## The story

Byte-Size Drops showed up right when families were getting their first home computers. The tin slid into a paper sleeve just like a real disk, and each candy was a tiny square with a pixel pattern pressed on top. Kids hid them in the computer lab disk box, and at least one teacher tried to load one into a drive.

## Fun fact

The wrapper claimed each tin held 64 kilobytes of flavor, which nobody understood and everybody repeated.
