phil making me starving for wings. Just a great buffalo sauce and ranch dip. My god.

Candy - ehhh it’s okay, the occasional snickers, Twix, kit kat, exc. mostly on Easter. I’d say my fav are starburst jelly beans and mike n ikes.

Throw candy out and get the salt and vinegar chips tho for realz.

Balls, I forgot jelly beans too. (Salt and vinegar chips are definitely the bomb, especially if you can find wavy/ridged versions.)

Swedish Fish and peach rings are a nice addition.

Starburst jelly beans are pretty rad. Jelly rings. Fruit slices. Raisinets. Peanut chews. Etc.

Oh and gummy sharks are underrated because you’re eating a ****ing shark.

I have had fresh Swedish Fish in Sweden - they were extra good. As was the Swedish fish fresh from the Baltic, or wherever. They have this Christmas buffet every year called a julbard (sounds like "yule board") and they have about a million different varieties of salmon on there. Amazing. But the best things they have are these tiny sausages in a barbecue kind of sauce, called "prinskorv" - ****ing outrageous.

We only had the S word. And they were in every MRE that had candy. I swear, halfway through our tour we were all so sick of them we could have filled a duffel bag with the packages we tossed. We didn't even have kids hanging around to toss them to when we were on guard duty where we were. If you were lucky, you got the one with the "chocolate nut bar," which definitely didn't look like something you were supposed to eat. I shouldn't complain, though - at least by that point they'd improved from the MREs like the "four fingers of death." But thinking about the rainbow still makes me want to puke.
I'd rather eat only Skittles instead of having to eat a veggie omelet MRE. Spaghetti, sloppy joe, and chicken with salsa (usually came with Peanut Butter M&Ms) were probably my favorites.

Has everyone forgotten about these f***ing bombs!?!. My childhood was trying to last thru the pain to get to the sweet nectar.

Balls, I forgot jelly beans too. (Salt and vinegar chips are definitely the bomb, especially if you can find wavy/ridged versions.)

The jelly beans they have out right now are just too amazing. Jolly rancher flavors (which everyone forgot, jolly ranchers are soooo good), starburst, tropical, etc.

Salt and Vinegar of all kinds are acceptable. However, kettle cooked is a whole new plateau of chip.

I just posted about them lol. What round bits in a red bag?? We had charms and you better not have ate them in the field! They were cursed.


Uh-oh, my Spider-sense is telling me a discussion on the definition of "candy" is coming.

Ok, I'll start...#'s 6 & 7 are not candy bars, but ice cream. If it cannot be bought with the rest of the candy at the , it is not candy. Just my humble opinion.

EDIT: Let me clarify since a lot of candy can't be bought at the checkout stand. If it's not with the rest of the candy and you have to go to the freezer....not candy....to me...YMMV

As for my top 10 (in no particular order)
1 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
2 Spree
3 Runts
4 Dark chocolate
5 Lindor's truffles (Dark Chocolate with Milk chocolate filling or vice versa)
6 Nonpareils (basically large Sno-Caps, which I also love)
7 Gobstopper's
8 Mounds
9 Blo-Pops (Green Apple and Grape....Cherry and Watermelon can suck it)
10 Peanut Butter M&M's
Honorable Mention: Regular and Peanut M&M's,

Circus peanuts are the **** once every few years!
In no order
1. Smarties
2. Paper candy
3. Melon heads(lemonheads can suck it)
4. Peeps, but only around Easter and Halloween.
5. Crispy M&M’s, then normal, peanut
6. Mallowcups
7. Hersey’s MILK chocolate
8. King size kit kat
9. Nestle crunch(vastly superior to crackle)
10. Snickers
HM. Almond joy.


Guys first of all my list isn't cheating, I only mentioned list your top 10 candy, i didn't specify it had to be bars, candy has many forms.

Ice cream bars do count, because they are wrapped the same way as a regular twix or snickers bar and they are a form of candy.


I'm pissed I didn't throw in sweedish fish and gummy bears.

Defect, I thought I was the only one who liked or would list mallowcups.

I forgot about freaking Now and Laters, especially because they come in nine million flavors! I know any time I go to some independent convenience store they'll probably have a whole bunch of various Now and Laters hidden somewhere. Probably because they're also selling pot-smoking accessories and stoners want a cornucopia of flavor to choose from.

I regarded those little strawberry things with the jelly inside as "grandma candy" for so long until I finally had one and it surprised the hell out of me how good they are. My one grandma always had a bowl of Mary Janes and Bit O' Honeys that I'm convinced were just a decoration because I never saw anyone eat them. f*** those things. Also f*** ribbon candy and non pareils. Chances are if it was candy that existed during WWII it's probably vile.

I have to file Rice Krispy Treat under "baked good/dessert" but holy hell are properly made ones heavenly. Before Kellogg's started actually making their own, all the pre-made generic ones tasted like they were bound by packing foam. Freskly made ones that are still a bit gooey are orgasmic.

And who spells "Rice Crispy" with a 'C', anyway?
