Dada Bubble Gum(泡泡糖)
Almost all the kids like bubble gum. It's fun to eat bubble gum. Kids often get together to see who gets the biggest bubble. I still remember my sister once blew a big bubble and then it broke, covering her face with gum! I usually bought Dada Bubble Gum from the small stores near my home. It was cheap. I could get two for one yuan.
Sugar Figure(糖人)
You could always find people making sugar figures around the school in the old days. First, the maker would take a little maltose(麦芽糖) with a small spoon, using his hands to make figure, such as the Monkey King, the White Dragon, and so on. It was not expensive, only one yuan for one. If one child bought a sugar figure, many other children would come around him and admire it.
Baby Face IceCream
We like to call it snowman icecream better. It tasted very delicious. It was quite expensive. I remember the price was two yuan for each piece. That was not easy for me to buy one piece those days. Each time I got one, the happiness would last for a few days.
Malt Sugar Candy
Malt Sugar Candy is usually called Tangguar in northern China, and people serve it during the days just before the Spring Festival. It's delicious but cheap, and you could get five pieces for one yuan. My friends and I would get together to enjoy Tangguar. What a happy time!

Do sugary drinks cause overweight? While we know that sugary drinks have calories (卡路里), which are believed to cause overweight, many questions remain. For example, is soda any better? Do you need a sports drink after going to the gym? Here are the facts to some common misunderstandings.
Misunderstanding 1: Clear soda (无色汽水) is healthier than dark soda.
The truth: The dark color of teeth has something to do with the coloring (着色剂) in soda. Lisa R. Young, a professor of Nutrition at New York University said. But the big difference between clear and dark sodas is the caffeine content (咖啡因含量). Since a bottle of soda, whether Coca-Cola or Sprite (雪碧), has less caffeine than that in a cup of coffee, most soda drinkers probably don’t need to worry about what to choose.
Misunderstanding 2: If you need caffeine to cheer you up, you should choose an energy drink rather than coffee.
The truth: There are more sugar than caffeine in energy drinks such as Red Bull (红牛). Energy drinks may be easier to drink. But a cup of coffee has between 95 and 200 milligrams (毫克) of caffeine while Red Bull has about 80 mg per the same amount, according to US medical research group Mayo Clinic.
Misunderstanding 3: If you go to the gym, you need a sports drink.
The truth: It would be easy to think that you need a sports drink any time you sweat (出汗). But the truth is that the energy in your body won't be used up until you've done more than an hour of training. So you only need to drink some water after a 45-minute exercise on the running machine.
