I liked and still do: Carmel candies with the creme centers. And always loved Heath bars. Any Willy Wonka candy, and Fireballs. I have always loved Smarties, and still give those out at Halloween.

Smarties were always my favorite thing to get when trick or treating. I loved, and still love them. If I tricketed or treated at your house, you would not get tricketed, because you are a Krick-Frickin quality candy cartoonger!

Candies raise triglycerides.

Thus, I have no favorite candies at the moment.

Snickers.

I've seen the candy cigarettes at the store, but none of them were advertised as such. They were all labeled as candy sticks or something.

Ring Dings, from Drakes Cakes. I found these in WalMart in Ft. Lauderdale last year. I thought they were only distributed in the NYC area. Still love them. I've got one 2-pack left in the box in my pantry that I brought home with me earlier this month.

Ring Dings are far better than any other chocolate covered, cream filled, devils food chocolate snack cake. Better than Hostess, better than Little Debbie. What I can't believe is Drakes is now owned by Hostess - says so right on the box.

OMG! Doing a Google search for the image, Drakes will ship them! Wonder if they'd go well with some mail order pastrami too! Ymm!

sourpatch kids--just thinking of them makes my mouth water and pucker

Pop Rocks

Hershey's Milk Chocolate, no nuts (now I prefer Godiva or Ghirardelli dark chocolate)

Bazooka gum

Blow Pops

Nerds.
Lemonheads.
Smarties.

I love candy. Anytime I visit a client and they have candy, I pocket some. The dentist offices have sugar free lollipops that are awesome.

I love, love, love chocolate bars. My dad packed my lunch for me when I was in school, and he always made sure I had a candy bar. He loved chocolate and swore that eating a chocolate bar kept his cholesterol down.

Most any chocolate bar is high on my list. Also caramel squares and caramel rounds with cream inside and those peppermint nougats you see at Christmas.

This season of the year, I buy a bag of candy corn and eat it over several days. Then I don't want any more or anything like it for a year.

You know how we've joked on occasion that we're the same person? Well, we have similar taste in candy as well. I've been avoiding the candy aisle like the plague to keep myself from buying a bag of candy corn. Love, love, love peppermint nougats.

I'm the keeper of the chocolate stash at work. I've gotten my co-workers hooked on the Hershey's nuggets with almonds and toffee pieces.

We are on our third bag of candy corn.

I don't understand labeling the "Fun Size'.
I think of them better to be called 'Frustration Size'!
All that work to get them open, only for 1/2 a bite.

They are also known as (name of candy bar here) Lite as they are lower fat and calories than your regular sized candy bars.

Who the hell coined the term, "Fun Size?" Makes no sense. "Oooooooooooooh! A small type of the candy bar! Let's play football with it! Or shove it in something!"

Fun? No.

More convenient? Perhaps.

As a kid I thought a box of oozing chocolate covered cherries was about the best thing EVER! Then I grew into Fannie Mae Turtles. Now that I'm all growed up (and OUT) I can take or leave candy. Weird.

Skittles!!!


Chocolate is also acceptable......

An Oh Henry! bar or 3 Muskateers.

I love Cadbury's Easter Creme Eggs (actually, I love most British chocolate as it is far superior to most North American chocolate) and when I was living over in Britain back in 2008 I discovered a chocolate bar that I had never seen before - Cadbury's Twisted which is an Easter Creme Egg in chocolate bar form (the top is twisted, hence the name). I ate those, Cadbury's Double Decker, and Cadbury's Fudge all the freakin' time.

I have always been able to get Double Deckers and Fudge over here but Twisted simply wasn't available. Well imagine my surprise when I saw it in a store today! I immediately snatched up a few of them only to see them in another store later this afternoon which means that they are now widely available here! I am in chocolate heaven especially as these will be available year round as opposed to the Easter Creme Eggs which are only available at Easter and for a while afterwards.
