Food Nostalgia: Space Food Sticks

Remember Space Food Sticks? They were all the rage back around ‘70 - ‘73 or so. I’ve no idea what they actually had in them and right now I’m feeling a little to lazy to bother looking it up.. maybe tomorrow.
Anyway, they came wrapped in a paper covered foil package and were about five or six inches long. I don’t recall that they were offered in any kind of flavors, although I do remember that they were on the sugary side.
The advertising for them was all about taking advantage of the fact that a LOT of kids (people my age) were seriously into the space program (even if they didn’t want to admit it) and wanted to be astronauts, pilots and so on.
Then almost as quickly as they appeared, they vanished. Right about the same time you stopped seeing ads for Tang I think.
