Do they still make these?

I loved these!

They were a large egg shaped jawbreaker. You had to suck them because they were to hard to bite and break. The inside was a sweet tart center. So good!

I checked on these. They no longer make them.

They were almost exactly like the Everlasting Gobstopper. What I hated the most was the disgusting white outer shell!!!

I LOVED these! I liked them better than Gobstoppers because they had a better ratio of inside sweet-tart type stuff to tooth-breaking outer shell.

I believe they also went by "The Choke-a-nator".

they were called wonka dinoSOUR eggs, different from the ones they make today

My sister and I were addicted to these things. So good!

I loved these things. They were awesome. I wished they still made them. I would swap my brothers for these.

I loved these!! oh my how I miss the 80s...I used to get them at liquor stores or in the vending machines " )

i ate boxes of these things when i was a kid.. i actually still have a little box of these but i ate the candy.

Oh how I wish wonka still made these. Dinasour eggs were the best candy ever made. How can we contact wonka to see if they would consider making them again for those of us who are addicted and would love for our children to enjoy the experience of a dinasour egg!

I distinctly remember these would have a crack after sucking on them a while. Love these!

Can anyone confirm whether or not these are similar? www.candywarehouse.com/giantsours.html

Me and my best friend would buy them by the case and eat them on the way to work. We were grown ups by then but they were the BEST!!

Glad to see others still yearn for this treat, not only were these good but they also bring back so many memories. The 80's were a great place to be, its hard to be stuck in a world such as this with memories of how things used to be!

I ordered a box (1 lb) on line from one of the candy stores. I was so excited when they arrived, but then soooo disapointed when they turned out to be just gobstoppers in the shape of an egg. Dont think they make them anymore:(

any idea where i can find these?

I loved these!! I used to buy them at the corner store every morning before school. They used to come 2 in a pack in plastic wrap and they were 10 cents a pack. I really wish Wonka would bring them back!

wow its awsome hearing all these stories on here! I feel the same way!!! I was craving tart and tiny's and wondered if they still made them, then the eggs popped in my head!! does anyone remember the name of them real good taffys they came in a long bar in cherry and grape? whatever happend to blueberry hubba bubba?

Jenny, the candy you remember was called Laffy Taffy. :)

these were the best! why don't they make these anymore?

where can i get dino sour eggs? i told my kids about them and they would love some...please help..

DINOSAUR EGGS WERE MY FAVORITE CANDY GROWING UP AND I WISH MY SON COULD EXPERIENCE THESE..WHERE IN THE WORLD CAN YOU GET THEM ?

Loved them. Used to get them at the local skating rink when I was a kid. Wished they still made them. "give me some dinosaur eggs bag of munchos and a suicide Mr. McCoy"

every day on the walk from southside elementry school to my home, i would stop by the Rexal drugs and get two packages, and cross my fingers for red and blue, ive been looking for these for years, i believe they are gone forever

Noooooo, I'm so sad they don't make them anymore! In the early nineties when I was in kindergarten I would stop by the corner store with my mom some days and I'd always get DINOSOURS and X-MEN GUM! Damn, those were the days.

Haven't seen these in years, but man do I remember eating about 100 boxes of them in the 80s...wish I still had a box

OK..i have acted as a spokesperson and contacted Nestle/Wonka to get these back as I too CRAVE them! Watch this space...

Hi Stu, have you heard anything back from Nestle/Wonka?

I too enjoyed these at my local skating rink when I was a kid. If we could just bring back the 80's what a grand place this world would be..

I think the long bar of cherry and grape taffy Jenny asked about is "Tangy Taffy", not "Laffy Taffy" Tangy is a flat rectangle, more tart than sweet, while laffy is sweeter, long and thin, like a rope, or bite sized individually wrapped chunks...

I also have contacted Nestle/Wonka. I am waiting for a response. Growing up playing little league after the games I would buy out the concession stand of the Dinosaur Eggs. My dentist loved me. Anybody find anything out if they make them still?

Went to a boy scout summer camp one year and bought DinoSour eggs every day at the snack stand and the last day of the camp I bought a whole box. I loved them!

For the last couple of years Wonka/Nestle has released "Egg Breakers" at Easter time. I bought 24 packages today. They are small-sized, but the same thing--eggs that change flavor. The flavors are grape, cherry, lime, lemon, and blueberry. Very good. I wanted to buy enough to have them year round.

I'm working with a client right now that has a dinosaur exhibit coming. Reaching out to Wonka/Nestle to see if they'd do limited edition cross-promotion with Dinosour eggs. You'd think with all the Gen X parents on here begging for them, we might have some luck.

faaarrr sitting in class doing my assignment searching up sweets from the 80s so far this one looks the best .

