Who are Mike and Ike? Apparently they are just fictitious characters created by the ‘Just Born’ company. Nothing fictional about this great taste though. Whoever invented them…. We salute you. We can see why these are America’s best selling non chocolate candies in cinemas across the nation. When it comes to delivering on flavour, I can confirm that the Apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree. AND, with any luck, these shouldn’t be falling far from your mouth. Exploding sour apple flavour, all wrapped up in these delicious candies.
