    My faves were always snickers, peanut m&ms and smarties. Years ago, I use to love Mary Jane's. Anyone remember those? They were chewy and on a stick.

  • i feel like chocolate is anytime candy, and not halloween candy. so i prefer junk candy you wouldn't eat any other time of year...nerds, fun dip, blow pops.


  • My favorite is Milk Duds and those caramel apple lolipops, but i also like Kit Kats.  

    @deedee1017 -- smarties are the WORST!  As a kid i always thought that the white smarties gave me headaches.  Now i just think they taste like sweet chalk

  • SS- any and all chocolate is the best. I enjoy getting sixlets the most though.

    I know! It's the oddest thing because everything else with the chalk consistency makes me cringe.

    While we are on the subject of Smarties....

    I know you guys are talking about the Smarties that are just pure sugar and come in the little roll, but every time someone mentions them, it always makes me think of the Smarties that Cadbury makes (I think?) - the M&M-type candy. Maybe this is a UO, but I HAAATE those. I love M&Ms, but I freaking hate those M&M-impostor Smarties. And I hate how people always act like Smarties are superior because they are European or something. 

    No, just no.

    :-??

  • I luv the Nerds.

    I totally have to disagree with you, I grew up on smarties (Canadian version) made by Cadbury. Omg they are the best!
    I actually can't stand regular m&ms (horrible I know)

  • I saw those awful popcorn balls in Target yesterday and had an immediate flashback from childhood tick or treating. Popcorn balls = a pang of disappointment in the middle of my chest.
  • Reeces, almond joy, and fast break are my favorites. I love snickers but only the holiday shaped ones (pumpkins, eggs, christmas trees). They have a better goo to peanut ratio!

  • PB cups, but only if they are pumpkins.  If not I like an almond joy or a gummi candy.

  • I voted Reece's, because chocolate and peanut butter is the best, though I did love 100 grand as a kid.  

    I choked on a dot once, so they suck.
