Mike and Ike Orange ‘n CreamName: Mike and Ike Orange ‘n Cream Mike and Ikes are made by the Just Born candy company. They make such love-‘em-or-hate-‘em products as Marshmallow Peeps, Hot Tamales and now Goldenberg Peanut Chews. Now, this review probably comes a little late as I’ve found no mention of these on their website (that’s what I get for shopping at the 99 Cent Only Store). They’re a special edition of Mike and Ikes in Orange ‘n Cream. Think of a chilly orange creamsicle.  Then think of orange aspergum. It’s somewhere in between. Don’t get me wrong, I think Mike and Ikes are great. Well, I’ve loved Hot Tamales for years. They were like the original Jelly Bellys because they actually put lots of flavor into the candies instead of those bland jelly beans that were on the market before. In fact, Just Born makes a line of Teenee Beanees. Mike and Ike also put out a limited flavor last year called Root Beer which I liked in principle but not in practice. However, Just Born did the right thing by making the hotter version of Hot Tamales. So, to sum up, don’t buy really old candy that’s been discontinued. They probably stopped making it for a reason.

I must say that the Rootbeer Float flavored ones I got taste an awful lot like they’re really black licorice flavored! Almost so much that it’s as if there was a mixup at the factory or something! hehe
