I definitely had these growing up in the 90s. Though not as popular, candy stores still sell them today.

I remember eating them in the early 2000s and then them vanishing from nearly ever store. I still see them in candy shops, but rarely and usually tucked away on the bottom shelf. I also remember those thick, bubble gum, cigars.

I had them in the 90s, but only during Sinterklaas in the Netherlands. I got them from my parents. They were extremily against smoking ironically. There's still children champagne sold. Some Belgian comedians came up with the idea to promote kidicoke. See here the video with English subs.
