Confession

lisaiesha

I have already eaten about 1/3 of the halloween candy in the house (don't worry, I left the nasty milky way, nestle crunch and kit kats for the trick-or-treaters). All the while, my husband has no idea we even have halloween candy.

And I wonder why my pants are snug.

Pass the milky ways and kit kats.

KayRI

I'll take the Kit Kats.

CaptainSerious

Seriously, give the Kit Kats another chance.

CaliopeSpidrman

I was nodding along in agreement until you got to "Kit Kats".  How can you hate Kit Kats?

lisaiesha

I would give the kit kats another chance but I don't need to add more candy to my repertoire, know what I mean?

My husband mocked me for buying Almond Joy last year, saying the kids were going to egg our house for giving out crap candy.  I love Almond Joy.  Does it fall in the raisin category?

I just ate my entire burrito in record time and then decided to look up the calorie count online

No more food for me today.

I've had a really bad attitude about food lately.  I got really pissed when I saw the halloween commercial for Kit Kat the other day.  And now I want to tell you that you should appreciate Kit Kat because you can, but I'm not crazy.

While we're confessing food things:

I've eaten way too many mellocreme pumpkins this year already.  I might get another bag tonight.

I'm not eating veg anymore.  My doctor wasn't okay with GF and vegetarian long term since GF eliminates all of the meatless burgers and stuff, plus tofu and saiten (sp?), and he said beans and cheese are not a good enough variety of proteins.  I'm enjoying fish way too much to be bothered by this.

I'm guessing almond joy is one of those things that parents will take from their kids only to eat it themselves. I think coconut is a little exotic for little kids. Certainly not in the raisin category, though.

CaptainSerious

Confession:  After reading the OP, I bought myself two Kit Kats.

I've always loved Mounds, but had to get a little older to appreciate the Almond Joy.  Now I prefer them.  Coconut rules.

 

boxerfan

dammit. now I want chocolate real bad.

CaliopeSpidrman

I've always loved Almond Joys.  But, thinking back, I'm pretty sure I was swiping Almond Joys and Mounds from my mom so maybe they're old people candy.

My sister hates chocolate so growing up our Halloween was like this:  "Sister I'll trade you three Skittles for 52 Snickers, 27 Kit Kats, and 42 Reeses."  Poor girl, she got the shaft.

I bet I could eat 10 Reeses PB cups without even trying.  

I can't do Whoppers. Grody.  Or Milk Duds because I ate them the night I had my really bad appendicitis attack. 

lmydogally

I love giving candy out for halloween more than anything.    This year I am going to pass out wine in plastic cups for the adults.

lisaiesha

I've never had appendicitis (knock on wood) and I think milk duds and whoppers are grody. What a waste of chocolate.

SarahBethBR

I love Reese's.  So much.

I'm not sure if I've ever had an Almond Joy or a Mounds.  I hated coconut as a kid, but I've come to appreciate it as an adult.  I should try one again.

Novemberrocks

I'm an equal opportunity candy eater.  I've never met a candy I didn't like.

Moi aussi.  I love coconut now.   Hmm mmm good.  I don't love almonds in candy though so no joy for me I guess.

boxerfan

You really should SB.  They're awesome.

I haven't bought my halloween candy yet this year, so I still have to decide whether to buy candy that I like, and will be tempted to eat, or candy that I don't like and will be able to resist.   I have a feeling I'm not going to make a smart decision.

I bought a bag of assorted chocolates, am eating all the good stuff and leaving the crap from trick-or-treaters. Of course we get so many trick-or-treaters that I will probably have to restock here soon.

I am super jealous of your childhood.  What a glorious arrangement!

I like Whoppers but almost never eat them because there's always that one that's sort of shrunken and not crisp like the others.  You bite into it and immediately regret waking up that morning and maybe even being born at all.  It's just not worth the risk.

MrsKizdoodle

It really wasn't a surprise to anyone I ended up with a "chocolate" dog.  :-)

KayRI

I'm trying to think of a candy bar I don't like and I'm coming up short.  I mean, I wouldn't choose a Charleston Chew, but I don't dislike them.

Skittles, on the other hand, are disgusting.

KristenBtobe

I think I ate my weight in candy corns and peanuts yesterday. Damn that is good.

mashedpotato

Charleston Chews are awesome frozen, at least they were when I was kid.

oklagirl

I'm not a fan of candy corns. Or a lot of candy, really.

Reese's and Kit Kats are heavenly, though.

Coconut has no place in candy.  None.

CaliopeSpidrman

Whaaaaa?  Vicki, you're saying that wrong.  It's pronounced, "Walnuts do not belong in food."

VickiSept2006

I'll sign your petition for walnut exclusion if you sign mine for coconut exclusion..

CaliopeSpidrman

I can't do that.  Coconut is delightful.
