Best Candy Of All Time Options

[Opinechik]

poor wam ...what's worse, no grog or no chocolate?

I love how on the American packaging the selling point is 'Naturally and Artificially Flavoured'

Whoppers are hamburgers here.

Anyone want American chocolate here go to the Reject Shop...all that Hershey's and Reece's peanut butter (eww) stuff.

Oo0oo girl now you've done it...you dissed Pennsylvania chocolate on a board filled with Pennsylvanians. Take cover.... =)

I quite like Hershey's, not as much as Cadbury, but I like it for something different. The Hershey's Cookies and Cream bar is nice, and as for PA stuff, as I mentioned, York Peppermint Patties are my fav of the ones in this bracket. We have them here too but they're just called Peppermint Patties and they're not nice because the Peppermint center is always crumbly and powdery like it's nearly about to go off. In the US it was fresh and nice.

Although as far as American candy goes, the obsession to put peanut butter into everything can just fuck right off. Next you'll be wanting to fill your candies with Cabbage or some shit.

I'm not really big on chocolate, but I like Hershey's.
Agree about the peanut butter...yuk.
Love, love, love YPP, but they give me such terrible heartburn I no longer eat them. =(

This doesn't matter, just keep eating them, it's worth the heartburn.

WTF is wrong with you people that don't like peanut butter and chocolate?

If it were like the heartburn I occasionally got in my 20's, it would be worth it.
The heartburn I sometimes get now is quite different.....accompanied by nausea.
YPP's taste much better going down than up.
sorry tmi.

I like peanut butter on an apple or toasted english muffin....just not in candy.

I like peanut butter and chocolate, just not together.
I love peanut butter on apples!! and I don't really like peanut butter in candy.
Peppermint Patties are absolutely worth all the heartburn on earth. they are amazing.
I love Peanut Chews. Also made in Pennsylvania.

and Swedish fish are made by the Malaco company. of Sweden. my friend in sweden didn't believe me and had never heard of them (I had brought her a box when I went over so we could compare packaging - it was very similar). I LOVE the grape swedish fish. they are harder and harder to find. the yellow green and orange can suck it, but grape is awesome.

root beer barrels and the coffee and cream candies my grandmother used to have, along with star mints my other grandmother always had... that was my childhood.

I've run into bears on several occasions here in PA. black bears, harmless buggers, really. (easy to say because I was never very close or in any real danger). they wander pretty close into neighborhoods as construction tears down their woody homes...

Peanut butter on: apples, bananas, toast, chocolate (me)... anything that isn't diametrically opposed to peanut butter, like pickles or something like that.

And yes, York peppermint patties are the bad assest thing in the mint-flavored universe. Which reminds me... I had coffee earlier with York Peppermint Pattie flavored creamer in it. Awe-some. http://bit.ly/LdiM0z

oops

And about the Reject shop - I didn't mean it was reject candy....that's just the name of the shop selling it! Although they do sell end of line/near use by date stuff.

Australians just seem to like peanut butter on bread/toast.

And peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are very strange to us....especially when we first hear about it because jelly to us is Jell-O to you! Your Jell-O is jam to us!

But Vegemite rules for bread/toast anyway

Lollies (candy) are just not the same anymore They were much more tasty when I was a kid.

We should do the great candy swap!

I was curieus about the York® Peppermint Pattie so I googled and found a Dutch website who sells them for € 1,20 per cookie,....what's the price of them in the US?
