Halloween Candy - What's your fav?
noisyturtle:
Even if you don't go Trick or Treating, it's hard to avoid candy this time of year. Every office and break room has a bowl, and you know you're sneaking a few from the bags you bought for Halloween. What's your favorite? Caveat is they got to be available in Mini/Fun Size
For fruity, I love Sour Patch Kids and Swedish Fish, if they could put the SPK coating on SF it would go so crazy!
Chocolate, it's gotta be Twix. Snickers is close, and they no longer make Peanut Butter Twix(which is just a braindead move)

It's not so much that candy is all that bad, it's that it changes people, in the same way that alcohol changes a person. It drastically impacts one's expectations and perspective on life.
If Tp4 never got hooked on the damn Oreos, he wouldn't be so unhleathy.

A stupid thing that I carry from childhood is candy corn. It is an absurd confection and I only eat it around Halloween, but it brings back memories.

Anything chocolate-based is my jam: Hershey's, 3 Musketeers (love that nougat :p), M&Ms.
I've spent my entire life trying to like candy corn, but it never worked. I haven't eaten one in years. I gave up, and I'm better for it.
I've always been drawn more to Easter candy than Halloween, probably because everything is chocolate. And the Cadbury's Cream Eggs! Best candy ever made.
Sniping:
i've always enjoyed eating reeses cups. as an adult, I find it harder to enjoy since they seem so sweet every time I eat them now, but as a kid I feel like you don't have the same perception about sugary foods. i've had a lot of those healthier alternatives where they put in unsweetened nut butters and use dark chocolate (can't say that's much healthier honestly..), but I'll always go back and have a reeses cup once in a while.
