    Drum roll....the dentist's favorite for kids. The only way to eat these was to freeze them, then smash them into pieces. I do admit to having enjoyed the banana and chocolate bars. Yup available on Amazon!!

    Banana was good stuff. Wouldn't eat it today.

    Cola Flavored Gummy Bottles are very good, I think they are probably disliked by most though.

    Cola Flavored reminds me of Bottle Caps - I loved those.

    This is for you @thisistheshow - Jim Rice was actually a pretty good player.

    Well we are finding some serious common ground on the candy front πŸ‘πŸ‘

    Those stale chocolate things with the white sprinkles were terrible.

    While chocolate too unless it was covering pretzels.

    White Chocolate Peppermint or Candy Cane is legit

    Damn man, we should hang out and eat candy sometime. White chocolate peppermint is awesmoe.

    Reminds me, too, of Zero bars, the only candy bar I remember with white chocolate. I haven't had one of those for decades, but I loved them back in the day.

    Yea I’d actually like very much to sit down with you and talk about a bunch of different topics over a 30 pack of beer, you can have your cigs and I will have my dip and we can split up the candy. πŸ‘

    Hard to find one everybody hates, so may require a wacky pack candy.

    those chocolate things with cherry filling or some red elmo in them.

  • CoinstartledCoinstartled Posts: 10,135 ✭✭✭✭✭

    oh yeah. The boxes of chocolates can be a real crapshoot.

    The orange filling is the lowest rung.

    Fortunately that is the bailiwick of the old spinster ladies. Here we are safe.

    Circus peanuts are trash, peeps are trash but I think my highest level of hatred goes to Bit-O-Honey. Not even sure if they still make them. If I got those as a kid for Halloween, I most likely came back to that house in the middle of the night and set their lawn on fire.

    Not candy but does anything beat Planter's dry roasted peanuts?

    Not Candy but I’m going through a serious Cracker Jack mixed with Beer Nuts phase right now

    A pretty short but solid write up here. Although I hate the regular tootsie rolls with a passion, I do like the vanilla flavored ones, for some reason.

    Bit O Honey always made it to the trash bin first. Anything yellow was second and anything green, third.

    Next was the one mealy apple and the dreck little box of raisins.

    Very good as long as long as fresh. Stale, you are better off with junior mints.
