Nothing says satisfying like the eye-watering, mouth-burning sensation of too many Hot Tamales. Little cinnamon-y bites of chewy goodness, Hot Tamales are the perfect sweet snack. They don't melt in your mouth, have no bits to fall off and make crumbs, and last forever (we probably don’t need to delve too deeply into why that is).First produced way back in 1950, their longevity is a testament to just how awesome they are. I can think of very few things that are still around more than 60 years later, so way to go, Hot Tamales!
Not only are they fat free, they have only seven calories each, so you can get quite a few in one snacking session. If you're a fan of the 100 calorie packs, just know you can have 14 of the candies, which is plenty to give you that nice burning sensation.
The only problem I see with Hot Tamales is how addicting they are. If we buy a big box of them at the store, between the kids and us it usually lasts no longer than one day. Lots of hopping, complaining and eye watering ensue when the kids grab hold of the box, but we all enjoy our Hot Tamales immensely.
