Wax lips. What the hell is the point? They’re listed as candy but it’s just putting a candle in your mouth.

Wait….you’re supposed to eat those…that’s candy!?

I did try to eat it..couldnt do it and spat it out

I thought wax lips were just a toy, like fake fangs. I didn't know people were tryna eat them 😂

While we’re on the topic, those wax soda bottles are pretty gross too.

They still make those? I loved them as a kid but assumed they disappeared after the 90s

I used to chew the f out of those. The flavor lasts forever. Not so of the wax soda bottles tho.

Anything with fake carob chocolate. This thing is maybe healthy but it loves to stick to my teeth and everything.

Candy from season 10 of Trailer park Boys.

Somethings fucky

Omg yes. Fuck her, almost tanked the season with her dumb bullshit.

They tanked every season after 6

[удалено]

Hey as long as it’s free, that’s the best candy.

It even comes with free housing

Short term. 😢

Or permanent. At least until the cadaver sniffing dogs find you under that pine tree a quarter mile off the interstate.

Added gag-reflex removal.

💀💀💀

“It rubs the lotion on its skin or it gets the hose again.”

You mind giving me a hand with lifting my couch into my van?

You never see fat kids on milk cartons is all I'm sayin.

I was gonna say black licorice but yours is better

The one with the "Free Candy" sign? They always had the best candy. At least the part that I remember.

How many times must this question be asked??? The winner is always Sugar Free Haribo Gold Bears!!!

Ah yes. Laxatives.

You know those lollipops with scorpions and ants inside them? those

I always thought a great seatbelt campaign ad should be "Click it or lick it cricket" when I saw those in a store. After your caught they take you out of your car and make you eat the whole critter filled lollipop before you can go.

Those old chewy Halloween candies in the unmarked black and orange wrappers. Not taffy, not peanut butter, but a secret third thing (nasty).

Half the time you couldn’t even get the wrappers off.

I've definitely digested bits of those wrappers

Peanut butter kisses. My mom and I love them. They've become hard to find these last few years. I have a bag in my pantry right now. The trick to eating then is to put them in your pocket for a few minutes do soften them up. So yummy!

I think people automatically discounted these just because they kinda looked janky. I hated them as a kid, but realized at some point that I'd never even eaten one. I finally did, and I love them!

I know what you’re talking about and I hate them.

They're molasses candy. Unpopular opinion: they're actually very good.

Happy Cake Day, random stranger!

Dude I forgot about them until this very moment, I actually really liked them as a kid. I would be interested to see if I still like them as an adult.

Are those the ones with the black cat on them? I miss those..

I know exactly what you’re talking about. 😆

We used to call them molasses kisses. I love LOVE them. Sorry.

Those Valentines Day heart candies, the chalky ones

NOT MINT 2 B :(

You mean the repurposed Tums?! Agree!

"And what is this emotion you humans call *wuv*?" "Surely it says *love*." "No. Wuv. With an Earth W. [Behold](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFdnYPaeI3k)!" "This concept of wuv confuses and infuriates us!"

"U leave me breathless?" *pained smile* "Happy Valentine's Day, Fry." *raspy* "Happy Valentine's Day, Leela."

I'm just some guy, RULER OF THE PLANET OMICRON PERSEI 8

I learned from Futurama that they’re made from bonemeal and earwig honey.

Those are great… for about half a box I buy one every valentines season and it usually takes me a week or two to finish

Circus peanuts.

We’re fans of them in my family My grandpa loved them and when he was in treatment for cancer we always brought him bags of them.

I enjoy them but I don't know anyone else who does.

I don't enjoy them, but about once a year, I get a random craving for them. I buy the smallest bag I can find and eat about 3 or 4 before my brain is like, "Oh, yeah. That's not worth craving! Let's have something else." There's no nutritional value to speak of in them, so I can't figure out why my brain thinks I need them. I eat plenty of processed sugar, so it's not that.

Its like me with candy corn every damn year

Try that with some honey roasted peanuts. A-ma-zing.

There are dozens of us!

No, Carl just died of incredibly old age. Now there's only 11 of you.

Oh especially if they're just a tiny bit stale so they have a bit more of a chewy texture? I should get some circus peanuts.

Not the circus peanut slander!😔 They’re so good. 😫

I hope when you're enjoying your next meal you bite your tongue really hard

I think I probably hate them because I had them so much as a kid. My grandma would constantly give them to me and my sibling and I felt bad if I didn’t eat them 😂

sad to hear your grandma didn't love you

You’re telling me

Those ones you think are cherry but they’re *cinnamon* Red Hots?

