Hey, I know it's stupid, but I like my candy once in a while, and I think we have all established that I am the kinda guy that posts stuff like this.

Oh and mine is Swedish Fish.

Kit-Kat. Also, Dove chocolates.

Actually, I like a lot of candy. I intentionally limit myself to one candy item a week so I don't turn into a blimp.

I recently discovered Payday and fell in love with it, very tasty. Unfortunately it pulled out one of my crowns and though I got it fixed, there's this paranoia element lurking...I'll have to stick with less chewy stuff.

Oh man. I used to work at a Gourmet Food Shop, and we could pretty much make excuses to taste anything to y'know, sell it to people and stuff. Well, this stuff rocks!

Twix, but I'm game for almost any chocolate.

Any ramblings are entirely my own, and do not represent those of my employers, coworkers, friends, or species

ASSUMING we stay on topic, I have a sweet tooth. And yes, I am diabetic but allow myself some candy in moderation. I just finished a few Peanut M&M's.

Skittles.

I love the chewiness/flavors. The commercials as of these last few years have been IMO interesting in a fun way.

Does anybody else like to squeeze them so the guts pop out and the shell splits before eating? I do that because it has a nice mouth feel to me.

Lindt Dark Chocolate truffles
Twix
Kit Kats
Smarties
Red Vines

For the record, I need to state that Twizzlers are disgusting. They are a sad imitation of red vines, and fail in every way.

Milk chocolate.

Atomic Fireballs were always a favorite, too. Haven't had one in years.

I think this needs a poll, with the basic categories:
* Chocolate-based
* Sugar-based
* Other freaky stuff

i can't stand swedish fish. the texture is just wrong for me.
my favorites: DOTS (as mentioned above)
peanut butter cups: which i'm steering clear of until this peanut butter scare is over with (just to play it safe)
also, almost any kind of gummy does the trick for me. gotta be the soft/semi-soft kind.

Gummy anything, peanut butter anything. It's not rare for me to have a package of sour gummy worms as my major meal for the day.
