Top 3 Candy (because I can’t just pick one...)

lillywonderland · October 2018

1. Reese’s Cups
2. Skittles
3. Sour Patch Kids / 3 Musketeers / Haribo Gummy Bears
(tied for 3rd since apparently I don’t want to follow my own rules)

Okay so I'm not a huge sweets person but there are times I will get these if I'm at the movies lol.

1) Skittles
2) Sour Patch Kids
3) Air Heads Sour Belts

chichiphin · October 2018

1. Sour worms - but I’m selective and only truly like trolly
2. Reese’s
3. Almond joy

nolemomma14 · October 2018

1. Reese’s peanut butter cups. The eggs they have at Easter are my favorite, but the pumpkin is a close second! 2. Butterfingers 3. Tootsie Pops

1. Sour Patch Kids
2. Twizzlers
3. Blow Pops - my inner child likes bubblegum

mamanbebe · October 2018

In no particular order:

Reese's pb cups
Reese's pieces
Butterfinger

When I was in my 20s, I was working for a luxury apparel brand running their e-commerce dept. When their flagship store admin was on vacation, I also had to fill-in for running the cash room (balance registers, put together deposit, etc). So one Monday that I was on-duty, I had gone out the night before and was absolutely H U N G O V E R. I had to count out for the weekend sales and it was ROUGH. At lunch I came back with a big salad, but after I was done I plopped a giant bag reese's pieces, a giant bag of sour patch kids and a magnum sized can of red bull onto the lunch table. OH the looks I got. I ended up scooping it up and quickly locking myself away in the cash room with my sugar haul for the rest of the day.

I'm also not really big on sweets, and I especially can't/won't eat it right now with my PCOS but before I knew about my insulin resistance, in no particular order I'd have to choose:

Chocolate or yogurt covered raisins
M&Ms
Gummy frogs (you know the green apple flavoured gummies with a marshmallow base?)

Honestly though, even when I did eat candy, I only needed maybe a small handful and I'd be done. The Halloween sized bags of M&Ms where you get like 10 pieces would last me the entire day.

riff323 · October 2018

1. Sour Patch Kids
2. Snickers
3. Jellybeans (any kind, even the black ones)

minnek8 · October 2018

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (DH and I just had a looooooooong road trip discussion about the entire Reese's line-up and what was best, including the eggs/pumpkins/trees, the new "Big Cup", Reese's Pieces, et al. We take our peanut butter & chocolate very seriously.)
Twix. Mostly because when you get the regular size it feels like 2 candy bars instead of just one.
Milky Way, but ONLY the tiny Halloween size.

b_1029 · October 2018

In no order...Reese's, Twix, and Hershey's with almonds. Really will snack on anything though...

foodislove · October 2018

Ahhhh, ya'll made me remember Twix. I'm not normally a choco-person, but loved me some Twix.

grangerhp37 · October 2018

1. Reese’s
2. Sour patch kids (just red and orange)
3. Kit Kats

Not a big candy lover but my H sure is!

marebear15 · October 2018

1. Ghirardelli peppermint bark
2. Reese's Pieces
3. Oreos or chocolate covered pretzels? Idk, neither of these are candy, but I'm just not into candy, more deserts or sweets. Edit: Twix. Forgot about that one. That's my 3rd.

kiki047 · October 2018

@marebear15 Ooooh Ghirardelli. You fancy. Peppermint bark is next level. I also forgot about the Andes mint chocolates you get from Olive Garden. M&Ms are getting bumped.

zamora_spin · October 2018

Cadbury Mini Eggs (not Halloween themed but my absolute favorite)
Reese's PB Cups (popular choice it seems)
Junior Mints

Close 4th is Good & Plenty

littleredm · October 2018

I'm not a huge candy eater (except right now when the house is stocked with Halloween candy) but I'd have to say my favorite 3 are

1) Hershey's Hugs

2) Skittles

3) Sour Gummy Worms.

Avrilmai · October 2018

@chichiphin we were so close, you lost me at almond joy...I mean I'll eat it, but not top 3
@zamora_spin my DH loves those mini-eggs, the chocolate with the candy shell, right. they make a Christmas version now.
@riff323 black jelly beans... ick.
1. Trolli Sour Gummy Worms (candy)
1. Reese's Holiday themed (egg/pumpkin/tree). I prefer the PB/Choc ratio in the holiday themed ones (Choc)
3. Snickers

I also really like the Halloween sized boxes of nerds and heath bars

emeraldduchess · October 2018

1. Peanut butter cups (I love them with dark chocolate)
2. Peppermint Patties
3. Twizzlers
I do love Junior Mints but the tiny trick or treat boxes drive me insane. There's only like three in there and they always stick to the inside!

