This is it for me. I don't even like most candy after the first one or two. I'll have something and think 'oh that's good' but then not go back for more, but with peanut m&ms I can and will keep going until they're gone.
I had a gourmet peanut butter cup from a boutique chocolatier, and it was like a flashback to my childhood, eating Reese's on Halloween. It's entirely my subjective experience, but it convinced me that they changed the recipe at some point in the last 25 years or so.
I'm partial to the nutrageous bars and the pretzel big cups, but yeah regular Reese's cups just aren't as good anymore. I think the base ones are just too oily anymore...
This is funny to me. I just got told by my co-worker that Albanese is the best gummy candy and way better than everything else. I mentioned Haribo and he was not impressed. I tried the Albanese sour gummy worms and I have to admit were really good.
Red vines, once I open a bag it's game over, it will 100% be gone that day. The size of the bag does not matter. The only ones that last longer are the multi-pound tubs.
I rotate back and forth. Sometimes I'm all about Red Vines then a few months later it will be Twizzlers. Right now, I'm on a Twizzlers kick. But who knows next week I could find myself craving Red Vines again. And I have no idea why.
OMG, this. My SO was all about Reese's peanut butter eggs this Easter, but the far superior Aldi chocolate peanut butter bunny bite was my Easter vice.
Take 5. It is a gridded pretzel with peanut butter, caramel, whole peanuts, and chocolate. If you love salty sweet and you like texture this candy is everything.
You're reminding me of when I was in my teens and discovered 1kg M&Ms bags on Amazon...I bought 3. I wonder how many years off my life that accounts for...
Oh man I was suckered in to a box of Reese granola bars about a year ago - like 20 for $5 or something thinking they would last a while… two days later… 🤦🏻♂️
They're also deliciously flavored double sided duct tape interms of how sticky that candy is (Not in reference to its flavor) ... But fuck my fillings and teeth imma eat like 10 xD
Not quite candy but I think it's close enough to count here: Co-op's own brand salt & vinegar kettle crisps. They're so vinegary it hurts. It's wonderful.
Oh man I love salt and vinegar chips so much but I cannot for the life of me find anything that tastes strong enough that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg in Japan.
I will give you a heads up that if you buy vinegar powder (acetic acid, basically) in an attempt to make your own, be very careful. I made salt & vinegar popcorn once, but the seasoning was too loose on the surface of the popcorn and if i breathed in at all while eating I got a hefty dose of burning lungs
Costco used to (still does?) sell these tubs of chocolate covered caramel macadamia nut clusters. Literally food of the diabetic gods. I had to stop buying them because they were expensive AF and disappeared way too quickly.
Hell yeah fam. I was gonna say that I never did crack and would honestly not know since I've done other drugs and I wouldn't bother comparing unless it's compared to the concept of sugar.
But Reese's is the shit and Reese's Pieces is my shit. I love eating it. You can put it in the fridge and it is fire. I even still like that mc chris song about Reese's Pieces and he has serious mental problems now.
Mango ginger chews, these Polish pineapple ginger candies which are 1.39 a bag despite inflation, and dark chocolate covered dried mango. Absolutely wonderful.
This. Omgggg Mexican grocery stores have some magnificent candy! The gummy worms especially!
This candy is so much more elegantly flavored than the usual stuff and crazy packed with flavor! It also lasts a good while and maximizes flavor surface area!
Holy hell. YES. Just two for dessert. Then one as a snack. a couple before I brush my teeth. Three while I'm working. Why is the tub empty and my ass so huge?
Salmiakki. Not the kind of similar salted liqourice, but actual proper salmiakki. Haven’t had a variation of that so far that wasn’t amazing and addictive
Personally I think it's mostly nostalgia for me at this point. I liked them as a kid because we didn't get candy too often, and I could make these last a long time. I'd usually split each disc int 4 peices and just suck on each quarter until it was gone before eating the next one.
When I'd spend a summer week at my Grandma's in the early '60s, my cousin would take me to Luke's Store, where a dollar would buy a bag full of candies. Always included was a sleeve of Necco wafers.
I liked the flavors and would try to eat them slowly, but usually ended up crunching through them.
In 2018 when the Necco company went bankrupt, I was traveling a bit for work and would buy bags full wherever I found them. It was a relief when the Spangler company bought the brand and resumed production.
I also like them. Their flavors are very unique compared to other candies, and the texture is too. It's satisfying to crunch them, and the packaging+colors looks nice.
The formula change was before my time. I crunch every candy (except like, jawbreakers) so yeah crunch for these too. I do one at a time usually I think.
It's been years, but I got mine from Amazon, when I still shopped there. I hate to boost their bottom line, there are bulk candy sites out there that are probably much more deserving of your money.
Dunno if it's candy or a cookie.... But those new chocolate filled ice cream cones from trader Joe's. Not the ice cream ones, the chocolate filled cones. Omg, I ate 2 boxes when they first became available
I really like the Harry & David's chocolate covered cherries. Also malt balls, Good n Plentys, Ferrero Rocher, popcorn and peach jelly bellies, and anything with a dark chocolate ganache.
Gumballs. I can't buy them often because I'll just straight up eat them to excess like a weirdo. I don't know what it is, I can't stop myself and this didn't start until like 4 years ago.
Not a candy but the Anamalitos cookies by El Mexicano, especially when they are overcooked. Not super sweet but so tasty. Also the Marias when they are a little overcooked as well.

