Questions & Answers

Are these still valid after their expiration date?

This product was purchased in December 2020, and the packaging was dated March 2020, indicating it to be best by then. It was a very disappointing experience.

Can you tell me where this 'classic American candy' is ?

My Candy Favorites. We are located in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, and have candy to sell. I am happy to provide you with a reply. The "classic American candy" Lifesavers Butter Rum Hard Candy is made in Mexico.

Which is it? It says 20 single packs as well as 60 rolls, so which one ?

Three packs of 20 rolls are included.

The only option given to me is to purchase every 2 to 6 weeks. Is there a reason why I cannot buy this as a one-time ?

In a perfect world, people should be able to buy every single day if they so desire

Selected User Reviews For Life Savers Butter Rum Hard Candy, 1.14 ounce (20 Single Packs)

You have to try these nostalgic treats if you want to channel your inner 80's The year is An old age
5/5

Have you fond memories of the Butter Rum Lifesavers that your grandma shared with you when you were a child? Are those other hard candies associated with old people just not good enough? Do you find it frustrating to explain what "butter rum" is to somebody under 35 and get confused looks from them? There will be no disappointment for you.

I found the purchase to be very disappointing
3/5

I thought I was going to receive twenty packs of Life Savers Butter Rum candies, but that turned out to be a foolish assumption (right? It has taken me three days to finish all of the opened rolls and throw away several that were already partially unwrapped or had bad rolls in them. So far, none of the packs taste Regardless of whether they are stale, stuck together, broken, or some combination of those, they all seem outdated. One of the rolls in the box is pictured below, in the form it actually appeared when it arrived to me. I won't order these again because they are completely unacceptable.

You should downsize
3/5

I always loved butter rum Lifesavers when I was a kid. It is only a shame that the candy isn't in the original Life Saver size. The mini savers look like little coins. This has been an incredibly frustrating move on the part of corporations.

The moment in Star Wars VI when the newly made Darth Vader learned that his wife and children had died still haunts us? The feeling I had when I opened the Life Savers I ordered was the same as opening an envelope
3/5

I love Life Savers, as you all know. Butter Rum Flavored Life Savors are one of my favorite bars. It was disappointing to discover that the delicious confection was crushed to death when it was delivered. There were maybe 15 rounds in each of the 24 packs -- Other pieces of the cake The only thing to return is that I had to open every package to see what was inside. When I buy next time, I'll buy 'em directly from the factory.

Disappointed to the point of being very disappointed
3/5

As soon as I saw that I could order these, I was delighted! A sturdy cardboard package was delivered with the product As of now, everything seems to be going well. I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my package! It was too hard to chew and the candy was brittle. Rather than just breaking off the roll or crumbling, it was difficult to separate them from each other. When I checked the expiration date, I found 'September 2016'. Not so great, but not as bad as it could have been. It is certain that this product was not at its best at some point in its lifetime, it was probably improperly stored (inside a hot truck or a storeroom), and it suffered for it.

I had a fresh roll in my desk, so I did a straight This is a comparison of A and B. I guess so. It is a huge difference between them. There are only a few things different about the crumbly ones aside from their great taste. They'll probably end up in ice cream toppings since most of them are ground up. This company will not be ordering from me again. Very disappointed. It's a good idea to avoid it as well.

I believe Butter Rum to be the best flavor of Life Saver in the world The new "assorted" is much better than the legacy one
5/5

Eventually if you follow the years, you'll find that this particular flavor is hard to find in supermarkets, which are familiar with the "assorted flavors" brand. I'd rather not spend my money on one of these. A hard candy that tastes like butter rum is simply the best. It is smooth, buttery, and is among the best candies you will ever taste. Even though some say they taste more like butterscotch, whatever, they're worth the price. I got mine in a batch of 20 rolls (it's the only way they come). It's a good idea to keep them on your desk, so you can quickly dig through them. Make sure you keep an eye out for cracked ones too. It is possible that the fragile packs of 20 rolls are placed in a bag and are battered around so much that they are already chipped before you try to Ideally, you should order them with something else so that they arrive in a box and not in a bag that barely has any padding on it. I am not fond of the other flavors in the Life Savers family, with the exception of the wintergreen I grew up with, which is no longer available. You have to watch out as Butter Rum is as addictive as "Hot Tamales" candies in the opposite direction (spicy), but you get what we mean. The grade is Excellent grade.

There is a long way to go before an iconic candy is forgotten
3/5

'The smooth, rich flavor of Butter Rum has been a favorite since 1938,' says the ad, and it was true when Lifesaver made food products. There is a complete difference between this product and the previous one. There must be some kind of it. The taste of frankencandy is like that of a chemical waste disposal facility on the back end. Don't go near him.

The cookies were tasty but difficult to break apart
3/5

I wouldn't buy them You don't want to break your teeth. It's great to have these packs from Amazon. I've purchased them for quite some time now. It took some time for some of my fingers to separate from the remaining ones, but they came apart easily enough not to be a big It was much easier last time to break them apart and the last time they were pretty stuck. This time almost all of them are stuck and are very difficult to separate It's as if they are second quality, having problems like this. There are other life-savour experiences I would like in place of this. What sort of inventory does Amazon sell? Is it old stock or damaged or distressed stock? My teeth may have to be fixed if I ate some candy. It isn't worth saving a little money if I don't need to.
