For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

Joke's on you, I loved munching on those as a kid, they're basically savory candy!

Whoppers are good but the risk of getting a bad one is not worth it. Ech

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

This is so wrong! Love sucking on them Whoppers

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

Did you mean to imply fellatio?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month 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˜‚

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.

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] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I was gonna say the same. Always hated candy corn till someone had me try this.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (2 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 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

I had it the other week. Still great.
