What's your favorite candy bar?

[BudPalmer]

I'll always place Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup at the top of my list but lately I've had an unhealthy obsession with the new Take 5 by Hershey. They are pretty good.

[FoxInStocks]

Snickers. Tres yummy.

[freakazoid_x]

I don't blame you, I love the Take 5. It's the logical next step for the chocolate dipped pretzel. The only logical next step would be servants to serve them to you.

[EmperorNorton]

Kit Kat Chunky.

[petenbailey9]

Hershey bar with almonds

[venarnage]

Reese's. I love my cups....although I've heard good things about the new Key Lime Almond Joy....

[Darth Sabre]

I've been on a Hershey's Milk Chocolate kick for a loooong time now.

[St-Dumas]

1) Reeces Peanut Butter Cups
2) Milky Way
3) 3 Musketeers
4) Kit-Kat
5) Hershey's Classic Milk Chocolate

[ReZourceman]

Do you mean a take five? It's a pretzel with the holes filling in with peanut butter topped with caramel and peanuts dipped in chocolate. They are really good.

My favorite snack from the UK is McVitties Digestives.

[KitsuShel]

Nothing beats snickers.

Heh.
I thought about asking if anybody'd care to send me a chocolate package.
Maybe it's time to put up a "Trade HeroClix for Candy"-thread again.

hail_eris sent me a Baby Ruth once, but although it saved me from starving when stuck on the subway I didn't like it so much.

I don't like Baby Ruths either. What kind of candy would you be interested in? I'll gladly send some your way....want some Oreos too?

Elizabeth, Heroclix Enabler

[KitsuShel]

Hey, man I am a chocolate fiend. I make a mean turtle brownie. Mmmm.... caramel!!

[EmperorNorton]

I don't like Baby Ruths either. What kind of candy would you be interested in? I'll gladly send some your way....want some Oreos too?

Elizabeth, Heroclix Enabler

I dunno. There seems to be so much that I can't get here, and I don't even know what it is.
Is there something like a candy website?

I don't have a need for Oreos anymore, because several stores around here have started selling them (well, the ordinary kind ony, but that's okay). In fact I have two packs of Oreos within reach right now, but I want to turn them into an Oreo cheese cake.

[BudPalmer]

I'll help you out cousin. What kinda sweets do you like?

[EmperorNorton]

There isn't much I don't like actually.
I was just surfing the Hershey's website and it all looked great, but especially the Almond Joy and the Take 5.

[Caitriona]

Well from the UK my fav's are Maynard's Wine Gums and just plain Cadbury chocolate (it's so creamy).

Here in the states - Reese's Peanut Butter cups would be top on my list, followed by anything dark chocolate. I have been known to crave various Godiva and Lindt truffles though...

[LeaLu]

For anyone who's interested in an interesting nonfiction read about candy in general, I highly recommend:

Candyfreak: A Journey through the Chocolate Underbelly of America, by Steve Almond

The guy is fanatical about candy to a point of silliness, and the book is very funny, with several laugh-out-loud moments scattered throughout. A lot of info on regional mom-and-pop candy makers, and the struggles the small candy maker faces against the giants like Hershey and Mars (primarily distribution).

Oh, and mine's Kit Kat.

[BudPalmer]

Best quote ever in your sig line, Lealu! LOL

The only thing that could make it better would be if I made him say that! ;)

You'd have to pay extra for that

[Badgerbite]

1.Butter Finger / Clark bar(not the one Lois likes)
2.zagnut
3.Reeses
4.Frozen 3 muskratears
5.Mounds
but just pure chocolate is best (dark)

Bud, Take 5's are chocolate covered pretzels on roids, you can feel the sugar rush momemts after eating them, put 12 sugars in your coffie for the same effect, could explain the addiction

[DaJabberwocky]

(To the voice of Homer Simpson) 'Mmmm candybars.......ggggaaahhhh'

Here are a few, not yet listed, that I fondly remember:
100 Grand
Twix
Rolos
Krackle
Charleston Chew

[KitsuShel]

We cannot forget the Snickers Cruncher.

Actually if I think long and hard (*ouch*) My favorite candy is Hershey Nugget's with almond and raisins. It's just like a Chunky bar, but the chocolate is richer and yummier.

Damn, now I gotta run to Target and buy some

[K-Ness]

I could probably get a whole box Hershey's Take 5 for about 12 bucks if anyone is interested.

And EN, if you want some chocolate, I can probably help you out, seeing as you sold me some clix! (Too bad I couldn't afford the Hal Jordan)

But anyway, if you're interested, just drop me another line.

[BudPalmer]

The List:

Disney

Wal Mart

[ReZourceman]

When i sort out my first trade, i will shove in a Galaxy chocolate bar ...Its just milk chocolate, but its flavour is unique...Its called Dove in other countries in Europe i think.

Ill post up exactly what i want soon...

....K-Ness, How many Take 5's are in a box?

[EmperorNorton]

I doubt we have much here that you cannot get in the US or in the UK, but how exactly should one figure that out?

I'd definately trade for some Cadburry goodness.

[BigSoph]

Candy bar, feh...it is a chocolate bar!

Candy bar sounds like it is made out of melted together Jolly Ranchers

Mine is Wunderbar, followed by 100 Grand (actually 100G is better but they are so freakin' hard to find)

(Little cultural note here: Canadians, despite being next to the USA have closer tastes in chocolate bars to the UK than the USA. Mind you we do call fried potato snacks "chips", not crisps. We also call french fries chips as well. Which lead to a mildly amusing misunderstanding when I asked for fish and chips ina Florida restaurant. And we do not pronounce about a-boot. We say a-bowt. Clean your ears)

I sawa commercial for Dove chocolate bars. Poor choice of name seeing as one of the most popular brands of soap is Dove Bar (which I am sure do not taste very good)

Does anyone remmeber the chocolate flavoured diet supplement called AYDS? They eventually dropped the product. Serious!