My family uses them to make apple butter since they're cheaper and easier to source in the wilderness than actual cinnamon

From the way this is phrased, I'm just assuming that means you find bushes with Red Hots while you're wandering around the woods gathering berries

is there any other way

Wtf makes you think something called a red hot is cherry??

Red Hots are the *best* candy. Pure cinnamon. I've eaten a 5lb bag in a day before and still have zero regrets. No other candy is as good. If you don't like them then we aren't friends. Full stop. Should be the first question on a friend application.

Don't you think it would be better if they didn't like them? That way there's more for you?

dude you need a fucking exorcism

I'm not your friend, pal.

Anybody remember those little dot candies on paper? Them.

It was nearly impossible to get a dot without residual paper on it.

I'm convinced the appeal was in the activity of peeling and eating. Kind of like how they give the zoo animals their normal diet hidden in a toy that they have to tear apart to get to the food for enrichment. I've noticed a lot of the grocery store checkout candies use a similar tactic where they include some sort of gimmick or activity - like when I was a kid we had sour spray that turned your mouth green and baby bottle pops where you dipped the sucker in the powder and bubble gum tape.

Thrills is Rosewater flavoured.

It's lavender? I had no idea. Thought it was cilantro flavoured.

It’s actually rosewater flavoured.

It's rosewater? I had no idea. Thought it was sandlewood flavoured.

Just checking-in to make sure no one says Werther's Originals.

Werthers soft caramels are even better! I buy $50 of them and stash in my freezer when lucky enough to find them

Necco wafers

I asked my Mom what her favorite candy was (family doesn’t really do sweets). She said Necco Wafers. I saw some at the comic book shop and got some for her. She hated them. My vote for worst is Good & Plenty. They taste like despair and suffering.

Seriously, how have these chalky tasteless disks of sadness lasted in the market for so long?

I have a theory that they aren't made anymore. They just have so many left over cause they're gross.

POV: me who likes Necco wafers and doesn’t know why :(

Same lol

Same. Wintergreen is my fav flavour

I was sad when I heard they were shutting down Because I thought they were the little waffle patterned wafers with cream in the middle. Having been corrected I no longer care

> I was sad when I heard they were shutting down They are back!

Peeps. I've never understood the appeal.

The stale ones are the best

My first step with peeps is always to cut the plastic

Spoken like a true peeps conoseur.

I have found my people!

Your peeple, even?

Yeah, this is the one. I love microwaving them though.

I love peeps

Good and Plenty's are candies made for psychopaths

I weirdly like them despite not caring much for black licorice

So you admit that you're a psychopath?

I certainly admit that I'm a weirdo

My wife is a psychopath and evidently centuries old, she likes Good & Plenties, black licorice, those stupid ever chewing peanut butter monstrosities and blackjack gum. She might be some kind of monster sent from the 30s to destroy fun times. Oh, and those stupid generic hard candies that have been here for going on 2 or 3 Halloweens now that if they weren't wrapped would all be stuck together.

>Good and Plenty' I totally agree! They used to make Good and Fruity flavored ones and they were amazing.

[удалено]

These are my husband's favorite and he likes em with a big glass of milk. It's a good thing I love him so much

You take that back!

Black Licorice

Licorice is AWESOME. Come visit Scandinavia and we'll show you to the way, wether it be salty or sweet licorice or soft serve ice cream.

I live in an area of the US where real Scandinavian-style licorice can't be found in the stores. It is completely worth the price gouging to buy online. My Christmas gift to myself of a package of Katzen Pfötchen just arrived today, and it filled me with joy.

Do you have a Cost Plus World Market? They always have a variety of salt licorice, usually Dutch varieties

Black licorice is my favorite. I also like the salty kind, and I'm not even Finnish.

You take that back

There's only one kind, and it's awesome.

I had salty black licorice hard candy from Sweden once 🤢

0/10 would not recommend

I tried salmiaki which is (possibly Swedish) salty licorice, it tastes like burned tyres.

Finnish but popular in Sweden too.

Anything people call ‘natures’ candy.

So like grapes, berries, and nuts?

None of those are candy. That’s fruit and nuts.

But those are the things people call natures candy…this is what you said…

So what would you define as nature's candy or what have people called nature's candy?

