Pixie Sticks? There was also Lick M Aid in those paper envelopes. Sets off my salivary glands just thinking about them.

I found what I was talking about.
Flav-R-Straws.
You drank milk through them and they flavored the milk.

Well, I responded but it disappeared. The later version was called, I think, Pixie Sticks. The version I remember best was Lick M Aid which came in paper envelopes. Thinking about it still makes me salivate. :D

I had forgotten about those. Don't remember if I ever tried them.

The straws I'm talking about were completely different than Pixie Stix. Pixie Stix were powdered Kool Aid like stuff that you ate from a straw.
Pixie Stix were what the guy in Houston used to poison his kids on Halloween. He laced them with Cyanide.
The ones I'm referring to, you drank milk through them and they turned the milk to chocolate or strawberry flavored milk.

I just asked my wife and she said she doesn't remember what they used to be called, but they are still available as chocolate/strawberry straws.

They were called Flav-R-Straws. They stopped making them sometime in the 1960s.
The new ones are made differently.

Fizzies were a case of great advertising. We tasted them once. Nasty!

And most were in the military and/or drunk when they got them.
