AYDS Diet Chews

By Laura Moncur @ 5:00 pm — Filed under:

This old commercial shows the AYDS Diet Chews. I remember my mom tried them. They didn’t help her lose weight. I tried them, thinking that I might lose weight. They tasted like Tootsie Rolls.

It seems like every decade has their own strange diet remedies. They were just as bad in the 1980’s as they are now. In twenty years, the Trimspa commercials will seem just as strange, except for the unfortunate choice of names.

    I heard about them looking for diet candy.
    I meant low cal candy.

    I remember seeing them advertised in magazine, etc. when I was a little kid. Wasn’t it originally spelled AIDS? if I’m not mistaken they originally came out before news of the disease/syndrome did.
