Other than that all candy is good candy - and no I don't have a sweet tooth I swear.

Worst: Peeps ugh I LOATHE those! I'm also not a fan of licorice anything and the nasty chocolates (cheap ones found in grocery stores). There are others, but I actually like most candies.
Absolute Favorite: Cadbury Mini Eggs, Cadbury Milk Chocolate, and Crunchies (which aren't available here in the US) they are Honeycomb with (guess what? ) Cadbury Chocolate I love that stuff! I tell my co-workers my payment for helping them is cadbury chocolate either the Dairy Milk Bars or the mini eggs. The Mini eggs are available around Easter, but they also have similar items around Christmas time. I'm too cheap to buy them full price, so I patiently wait until after the holiday and buy as much as I can justify afterwards.
I like jolly ranchers, and Jelly Belly Jelly Beans (but only when coerced), love the sour candies.
I also love seeing how different people like different candies.
My first job was in a candy store where we made chocolates (so much fun), and I was able to try a lot of different candies. Was a great job and way better candy than the crap candy stores they have in the mall now...we roasted nuts, made chocolate, wrapped gifts, was so much fun!!!
Haha peanut butter kisses? Yes those are so gross!momhappy|1413216001|3766458 said:As a kid, the worst was those candies wrapped in orange & black wrappers that you'd get at Halloween. Im not even sure what they were called (or even if they had a name ), but for some reason I think that they were sort of peanut butter flavored?
It's funny to read all of the responses. Not that it's candy, but at the top of my "worst" list would be gum (of any brand or flavor)

Lindt chili chocolate looove. So does my 2 year old.iLander|1413381126|3767355 said:Anything made by Hersheys. Their accountants have ruined all of their candy over the years, now it's all just gross, waxy and flavorless.
It is NOT WORTH THE CALORIES to eat crappy candy. Spring for the good stuff, or skip it, I say.
These are $5 per bar, and worth it.
I'd be tempted to try it, but I still don't like fruit with my candy hehe. I think its a texture thing, because dried fruit has a weird texture to me? Nuts/coconut is fine though =\VRBeauty|1413399118|3767493 said:

I totally agree!
If I'm going to eat something not-so-healthy it better be worth the cellulite and arterie-clogging heart attack plaque deposits.
So much pleasure-food today is made with cheap shitty ingredients ... especially those beautiful pastries from so-called bakeries.
IMO, this is more true for cheesecake than anything else.
My cheesecake is to DIE for, but I can't find the recipe in my messy house.
One bite of the tip of the first piece, and you collapse into a 45-minute orgasm.
