Friday OT #2 - Worst Halloween Candy
- Thread starter Angie
- Start date
Can I add in a vote for worst decision by a candy executive? Whoever decided to change the green Skittle from lime flavor to green apple. That dude/dudette should be fired immediately!
I like most candies. Like candy corn and those orange and black things. Someone mentioned Now and Layers which are awesome IMO. Not a huge fan of licorice but will eat it. But the one candy I can't stand is circus peanuts. I'm not sure if I've actually gotten them for Halloween, but I am sure someone somewhere has subjected poor trick'r treaters to these gawdaweful things. I'd rather eat an apple stuffed with razor blades. Blech!
My daughter got "Razzles", and I'd never had one so I gave it a try. It started as this awful, chewable Pepto tablet type of chalky textures. After a bit of chewing, it eventually took on the texture of double bubble that you've chewed too long. My god it was awful.

Are you guys talking about Three Musketeers? Because Milky Way bars have stuff inside...
edit: count me in as a Mounds fan.
They have to be. It actually starts to make sense now.
Don't know how you can't taste caramel.

Wrong. Not only are they not the worst candy, they are the BEST candy, Halloween or otherwise. Love me some Mary Jane........the candy, that is.
This is the most disgusting candy I have ever tasted, hands down:
I like them, but you can only have like 3 or 4 because they are so sweet.
Friend of mine bought bags and bags of mini carrots, and then carved little eyes, and trimmed them to make them look like little ghosts, and gave those out for halloween last year.
He had the nerve to ask all of his facebook friends who had the coolest house in his town.
This year he gave out snickers bars
I think Angie nailed it right out of the gate. I have ALWAYS hated those orange & black wrapped, nasty tasting taffy wannabes. They've been around since I was a kid (and that's a very long time). Come to think of it, I wonder if people just pick them out of their kids' rejects every year and recycle them the following year? Some of those things could be 50, 60 years old...boggles the mind!
Methinks maybe you smoked too much Mary Jane...the herb, that is...and had the munchies. That's the only explanation I can come up with for liking those nasty candies...
That's my fear, too. I don't even know if you can buy those things anymore - are they like fruitcake? Do you just keep regifting it year after year?
