    When I heard it on Howard Stern I thought it was a joke, too funny. Tasteless, but hilarious.

      You have to remember that Ayds had been around for a long time before AIDS was discovered so that ad was just an ad back then. I remember my mom using those back in the day.
      They certainly had to rethink their whole marketing strategy in the mid 80's though, that's for sure.

          My mom used to take them, too. They actually tasted pretty good-like chewy chocolates {I used to sneak them from her }.

          I lost 70 pounds on WW in 2003 and have gained back 20. Atkins is the best way I know to lose and more importantly, maintain that loss!
