    Default Candy

    Halloween may be over, but candy is a universal topic that doesn't need a holiday to be celebrated. So discuss your favorite candy.

    I love smarties! As a kid my mom used to sneak them in her purse during church. I couldn't make it through a sermon without chowing down on these babies. The first chance I get to have them I always take it. They taste so good. My mouth is watering just looking at this picture.

    Your turn.

    In Canada, they call them Rockets, to avoid the confusion w/ the chocolate candy Psycho & Mirage are referring to. In the US, they don't usually sell the chocolate ones.

    Appropriately titled. They feel like rockets going off in my mouth when I eat them. Don't think I ever gotten smarter from them.

    Doesn't look like you can use the lid as an offensive weapon anymore though. That was the best part,

    Milky Way or Twix! Anything with chocolate and caramel, really. And Mambas for the fruity selection.

    Twix are yum .... And I really like Take 5 candy bars.

    Mango candy is nom. I can't think of the actual name for them (it's a Mexican thing), but they're similar to Mambo chews.

    I used to like Duvalin too.

    I'll still smurf with the like dried mango suckers with chile on them.. nommmm. Spicy and sweet.

    I love Reese's Pieces & Peanut Butter cups. Also a big Kit-Kat & M&Ms fan.

    Non-chocolate, I like Starbursts. I'm elated they have the FlavorRed ones.

    I know I think they changed it because it was a choking hazard or something. Remember the joy you would get when the letter on the lid was the first letter of your name?
