The Five Flavor LifeSavers are not a compressed dextrose candy, instead they’re a boiled sugar candy. While the Pep-O-Mint was going strong, the fruit flavored versions were introduced in 1924 as simple hard candy disks. In 1929 technology caught up with demand and LifeSavers got their holes. The original fruit roll was all citrus - Lemon, Lime and Orange. In 1935 they became the Five Flavor Roll with Cherry and Pineapple joining the mix. And that’s how it was until 2003.

Ick I hated the pineapple flavor.  My favorite has always been cherry.  I probably haven't had one in years. :notworthy: :notworthy:

I used to like getting the gift box, full of rolls, that looked like a book, in my Christmas stocking.  My mom always carried Wint-o-green in her purse.  Today I have a red Lifesaver shaped tin in my tin collection.   ;)
