I really like them. My coworkers and family hate them, and mock me for liking them. But I get all of the unwanted Whoppers at Halloween, so it's worth their contempt.
Ever bit into a stale one that's turned chewy? Happened to me once and the thought of eating another Whopper makes me gag
Do yourself a favor and try Malteasers. You can often get them at World Market or the 'international' aisle at your grocery store.
This is it for me. I don't even like most candy after the first one or two. I'll have something and think 'oh that's good' but then not go back for more, but with peanut m&ms I can and will keep going until they're gone.
I've yet to discover the amount needed for me not be able to eat them all in one standing.
Those Fast Break candy bars, idk why. Used to be Reese's Cups but became meh for whatever reason.
Hershey's chocolates, including Reese's, have gotten noticeably worse over th last 10 years. Peanut butter cups have gotten waxy and less flavorful.
I feel like Reese's has an issue with their peanut butter. it tastes so sweet I can barely tell it's peanuts
I had a gourmet peanut butter cup from a boutique chocolatier, and it was like a flashback to my childhood, eating Reese's on Halloween. It's entirely my subjective experience, but it convinced me that they changed the recipe at some point in the last 25 years or so.
I'm with you. I think it was cheaper and more addictive to use more sugar, so they did that, if not other changes to the recipe
I'm partial to the nutrageous bars and the pretzel big cups, but yeah regular Reese's cups just aren't as good anymore. I think the base ones are just too oily anymore...
The Niagra brand peanut butter cups are my crack. Probably the most expensive ones in the supermarket, but I shouldn’t be eating too many anyway
Candy Corn. Some people insist they taste like wax, and I'm like, "What?!" I will chew those things all day long.
I didn’t even know these were a thing. Now I’m trying to decide if I should avoid them to avoid getting addicted, or if I should go buy a bag!
Sometimes, sometimes not. It depends on the day.
And sadly no, I come from a less enlightened country. Nobody here likes black licorice it seems.
Albanese gummy bears. If you bring Haribo to a party I'm going to punch you in the stomach.
“ I’m not going over there. Last time I brought gummy bears and he punched me in the stomach.”
Getting punched in the stomach after sugar-free Haribo gummy bears is my fetish.
This is funny to me. I just got told by my co-worker that Albanese is the best gummy candy and way better than everything else. I mentioned Haribo and he was not impressed. I tried the Albanese sour gummy worms and I have to admit were really good.
Hmmm maybe Girl Scout Thin Mints
I'm usually more of a savory guy. I'll fucking eat all the sharp cheddar cheese and salty crackers
Red vines, once I open a bag it's game over, it will 100% be gone that day. The size of the bag does not matter. The only ones that last longer are the multi-pound tubs.
Oh man, thanks for reminding me of an addiction I had a few years ago. Time to hit up amazon.
Edit: I did it, 4 diffent types on their way lol.
Literally anything from Aldi. Every single sweet they sell there is amazing, stupidly cheap, bafflingly well made.
Outside of that, Easter egg reese's pieces eggs. They have a way better ratio of peanut butter to candy shell than the little bits.
OMG, this. My SO was all about Reese's peanut butter eggs this Easter, but the far superior Aldi chocolate peanut butter bunny bite was my Easter vice.
Chocolate covered raisins. I will singlehandedly demolish half a pound if I don't watch it
Take 5. It is a gridded pretzel with peanut butter, caramel, whole peanuts, and chocolate. If you love salty sweet and you like texture this candy is everything.
that was gonna be my answer. if they ever come out with a bagged unwrapped mini bites version it's fuckin over for me
Not quite candy but I think it's close enough to count here: Co-op's own brand salt & vinegar kettle crisps. They're so vinegary it hurts. It's wonderful.
Oh man I love salt and vinegar chips so much but I cannot for the life of me find anything that tastes strong enough that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg in Japan.
I will give you a heads up that if you buy vinegar powder (acetic acid, basically) in an attempt to make your own, be very careful. I made salt & vinegar popcorn once, but the seasoning was too loose on the surface of the popcorn and if i breathed in at all while eating I got a hefty dose of burning lungs
Now n' Laters. They're actually all nows and none laters, I can down 4 boxes easy in one sitting.
They're also deliciously flavored double sided duct tape interms of how sticky that candy is (Not in reference to its flavor) ... But fuck my fillings and teeth imma eat like 10 xD
Those delicious banana ones have pulled a spacer off my tooth when I was in 5th grade. As an adult, they pulled off a crown.
Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs - specifically the ones for Easter. Those things are insanely easy for me to eat 2000 calories of.
Oh man I’m a sucker for anything Reese. I always swear when I see it on sale because of course I’m getting some.
I bought 2 of the large bags from Costco this season.
Not my wisest move as far as long term health is concerned but definitely a delicious move.
You're reminding me of when I was in my teens and discovered 1kg M&Ms bags on Amazon...I bought 3. I wonder how many years off my life that accounts for...
Oh man I was suckered in to a box of Reese granola bars about a year ago - like 20 for $5 or something thinking they would last a while… two days later… 🤦🏻♂️
I seriously can’t keep it in the house.
