We're more just friends.<BR/><BR/>I feel so foolish for having forgotten Big Hunks (corrine's mention of them refreshed my memory), though. I had knee surgery late last summer, and the pharmacy from which I purchased my Percocet sold Big Hunks. On a whim, I bought one - vaguely recalling eating them as a kid.<BR/><BR/>Well, let me just tell you. The next few weeks were a blur. The Big Hunk candy bar and I had so much catching up to do - just rolling back the years. Now, it's like, "Big Hunk, I don't know how to quit you!"<BR/><BR/>But you know what? If enjoying a little chewy nougat with peanuts is wrong, then I don't want to be right!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971849965703470955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-76400199152379883882008-02-08T09:49:00.000-07:002008-02-08T09:49:00.000-07:00I don't really like twizzlers, but if there are so...I don't really like twizzlers, but if there are some in the house, for some reason I just can't stop eating them.<BR/>I vote for three musketeers. And peanut butter cups.<BR/>I don't like Baby Ruth. <BR/>I'll eat a snickers if I'm desperate for chocolate, but they're not my first choice. I don't usually like candy with peanuts in it, because if there's a bad nut in it, it ruins the chocolate, and you have a nasty taste in your mouth for the rest of the day.<BR/>Almonds, however, are a totally different story. Love them!<BR/>I could eat an entire bag of Almond Joys.<BR/><BR/>Paul, are you serious? <BR/>Sour patch???? EEWWWW<BR/><BR/>What about bottle caps, pez and pop rocks?

That's too arbitrary.<BR/><BR/>I tend to not think of things like Life Savers and TicTac's as candy so I'd replace Life Savers with Mounds bars.

We sold them for a high school fund raiser back in the olden days. I was a growing lad with lots of hunger and no discipline, so I ate the box I was supposed to sell. Bad times. Not good times.<BR/><BR/>Now and Later. A candy that is stale when you buy it. What am I missing?<BR/><BR/>Caramel Apple Pops. Not many people know this, but there is a secret society of dental industry people. It's true - I read it once. It's headquarters is in Omaha. They fund a candy manufacturing plant that makes these devilish little confections. Just Sunday, I'm eating a caramel apple pop whilst enjoying the Super Bowl when suddenly, my tongue feels a big canyon where one of my molars is supposed to reside. I realized that my caramel apple pop had become a caramel apple crown pop. It was like a demon reached in and adorned my dental work with evil.<BR/><BR/>As for Ms. Babe's list, I would maybe add Dots and Jujubes. Oh, and those chewy Sweet Tarts. And Spree, up until the part where your tongue bleeds.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12971849965703470955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-49165744431613668002008-02-07T14:06:00.000-07:002008-02-07T14:06:00.000-07:00Cadbury Eggs are at the top of my list and just co...Cadbury Eggs are at the top of my list and just coming into the stores now.
