For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

Whoppers are 95% great. It's that gross 5% that really makes me savor the rest.

Yea, the periodic weird one really makes it an exciting gamble.

How about circus peanuts?

The first bite of circus peanuts tastes to me like an alien artificial intelligence had to create a sugary treat and only had petroleum by-products to make it with.

The second bite tastes like accepting your fate.

If you're reading this and have never tried this, get some, it's a religious experience. You might find god. God might be a very sick cat.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Yep, I'm a big fan. It's definitely an acquired taste, though.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Some of that is amazing.

If you ever see a Pantteri Mix bag, pick one up.

Some or most salty licorice is pretty shit tho imo

This is so wrong! Love sucking on them Whoppers

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Did you mean to imply fellatio?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Frick no!

But for real though, I suck on the whoppers and let the malt center dissolve. Only downside is sometimes it makes the roof of your mouth rawπŸ˜‚

Jell-O cubes. Unpackaged.

What you do is you let them dissolve in your mouth, do that and they turn into at least an A tier candy trust

Lol, you're something else, candy corn?? That stuff is vile.

The worst I can say about dots is they're just sugar, albeit glued to paper.

Will you come organize my candy bowl this year? πŸ˜†

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

In the US, dots are hard gumdrops.

Also, if your candy corn sucks, it's because it's not Brach's.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

In the US dots can also refer to candy buttons as well as the gross gumdrops

Thin chocolate coating on the outside, crunchy malted milk on the inside that will sort of melt in your mouth if you can resist chewing it. They are delicious and used to always come in a paper carton.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

They're like Maltesers
