This was mentioned earlier and just today I saw it on VH1 so I thought I would share with my fellow dieters!

thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming--WOW! WHAT A

I remember that one.  It was all the rage. 

Too bad about the unfortunate name, not to mention the association of rapid weight loss and AIDS.

I thought maybe I was the only one who thought about the sheer irony of that homonym.

 I too remember those ads! They went away real quick after the epidemic really got going. Of all the reasons for a business endeavor to fail, I'll bet this was never on the list of possible scenarios.....
The only thing I can do straight is shoot..

AYDS, in fact is a good name, because those little candies tasted as shitty and my AIDS medication does. :) They did taste better than my histo medicine does.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

I remember reading an article from the Onion's Our Dumb Century book... it was a parody of events that occured in 1980, and in the bottom was a blurb that said, "Diet Candy All the Rage: "In the 1980s, AYDS Will Be Synonomous With Health!"  Or something to that effect...
Your tastebuds can't repel flavor of this magnitude!
