What favourite/worst Hallowe'en candy?

My grandma used to buy the Mary Janes every year, though I don't remember them being called Mary Janes.

Couldn't eat them today. They would rip out all of the expensive dental work I've had done in the last month. And here, here for Junior Mints.

 

Can't believe the hate for Mounds that's going down, here.

The things are transcendent.

 

Junior Mints are my movie snack with Milk Duds.

 

Where's the hate for those orange 'circus peanuts?' Yuck.

 

When I was a kid, oddly, I was never a big fan of Reese's or Snickers. I'd always trade my Snickers for Milky Ways and just give the Reese's cups away. What a fool I was...

The worst, most vile, most disgusting things on earth were Mary Janes, and those cheap knockoff Mary Janes in the orange and black wrappers. You could just chew on a pebble coated in peanut butter and get the same effect. I should've planted a razor blade in them one year and taken it to the cops, just so those things would be on the banned list alongside apples and popcorn balls. The Mary Janes were always the last things left in the bowl (candy, not toilet), and would inevitably end up being tossed out sometime around Thanksgiving.

 

OK, I admit my ignorance. But they have Halloween in Canada? I thought it was one of those American holidays like Thanksgiving or New Year's.

 

No my friend, we are just as greedy as the Americans when it comes to getting grub on Hallow's Eve.
Thanksgiving is celebrated in Canada in October and US in November. Canadians also celebrate New Years on January 1st; however if you are Jewish, your New Year was last month and if you are Indian, your New Year is coming up (another grub grabbing moment). Also, Chinese have their New Year in February.

 

Whoever said Smarties taste like chalk, I need to see them out back real quick. When you are allergic to chocolate, you gotta get your sweets where you can. Starburst and Smarties.

 

Smarties are like an institution.....I can't believe people don't like them.

(Did you eat the red ones last ;D ?)

 

As a kid, I'd love getting pixie sticks. Man, I'd be up all night sucking those down.

 

Yeah, that and Fun Dip.

Loved Sweet Tarts.

Those damn Gobstoppers and Jawbreakers caused me to have emergency surgery one year. Don't be fooled by the pretty colours.

 

Nope, I just ate them as they came out of the pack.

Xan, be careful with your statement there. It could be quote changing fun.
