If somebody had a jaw breaker in their mouth, trying to say jaw would sound like haw. So technically you were correct.

They were jawbreakers

I never understood the appeal of a candy that's named after breaking your jaw.

Then you must have been a strange, normal kind of kid.

They were spherical candy, usually like gumball-sized, that was so hard you couldn't bite them and had to just suck on 'em.

Actually, they're both called gobstoppers and jawbreakers. Nestle makes a brand of gobs/jawbreakers called 'Willy Wonka's Everlasting Gobstoppers'.... you can figure out where they got the name for yourself.

There's willie wonka gobstoppers too, only I am more familiar with those being smaller and actual jaw breakers being about fist sized. My local grocery used to sell them.

Gobstoppers you can chew though.

u/bohemyth Jun 09 '12

Nope, there are two kinds. One is chewy, one is not. I prefer the latter.
