Jujubes. The real ones, not the poor gummy substitutes they sell now-adays. The ones that could rip out fillings.
Marathon Bars. Just caramel and chocolate, but excellent. No more chocolate than other bars, but the linked "O" shapes made it seem bigger. Not technically a "nostalgic" candy, since I was in high school when they came out.
I never liked the wax bottles. Or Wax Lips. Anything involving wax is not really a candy. It's a candle. Having the same first four letters doesn't count, in my book.
Necco wafers taste like cardboard. No go.
Good 'n Fruities seem to have disappeared. I don't like licorice, so I never had Good 'n Plenties.
Rock candy, candy buttons, those Hickory Farms hard strawberry candies with the gel inside that were in wrappers that looked like strawberries, Red Hots, jawbreakers, those huge lollypops that are a big swirl of fruity candy goodness, Jelly Babies (which are more a part of my young-adulthood too, but I had to get them at SciFi conventions and I do miss them).