It's June 18th 2011 and I'm STILL craving these!! Was wondering if Wonka still made these, so looked them up and found this site ... am GUTTED they don't! I grew up in Hong Kong and we even had them there! These were the ABSOLUTE BEST I ever had! If so many people loved them, why on EARTH stop making them? BRING THEM BACK!!! Please! :-)

I had contacted Wonka by submitting a comment or an e-mail which they informed me they no longer have the recipe or make the Dinosour Eggs. They need to research around the archives for the recipe. They were the best!! But to me I wonder if Gobstoppers aren't very similar, just smaller.

Used to get these on my annual trip to 6flags in Texas. All time fave. They actually changed multiple flavors unlike gobstoppers.

they would be considered a choking hazard now, the size and shape wouldn't pass safety standards now a days, it's amazing we all lived through childhood.

OMG I loved these things! The green ones were the best. They were amazing. They finally made (for a short time) watermelons, like the eggs but all watermelon. The middle was THE best.

LOVED Dinosour eggs, wish they still made'em. Take me back to being a kid in the 80's!

werethese the candies that made your poop change colors if not does anyone remember what candy did that i remember them from when i was a kid and i cant find them i would like to fond them again and have my daughter try them

Oh, how I miss these!! They were way better than gobstoppers. I think they quit making the wrong one.

I loved these! Gobstoppers aren't even close. I wonder if people had trouble eating these because of their size. If so, maybe they could bring them back in a smaller size? I didn't mind the bigger size.

YEAH, these were definitely the BEST candy! RIP DinaSOUR Eggs...you are very MISSED!!

Today, these crossed my mind for the first time since 1981. A classmate would buy a whole box of these and sell them at our middle school. Seems that they cost him $.10 each and he'd sell them for $.25. Not a bad profit margin!

I've got a mouth full of black fillings thanks to these bad boys!!! Would I change it??? Err nope haha

They were called DinaSOUR Eggs

I've been thinking about dinosaur eggs, I absolutely LOVED them as well. I remember they would change colors....Orange to red to yellow or blue, then you reached the sweet tart in the middle. I too wish I could find these again.

I miss DinaSour Eggs (TY so much for at least having an image of the box) but I also miss Orange Bubblicious & Hubba Bubba Raspberry Gum. They have been having some remakes but not those flavors by those companies. The sugar they use now would probably mess it up. In the early 80s I spent all my allowance on candy. :)

Dinasour eggs were my favorite, all wonka Cady has changed for the worse, everlasting gobstoppers used to be larger and had a red strawberry like center, bottle caps were larger as well ... I miss the 80 s to much

I was saddened to read that these are no longer available, I used to love getting these from the good humor guy at the pool

I absolutely loved and still would love Dina-Sour Eggs even at a lot older age! I used to get Dina-Sours by the boxes when I used to visit my dad. Then, I would take them home to my mom's & sell them to my friends! Bring back Dina-Sour Eggs!!!

I wish they still made these nothin ever was close to these the gobstoppers weren't the same to me I would buy these by the case now! Please bring these back!

I remember that they made a few different versions if these. The first I recall was a little bigger than a large gumball and came two in a plastic wrapper. I used to buy those for either 25 cents or 50 cents. The second I recall were the minis. Those were sold in a small bag and usually had around 15 per bag. The minis would be no more of a choking hazard than most candies sold today. I'd settle for those if Wonka would sell them.

Somebody bring them back. Best candy ever.Gobstoppers suck. I want a dino egg!!!

Of everything I remember about my childhood, this was in top 5!!! By far the best candy EVER!!! Please bring these back for our kids sake. So much of life they miss out on cause the "new" generation doesnt appreciate the good ol' days.

My absolute favorite candy ever!!!!! Please bring them back!!!

please bring these back..im 48 now. And how i wish i would taste these again, they have been in fact the best candy ever made. :(

Still waiting for updates ! Im 41 and used to get these all the time.

44 now and for whatever reason thought of these today. I ate so many of them I could actually pick the blue ones (my favorite) out just by smelling the box. Wasn't perfect but 85-90% was good enough

I loved these as a kid! I'm 42 now but I remember the taste of these like it was yesterday. They came 2 in a plastic pack for 10 cents at my local candy store. I used to go through these things like water. How I miss those days. I'd give anything to go back to those simpler times. There's nothing better than growing up as a kid in the 80s.

Before school se would go to the córner liquor store to pick up these delicious eggs.

I'm 20 and heard so many stories about how good these were, and I'd love to try one for the first time!

Missy, you want to find the candy that's gonna make your daughter's poop change color???
