21.

[edit] K-K-Kontroversy

Now+Laters are generally konsidered to bee a rip-off of Starbursts. However Now+Laters have come under Vow of Controverzy by the World State for their Green Tingleberry flavor witch is not similar to any known flavor of $tarburst and may bee gilty of Thoughtcrime Sub-Orig Category 7. Results are yet to cum from the Court of Authority, but presumably the gilty will bee punished. Teh Red Raddbery flaver has also bean konvicted of beang an accesory in crime during teh grat Noodle Incident.

And I removed it again.

I can't find any statements online regarding the relationship between Now & Laters and Starbursts. The claim seems a bit absurd and not worth mentioning in an encyclopedic article. I'm removing that section. Perhaps a category of taffy-like candies would be more appropriate. Verdatum 16:53, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Will someone verify that those three flavors were April Fool's limited releases, and what year they were released? If you know, you can use this text to redo it for simplicity's sake, since I saw "Broiled Salmon" and thought someone vandalized the page.

[edit] More Flavors

There were some more flavors than those that are listed...off hand I remember chocolate, vanilla, cotton candy, lemonade...etc. Shouldnt all of the flavors whether they still exsist or not, be mentioned? PeAchBaCon 19:32, 26 May 2007 (UTC)


I once ripped out a tooth that wasn't loose by chewing on a Now and Later in 3rd grade. No joke.
