Thought there was too much discussion of real food on this board right now. How about some candy!

Whats the best? This was a challenge but just put together my top 5 with countless honorable mentions.

1. Original size Reese's Cup - not the other sizes though. The ratio of chocolate to PB is perfect.
2. Sour Patch Kid
3. Twix
4. Trolli Sour Worms
5. Take 5 Bar - sleeper pick here but the inclusion of pretzels is too good

If I had to pick 5 to have the rest of my life and couldn't eat any others:

1. Reese's cups (Or the seasonal ones like Trees or Pumpkins. Those are elite because they have more PB)
2. Trolli Sour Worms
3. Peanut M&Ms
4. Reese's Fast Break
5. Wild Berry Skittles

I've never been very big on candy so I won't make a list, but two that I like that are probably not super popular are York peppermint patties and big hunks

1. Ritter sport butter biscuit
2. 5th avenue bar
3. Ovomaltine chocolate bar (if you like malt, this is a winner)
4. Whatchamacallit
5. Kit Kat

Not much of a fan of standard candy. Cherry starburst are good. Sour apple blow-pops are nice. Other than that, peppermint ice breakers gum.

1. Peanut M&M's
2. Reece's Cups, the eggs are my favorite once Easter comes around.
3. Twix
4. 5th Avenue/Butterfinger (I put these side by side because they are both peanut butter layered candy bars but 5th Avenue isn't always available, Butterfinger is an acceptable substitute when necessary)
5. Heath/Skor


When it comes to candy, I mainly want chocolate. I'm fine with Starburst or Skittles but I don't care for gummies.

Twizzlers are terrible, there, I said it.

I only really eat a couple candies....

I really like m&m's, mainly peanut. Love plain m&m's to add in ice cream, in cookies, etc.

Also agree that the seasonal reese's (pumpkins and trees) are better than the original cups. My wife likes to stock up on those and I don't think I can walk into the kitchen without grabbing one if they're in the house.

Peanut M&Ms and Snickers

1. Butterfinger
2. Snickers
3. Peanut M&Ms
4: Reece's mini cups
5. Twix

Honorable mention and underrated. Pay Day

Assuming we're talking mass produced candy:

1. Milky Way Caramel
2. Peanut M&Ms
3. Sour Patch Kids
4. Cookies and Creme
5. Almond Joy

1. Payday
2. Heath
3. Reeces
4. Boston Baked Beans (candy coated peanuts)
5. Chic o stik (forgot how to spell it)

I like the liquid filled wax bottles especially the blue ones

I dont have much of a sweet tooth but I LOVE sour/bitter stuff

Starburst
Fruit flavored tootsie rolls
Stork Reisin's
Choceur milk chocolate
Most any other chewy fruit flavored candy like Mamba's.

Especially the ones you can get in Denver

Reeses - anything
Snickers
Peanut m&ms
Twix
Chewy sprees
Heath

Of course my 5yr old daughter has a severe peanut allergy

Haribo twin snakes
Snickers
Butterfinger
Haribo fizzy coke bottles
Hot tamales

How the hell is Sour Punch Straws not on here yet!?

1. Reece's PB Cups
2. Reece's Pieces
3. Harbio Gummy Bears
4. Peanut M&Ms
5. 3 Musketeer

1 Watchamacalit
2. Heath/skor
3. Jelly belly jelly beans
4 GooGoo cluster
5 Cadbury mini eggs

I'm sure my choices are unusual:

Haribo Peach Gummies
Darell Lea Licorice - black
El Almendro Crunchy Almond Turrone
Bit o Honey
Brach's Maple Nut Goodies

Honorable mention:
French burnt peanuts
Ghirardelli's Milk Chocolate and Caramel squares.
Heath toffee
Lint Lindor White Chocolate truffles
Cadbury Fruit & Nut Bar (UK formulation; they change the US formulation and now it seems waxy.)

EDIT: How could I forget Cadbury Crme Eggs???

Winner winner chicken dinner. That's the weirdest damn list I've ever seen.

Blame my foreign-influenced palate.

No you're good. At times I wish I was more worldly enlightened
