For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

Airheads.

They taste like I imagine flavored window caulking would.

Bouillon Cubes

How about those stale tar-like hard candies.

[-] bizarroland@fedia.io 15 points 4 hours ago

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.

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

Just Almond Joys and Mounds.

This is so wrong! Love sucking on them Whoppers

[-] Cort@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Did you mean to imply fellatio?

[-] MelonYellow@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

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˜‚

[-] warbond@lemmy.world 25 points 5 hours ago

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

[-] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

Are you taking about those weird chewy ones? Because those are my favorites.

[-] thatsnothowyoudoit@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 minutes ago

I found my people here.

[-] blueday@lemmy.world 14 points 5 hours ago

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

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Chunky bars. Kids like raisins in their chocolate, right?

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˜†

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

In the US, dots are hard gumdrops.

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

[-] Cort@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

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

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I like the gross gumdrops, but I don't care for the acid blotters.

[-] Cort@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Lol, not a fan of either but at least you get some fiber when the paper sticks to the candies

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

I was going to agree, but I haven't had Brach's candy corn in a while, every so often those large companies change the formula to make things cheaper* so it's hard to be sure.

*latest fad

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

I had it the other week. Still great.

[-] encrust9870@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

You really need to try mixing the candy corn with salted peanuts. πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘„πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘Œ

Black licorice