That's a uk branded chocolate candy.
They're not the smarties I'm referring to.
Dude. I'm 38 years old. I've been eating smarties my whole life. Stop telling me what my favorite candy is called. They're not rockets. Or whatever.

Well I've never seen those type of smarties.. Not everyone is in the USA.

If you're serious, can I ask why? I've never met someone who likes them and I'm curious what it is about them that people like.
waz@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
Personally I think it's mostly nostalgia for me at this point. I liked them as a kid because we didn't get candy too often, and I could make these last a long time. I'd usually split each disc int 4 peices and just suck on each quarter until it was gone before eating the next one.
Jambone@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y
When I'd spend a summer week at my Grandma's in the early '60s, my cousin would take me to Luke's Store, where a dollar would buy a bag full of candies. Always included was a sleeve of Necco wafers.
I liked the flavors and would try to eat them slowly, but usually ended up crunching through them.
In 2018 when the Necco company went bankrupt, I was traveling a bit for work and would buy bags full wherever I found them. It was a relief when the Spangler company bought the brand and resumed production.

I also like them. Their flavors are very unique compared to other candies, and the texture is too. It's satisfying to crunch them, and the packaging+colors looks nice.
AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y
Do you suck on them or just like...crunch/chew? Do you eat more than one at once?
I was reading on their wiki page that they have gone through some formula changes, was it noticeable to you?
Feathercrown@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
The formula change was before my time. I crunch every candy (except like, jawbreakers) so yeah crunch for these too. I do one at a time usually I think.

It's been years, but I got mine from Amazon, when I still shopped there. I hate to boost their bottom line, there are bulk candy sites out there that are probably much more deserving of your money.

Dunno if it's candy or a cookie.... But those new chocolate filled ice cream cones from trader Joe's. Not the ice cream ones, the chocolate filled cones. Omg, I ate 2 boxes when they first became available

As an Aussie, Curly Wurly’s are crack here, though they’ve gotten far more expensive and are hard to justify buying now given how “small” they are.

Gumballs. I can't buy them often because I'll just straight up eat them to excess like a weirdo. I don't know what it is, I can't stop myself and this didn't start until like 4 years ago.

Not a candy but the Anamalitos cookies by El Mexicano, especially when they are overcooked. Not super sweet but so tasty. Also the Marias when they are a little overcooked as well.
