iyo what is the best candy

omg yes pink runts! i had forgotten about those--sort of an unusual flavor.

I can't really handle sweets :-\

Yeah, they were meant to be peach iirc

I'm a junkfood junkie, raunchy flavored chips and beef jerky in a bag and stuff...

that pineapple lumps commercial is awesome btw

i too prefer savory treats to sweet ones

want the candy that looks like fried egg

best candy is watermelon jolly rancher or maybe the sour gummy peach rings

If those are fried Cadbury eggs, then I am deeply awed and deeply jealous of whoever shot that photo.

i wish i could go there

wish harder

gummy porpoises AW MAN

i think i see a GUMMY CRAB?

also those eyeball jawbreakers

lol "wish harder"

i have eaten those gummy hamburgers; can't really recommend

*sigh*

i had a cadbury creme egg a few months ago and i really thought it was gross, not an expected reaction. chocolate was crappy and the stuff inside was way way too sweet, hurt my teeth.

yeah the cadbury creme egg thread is a foreign land to me

you guys

I had forgotten about those caramel creams though!! they are really good. how do they keep the cream so soft, I wonder.

I bought myself a box of Cadbury eggs this Eastertime because it was the first time since time immemorial that I didn't get any as a gift. the trick is to scoop out the filling with the very tip of your tongue to maximize the cartoonish, technicolor sweetness in each bite. if you can't handle the intensity of the yolk, then you shouldn't even be occupying this planet afaic.

xxpost yeah, I wish they sold large volumes of that white Goetze cream by the jar or tube. it reminds me of a dryer, crumblier version of certain cake frostings, but its pillowy softness is a mystery for the ages, aye.

fuckin reeses cups

that's a good answer

the best candy is werthers originals

seriously

i could eat reeses cups...forever. i mean, if i ever had the chance to keep eating them one after another...i might just eat them until i die. or explode. they are like crack to me.

non-chocolate division though i gotta give a shout-out to the haribo family

and there you have it.

jelly belly jelly beans, duh.

wheeee! candy gifs!

i used to eat a lot of candy until i was about 27, and then my body decided that candy made me sick and fat. so i don't eat candy anymore (sugar was a really hard habit to break - i think it took 4 or 5 years). but i can still love it from afar. i still think the science of finding perfect combos of texture + flavour is what makes candy awesome.
(i too think chocolate candy is a totally dif category)

- cherry nibs - the best - http://www.hersheycanada.com/en/products/details/twizzlers/images/full_nibs.jpg
- anything sour gummy
- those 'healthy' berry-juice gummies
- skittles!
- runts or other small candies with hard exterior, powdery interior
- twizzlers, cherry or licorice
- starburst/mambo

i have the strongest urge to just walk down to the store and buy like $50 worth of candy

all that stopping me is that i dont have $50

or a shirt on

I am a ~sucker~ for:

my tastes in candy have expanded and changed as i have gotten older.

my taste in hersheys miniatures has been widely disseminated across ilx.
watermelon and green apple jolly ranchers are a treat. i have a new taste for skittles of all types. still love runts and spree. twizzlers i think i have always been into; prefer regular black licorice and strawberry to the pull-and-peel variety, but i like all of them. starburst are good, especially the pink ones. sometimes i eat reg or peanut m&ms. i no longer like reese's products. thank you.
