Hot Tamales Candy, 3 Alarm, 5 Ounce (Pack of 6)

Hot Tamales is a cinnamon candy manufactured by the Just Born in the USA. They are shaped like Mike and Ike candies and were introduced in 1950. Their name refers to their pungency, using the name of the tamale, which can be spicy. In 2011, Just Born released Hot Tamales "3 ALARM" containing three different colored candies mixed in each box. Orange = Hot, Pinkish-Red = Hotter and Dark Red = Hottest. The description reads: "HOT TAMALES 3 ALARM explodes with three intense spicy cinnamon flavors that deliver increasing levels of heat - hot, hotter and hottest." The 3 ALARM slogan used was: "Fire up your taste buds and get ready to scream for more!"
