Seven Up Bar (1951-1979): A candy bar featuring "compartments" filled with 7 different creams--mint, nougat, butterscotch, fudge, coconut, buttercream, and caramel. The closest thing today is the elusive SkyBar, with only 4 fillings

Hard pass. I skip half of those flavors in boxes of chocolates so most of it would go to waste.

No joke: a little shop down the road from me owns the rights to Sky Bars. I can get them easily and I know, while this has been true most of my life, now that's apparently a very rare thing ...I don't even like them that much.

This also begs the question: which of these fillings is superior? What are your Seven Up Bar Filling power rankings?

How would YOU eat this bar? Head on like playing a harmonica, thus getting a mouthful of every filling at once? Or like a standard bar, working your way through each filling?

In that era, did “Seven up” mean something in the lexicon? If two brands were both using the name, I have to imagine it had origins in the common parlance. I guess I could Google it 😉

In addition to the linked list, you can buy a Sky Bar at the Chelsea Market Basket. It's not elusive or discontinued, it's just choice. www.skybarcandy.com/store-locator

annoyed that this existed for the first 7 years of my life and I never even heard of it, let alone got to try it.

This is definitely a bar where I'd eat the "bad" parts first and save the "good" parts to the end even though this strategy is always disappointing in practice.

we used to be a country

It's the tiny Valentine's sampler heart-shaped box of chocolates. but melted into a single bar. Genius.
