The sweet/sour non-chocolate kind is what I know as smarties.  We used to
hoard them after Halloween to use when we played "house", if someone was sick
and needed medecine, smarties looked enough like pills.  (Can you tell we were
a household with chronic illness?  Who else played "sick" when they played "house"?)
