For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

Lol, you’re something else, candy corn?? That stuff is vile.

The worst I can say about dots is they’re just sugar, albeit glued to paper.

Will you come organize my candy bowl this year? 😆

In the US, dots are hard gumdrops.

Also, if your candy corn sucks, it’s because it’s not Brach’s.

In the US dots can also refer to candy buttons as well as the gross gumdrops

I like the gross gumdrops, but I don’t care for the acid blotters.

I was going to agree, but I haven’t had Brach’s candy corn in a while, every so often those large companies change the formula to make things cheaper* so it’s hard to be sure.

You really need to try mixing the candy corn with salted peanuts. 👁️👄👁️👌

Whoppers are 95% great. It’s that gross 5% that really makes me savor the rest.

Yea, the periodic weird one really makes it an exciting gamble.

Are you taking about those weird chewy ones? Because those are my favorites.

Maybe they meant raisinettes, a lot of people don’t like raisons.

Edit: never mind, milk duds are chewy as hell, but also good. I ruled them out because I figured most people would like them (assuming their teeth don’t get pulled out).

Side note: if you didnt chew now&laters and instead sucked on them. You have infinitely more self control than I do.

No, some whoppers end up with the inside not all whipped and crunchy, but a little chewy. They’re great.

Those licorice flavored taffy candies that are in a black and orange wrapper.

They are fucking gross as is most anise flavored things but their stickiness makes them worse than other things.
