Re: NBR: What is your favorite Fall/Halloween Candy?

  • I like the chocolate candy corn, but it's not my favorite. I can eat a handful, then I feel sick.

  • I don't like any of the fall specific candy (candy corn, those peanut butter things wrapped in wax paper, etc). I just like that it's more "acceptable" to gorge on all the other candy I like the rest of the year. :P

  • I love candy corn, but otherwise just your normal candy bars. I love pb cups a little too much :) I'm not really into most of the pumpkin flavored stuff they've come out with. Peppermint at christmas is another story though...

    Ditto. I really like how Reese's makes those BIG pumpkin peanut butter cups. YUM.
    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

  • Nothing Halloween specific, unless you want to count the Halloween Oreos. I swear the colored creams just taste better.

    I like the Reese's Pumpkins and I'm going to try the Starburst Candy Corn this year too.

    Wait, what? Starburst makes candy corn?! Is it supposed to taste like candy corn or like starbursts? This may be a game changer.

  • I guess I don't discriminate with candy at all. I do like to eat candy corns here and there but my fav fall treat is definitely caramel apples!  YUMM-O!

    I feel this way about Easter M&Ms.  Somehow they taste better when they are pastel.

    DH and I don't generally do anniversary gifts, but this year he bought me a bag of candy corn because it's the one candy that he truly hates and he knows that he won't eat any of it on me.  I love candy corn, but generally ITA with mrsvedo that I just like that I can justify eating tons of regular candy.  If it's fun size it doesn't count, right?
  • Agreed Suzie. I'm not one to sit down and eat a whole Hershey's bar in one sitting but a couple fun sizes? Sure

  • I like it all, except black licorice.  Something about the fall/holiday packaging just makes it even more delicious!

  • Vanilla tootsie rolls!  I don't know if they are really 'Halloween candy' but that is the only time of year I can find the bags of just vanilla tootsie rolls.

  • Any and everything Reese's. I know that's not particularly "Fall", but it feels Fall/Halloweenish to me, because that's when I eat them. 

    I also love things like sweet tarts, spree, Pez, Smarties...all those fruit flavored powdery crunchy things.

  • I'm a big fan of candy corn/pumpkins. And Halloween Oreos.

    I really just love that everything comes in tiny packages. I'm the person who wants one bite of everything off the buffet, so not having to choose just one candy bar makes me happy.

  • I think candy corn is an American thing. I just don't understand the draw to it, and don't see it much here, let alone different flavours.

    @thismodernlove There is pumpkin flavoured Poptarts?!!?! Must have!!!

    I love candy period, and eating candy in smaller proportions but at the same time in larger quantities always feel better than just large quantities.

    I must say my favourite Halloween treat is Hawkins Cheezies. These things are to die for.

  • Candy corn.. especially the one with the pumpkins and chocolate candy corn. But I also really love the mini Twizzlers (they're fatter and shorter than regular Twizzlers and taste completely different IMO)! I squeal when I see them in the store! I have to eat twice as many this year because last year I couldn't eat any because I read that it's not good to eat licorice while pg.

  • I like the caramel apple pops, and the Reeses pumpkins. But I also like all the candy you can get at Halloween- the creepy eye balls and things like that.
    I am not a huge fan of the little pumpkins and the candy corn- its not that they taste bad or anything, sometimes they give me a stomach ache.

    True! I feel strangely accomplished when I have amassed a giant pile of mini Nerds boxes.

    One of the grocery stores near my house sells flavored candy corn in those bulk bins- stuff like carmel, carmel apple, tangerine and a couple others. I don't like them but I bought a bunch of flavors for DH last year

    They are totally different!

    And, I've never heard this before... and it makes me not want to get pregnant, ever. Twizzlers are a food group for me!

  • I can't do Candy Corn or pumpkins. My favorite fall treat is probably the reese pumpkins. They are so yummy. (I think its because they have more peanut butter than regular reeses)  I also like the pumpkin spice kisses, though I can never find any around here.

    And I'm totally intrigued by this concept of starburst candy corn.
