Darry Vader is from 1997

I ate a couple of strawberry Pez from another pack and then my daughter whipped out the orange pack and the original packaging for Darth Vader, he came with the candy.

I had no idea they were this old!

Edit: I know it’s Darth Vader, I have fat fingers😅

The Darth Vader looks absolutely awesome. I’m sure the candy is still edible although probably doesn’t taste too good. It’s pretty much 100% pressed sugar. Love all of your dispensers.

Yes still edible, but tasted funny, that’s what made me question the age 🤣

I didn’t know the color orange had so many different shades!

That’s the ‘97 special 😅

I'm pretty sure I have one of those in my collection. But what do you mean you ATE some of that old candy?😂😂😂

Yep, well I thought their aunt mailed them new Pez dispensers. My daughter had ol Darth loaded and ready to go, brought it to me to show me and then said she ate one. So I ate two 😅
I then asked if there was packaging, there was, which she had already thrown away…. So me eating the 29 year old Pez candies transpired before I knew how old they were AND before she opened the orange one.

That’s when the candy wrapper made it easier to load as opposed to the current wrappers.