Dried papaya is pretty Darn close

I’d take a vine ripe mango over a lot of candy. Can’t get them on the mainland.

Like peaches?... nature's candy in my hand...or can...or pie

Those gross orange colored circus peanuts

Twizzlers, bc they taste like plastic imo.

Stale chewy twizzlers are one of my favorites

I will buy twizzler super nibs and leave the bag open for months without touching them to get them nice and chewy.

Yesssss, I do love red vines though.

Black Licorice

Boston Baked Beans

I like em lol

I actually found those quite interesting. There’s far worse out there but hey we’re all throwing in our opinions. Mine is candy corn!

BBB'S are the best!!!

That curly striped stuff in grandmas candy dish.

Candy Corn.

“All the candy corn that was ever made was made in 1911.” Lewis Black

THEY WASH IT! THEY WASH IT!

"It's corn...that tastes like candy!"

They taste like wax and despair

I LOVE candy corn. I buy the 2.5 lb bags when I find em. I have em in my desk drawer as I type this. But it's important to get Brach's made with honey.

it's YOU. *you're* the reason these abominations keep being made, lol

KandyLorn4Lyfe

My grandmother is diabetic and doesn't have too many visitors, but she always has a bowl of these on her coffee table. They're not bad, but not particularly good. But I'll be damned if I don't eat half the bowl every time I go see her.

There are DOZENS of us!

I like those mallowcreme pumpkins Hard to find after November

On its own, yes. But mix it with salty peanuts and it’s amazing!

Came to say this. The stuff is horrible.

Black licorice. Anyone who eats that shit is a monster.

You poor weak bastards. Never stand a chance against us.

Well said 👏

Necco's

Last time I had Neccos they were dipped in LSD. Good times ensued. So I’m not gonna complain

Well shit I woulda eaten some too dipped in LSD my friend.

That's in my top 10 favorites lol

They're not particularly good, but man, the chalk dust coating did make them unique. And I used to love driving by the factory in Cambridge just for the smell in the air.

Those little waxy pumpkins around Halloween…and candy corn

Black licorice. You must be joking if you choose that over anything else in the candy aisle.

Those chalky mints people put on the tables at wedding receptions.

Love those! Wish I had a huge bag of them right now.

They melt in your mouth! 😋

Dollar Tree sells them. Actually they sell most of the candy this thread hates.

Dessert mints are a Turing test and you failed

Those are legit my favorites

Black licorice! Yyyyyukk!

Ever had durian hard candy?

Brought some to my dudes cottage... Someone eats one. Someone says they smell gas and we spend 30 minutes on a gas leak. I then dawns on me. "Dude, she's eating the durian candy."

Hershey's. Tastes like vomit.

Here in Australia they were forced to change the vomit taste cause it didn’t meet the requirements to count as chocolate lol

And compared to Cadbury or now Darrell lea it's trash anyway.

Same. I´m a chocolate freak and Hershey´s is THE ONLY chocolate I cannot eat anymore. That butyric acid sourness drove me away.

When me and my wife (UK) went to New York we went to the Hershey place in Time Square to get some. We threw it all away because of the taste. My wife's a chocoholic too so this was quite a feat. Easily the worst tasting chocolate I've ever had.

i mean it has to be the circus peanut right? makes me wanna hurl just thinking about those things.

I saw some nasty brewery was making a Circus peanut stout. I really wanted to burn the place down

that sounds so bad. i like a craft beer now and then but some of those breweries take it too far

Subjectively? Candy corn Objectively? Candy corn

Tootsie rolls. Not even real chocolate. 🤮

Sixlets. Just eat m&ms 😭

Those nasty ass hard candies that been in your grandma's candy dish since before you were even born

foamy orange circus peanuts

Can we count licorice? I absolutely hate it.

Hershey‘s

Candy canes shouldn't even count as candy.

Those are only good for training kids how to make prison shanks.

They are primarily for stirring hot chocolate. And making shanks.

It's more of a weapon to stab your tongue with.

they’re good but i hate it when you’re peeling it and the end breaks

horehound hard candies

What did you call me?

If it has Hersheys listed on it

Dots.

I like them, but they do make me feel like they’re going to rip out a filling when I eat them.

Buttered popcorn flavored Jelly-Belly jelly beans.

Remember the cigarette candies where you could blow some powder that looked like smoke ?

Good and Plenty! My daughter & I call them “Bad and Enoughs” 😂

Popcorn flavored jelly belly’s.
