Favorite choice of candy

[MeanDean]

I wouldn't say they're my favorite but I discovered something similar to these at Dollar General. The ones I get are individually wrapped and they have a bit higher caramel to nougat ratio.

They remind me of a "candy bar" from my youth called Snirkles.

Whatchamacallit is my favorite candy bar.

Just bought a big of little chick-o-sticks. Reminds me of buying those for 10 cents in the 80s.

100 Grand ice cream bars are next level.

Ive seen them but dont want to try them and add an addiction. Im really good about not eating sweets but when I indulge it's the 100 Grand. What a brilliant but simple idea with the 100 Grand itself. Its basically a combination of a Twix and Nestle Crunch. Both damn good in their own right. You have the chocolate, caramel, rice, and the crunchy shortcake or whatever it is. Now we are adding ice cream to such an already addictive cocktail? Yeah I dont need to try them.

Live a little. I don't eat sweets often, when I do it's those or snickers ice cream bars. But I get it. I've overindulged a few times on them after a gummy or Climbing Kites.

Hi, I'm Candy - Highlander

Had this scene pop into my head when I read the thread title..

Zero bars and horehound candies.

This has been an amazing thread to read. I understand why so many things exist that I’d never eat in a million years.

Can’t believe no one has said Kit Kat. That’s mine and I’m sticking to it. Snickers as a good runner-up. 100 Grand is certainly underrated. Twin Bing makes me want to vomit, and I like cherry flavored stuff generally.

What's kind of incredible is how so many things have stood the test of time.

Like in Casey's, how does Big League Chew still exist? That flavor lasted what, 2 minutes, and then the gum wasn't even very chewy?

I've always just thought of Kit-Kat and Twix as similar to a Pepsi/Coke thing. Almost the same thing with some fairly subtle differences.

But I've been told, no, I'm way off.

Yeah, they both have the wafer/cookie thing but they’re quite a bit different. FWIW I like both!

I'm a big candy fan but have never had a cherry mash or twin bing. Snickers, Twix, skittles, Starburst. We always have m&ms at our house. Nerd clusters and hi-chew are also well stocked for us. I have also had suckers that instead of being tootsie pops have a frootie in the middle.

@Pope its not really candy but there are mini rice cakes called drizzleicious that might as well be that are pretty low calorie.

As a kid whose favorite candies included black licorice the hate is unfathomable.