PugMum · October 2018

1) Tootsie rolls
2) Twix
3) Nibs

kbrown2385 · October 2018

Reese’s PB cups - frozen if possible
Twix
Peanut M&M’s

zamora_spin · October 2018

@Avrilmai Yes, exactly those. THEY MAKE A CHRISTMAS VERSION? I love those things. I like to hold them in my mouth so the shell kind of crumbles and the chocolate starts to melt...

b_1029 · October 2018

@kbrown2385 ummm YES to the frozen PB cups! And I like Twix in the fridge!

greyl · October 2018

Give me ALL of the chocolate and caramel!!!

1. These sea salt milk chocolate covered caramels from a chocolate shop in Portland that I used to work at: Moonstruck. OMG the best. I also love Milky Ways, Twix, anything with caramel is going in this slot (except ones with nuts lol)

2. Reese’s of any variety

3. KitKats

lcking82 · October 2018

Oh wow/— I love candy SO much!!

1. Skittles
2. Starburst (esp yellow and red)
3. Cadbury cream eggs.

I especially love Easter candy. Jelly beans, pastel m&ms, skittles and starburst in Easter packaging.

kbrown2385 · October 2018

@dogmomma096 @jiraiya how did I forget KitKats? I think they bump peanut m&ms off my list.

@b_1029 yes to Twix in the fridge! I love when the caramel is nice and cold!

Avrilmai · October 2018

@zamora_spin We found them for the first time last year! My DH was so excited. He bought 2 bags on the spot. spoiler bc the pic is huge. eta: DH said the Easter ones are better, but that may be in his head.

lillywonderland · October 2018

@Avrilmai, @zamora_spin I forgot about the Cadbury Mini Eggs!! Also, just so you know, I mistakenly bought a bag of white chocolate Cadbury mini eggs last year. Apparently that’s a thing now. I mean...I still ate them all... it just wasn’t the same.

emeraldduchess · October 2018

Does anyone else remember mint 3 Musketeers or did I dream that? I have never had a frozen pb cup. Might need to try that! For science.

kiki047 · October 2018

@emeraldduchess "for science"

Am I the only old lady around here with sensitive teeth who can't eat frozen chocolate bars? I also don't like ice cream with chocolate pieces in it (like rolos). Cookie pieces are fine but the candy is too hard.

emeraldduchess · October 2018

@kiki047 I have sensitive teeth, too. I can't do cold caramel at all. I had ice cream with Twix pieces in it and I thought I was going to break a tooth.

crossfitbabybump · October 2018

1.) Carmel Apple Suckers

2.) Peanut Butter M & M's

3.) Almond Joys

b_1029 · October 2018

@kiki047 @emeraldduchess I was trained for years by my grandma, who used to keep everything in her freezer (hostess cupcakes, Reese’s, etc) and fridge (all other candy). I blame her for my sweet tooth and affinity for cold things! Now it just makes me nostalgic and reminds me of her 😊

eta spelling

celticknotfire · October 2018

1. Reese's peanut butter cups

2. Skittles

3. Anything dark chocolate

I don't eat sugar anymore but I may have to have a piece because it's a holiday. That's a good enough excuse right?

daisy0322 · October 2018

1. Sour patch kids
2. Reeses
3. Those Carmel apple suckers

really i love all candy though haha! I'm so excited to take my son trick or treating.... hopefully the rain holds off tomorrow

kindbytealikat · October 2018

I love all candy honestly but my Halloween go tos are

1. DOTS
2. Starburst
3. Vanilla Tootsie Rolls

yes I’m slightly unconventional

kindbytealikat · October 2018

@lcking82 we’d be the perfect sarburst pain. I give away my red/yellows.
@emeraldduchess I feel the smal way about Halloween milk duds, like seriously 4!?
@zamora_spin Good and Plenty!? We can’t be friends

@minnek8 I also only eat Milky Way at Halloween, especially the dark ones

Add me to Reese Eggs camp as for best

greyl · October 2018

@kiki047 I totally shouldn't eat frozen candy but I still do! My teeth hate me for it after, the caramel gets so hard!! I seriously thought I ruined my tooth once after biting into a frozen milky way

thankfully I didn't, I still love them though.

riff323 · October 2018

@kindbytealikat omg I LOVE Dots!!!

minnek8 · October 2018

Reese's has a Candy Exchange Machine this year so you can trade in your lesser candies for the coveted Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.
