Ahem, Sins,

"Bit o honey goes a long, long way.
It's the chewy candy that you don't have to chew
Just melt it in your mouth 'til the nuts pop through!"

And Mark Clark, your recollection is very close to mine:

"You spell it -
B-O! N-O! M-O! Bonomo! Oh-Oh-Oh, Bonomo's! Turkish Taffy!!! Caaaan-dy."

Little Hawk, we used to drive over the Peace Bridge several times a year, and always came back with MacIntosh Toffee, which was not available in the states. Had a visit to the Falls last year and last stop before returning home was for MacIntosh Toffee! Just for ol' times' sake!!
