life savers
Heroes in emergencies
Life Savers is a brand of ring-shaped hard candy, instantly recognizable by its circular shape with a hole in the center—resembling the flotation devices thrown to people in danger of drowning.
The candies come in various fruit flavors and mint varieties.
The brand name has become so familiar that life saver is used figuratively for anything or anyone that provides crucial help in a difficult moment: You brought coffee? You're a life saver!