[K-Ness]

I'm pretty certain they are like the standard Reeses' box... 36 bars to a box. I will confirm as soon as I am able to.okay, after some searching (I love Google!) it would appear Take 5 comes 24 to a box. If interested, i will see if I can get a box or two...

[Charaxes]

I'd definitely be interested...for either money or a trade ..... I'm sure i have some good pieces for trade for multiple chocolate bars or treats....if anyone is interested.

cough *Hal Joran* cough.


Oh yeah and Galaxy / Dove isnt that expensive here e.g. -

Cadbury bar - 43p

Galaxy Bar - 43p

Give or take 5p.

[BigSoph]

Was that a Canadian thing? I don't remember it...

I wish I found some. I would bought me a whole mess of AYDS!

I think it was US/Canada

Would have been 79-81 or so

[BigSoph]

From Jun 20/83 Time magazine article (a little later than I thought *)

Dividends The quandary could be a case study at the Harvard Business School. The problem: a deadly disease breaks out that has a name that sounds the same as that of a well-known diet product. Question: What should the marketer do to avoid possible confusion?

Jeffrey Martin Inc., the distributor of Ayds appetite-suppressant candy, has faced just this issue since AIDS, or acquired immune deficiency syndrome, began getting public attention in mid-1981. Jeffrey Martin acquired the Ayds marketing rights from Purex at about the time of the first report of AIDS.

Sales of the diet candy had been sluggish for years when Jeffrey Martin took over the product. Says Martin Himmel, company president: "We have repackaged it, redesigned it, readvertised it and given it a new breath of life." Perhaps as a result, retailers say, the disease is not hurting the product. Says Elliot Dworkin, vice president of Revco D.S. Inc., which operates 1,661 drugstores in 28 states: "Ayds sales have never been better."

* I did not need to lose a dozen pounds at that time so it wasn't really my bag

[BudPalmer]

I just had another Take 5 after lunch! Damn you Hershey!

[EmperorNorton]

Oh yeah and Galaxy / Dove isnt that expensive here e.g. -

Cadbury bar - 43p

Galaxy Bar - 43p

I think that's pretty expensive, but then Germany probably has the cheapest candy in all of Europe. At least it has been more expensive in all the countries I have been.

[Charaxes]

I think it was US/Canada

Would have been 79-81 or so
Ah, before my time...no wonder I don't remember

[ReZourceman]

Okay, due to a lot of interest in Cadburys i am going to list the normal Cadbury bars and the dfferent types you can get.


Cadbury Dairy Milk
Cadbury Dairy Milk Whole Nut (With Hazelnuts)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit and Nut (With Raisens and Almonds)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Turkish Delight (With Rose turkish delight)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Mint Crisp (With Minty Crispy bits)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Orange Crisp (With Orange Crispy bits)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Biscuit (With Shortcake spheres)
Cadbury Dairy Milk Crispies (With rice crispies in)


There are things like Cadbury Twirl (MIlk chocolate flakey nice texture covered in chocolate) but i shall post up these another time.

[Diablo4485]

3 Musketeers most definitely, though Twix is a very close second. Don't really like bars with peanuts in them, but I won't throw away a Snickers if someone gives it to me.

We live close to the Canadian border, and whenever we go to Canada, I always stop and get a Cadbury with burnt almonds.....I'd say that's my second favorite, right behind Hershey bars with regular almonds, lol! Although I do like to have a Nestle's Crunch every once in a while.

Elizabeth, Heroclix Enabler

[ReZourceman]

Oooohhh yeah Nestle Crunch are nice!

Whats a 3 Musketeers?

[Prof. Aragorn]

Snicker's Almonds.

Of course, they use to be called Mars Bars but it still tastes heavenly.

[Badgerbite]

[K-Ness]

3 Musketeers is a light, whipped chocolate surrounded in Milk chocolate. If you want to try one, I can send a single bar in the package. That way you're not out a whole case of candy you make not enjoy.

I say this because 3 Musketeers always seems to make me vomit. I can't handle the texture.


ANd as for Twix, those things are awesome. Peanut Butter never tasted much different for me, though.

[K-Ness]

That way you're not out a whole case of candy you make not enjoy.
"Make?"

I swear that accident made me slightly retarded.


"You mean it's not me noggin' it's me peepers?"

[Maniac_nmt]

My favorite is no longer in production, or at least so I've been told.

My favorite was the Cadbury Wispa bar.

I also like Yorkie bars, and Rittersport Alpenmilch (visited the Rittersport factory as a boy on a school field trip while stationed overseas, man wasn't that fun as a kid).

[K-Ness]

I know Marzipan is a real candy amde with almond paste and shaped like fruit...

But the Simpsons has left me this puzzling question: Does Marzipan Joy Joy, Mit Iodine exist?

Dont you mean might com in candy. Heh couldnt resist.

And yeah Cadbury stopped making Wispas, I was talking about them just on Sunday, and we were very upset that they had gone.

(They were bubbly Cadbury chocolate) and thye just tasted different. They did Gold, which was with caramel and Mint and one with caramel and biscuit.

Thanks for the boatload of candy, Frank!
Obviously when my parents taught me to never accept candy from a stranger they wanted me to miss out.

When I run out of Take 5s (tomorrow at the latest) I'll have to emulate them by eating Snickers and pretzels at the same time.
Strange enough, though, the Snickers you sent along tasted differently than the Snickers bars I'm used to. Somehow it was a lot sweeter.
Can anybody confirm that candy of the same brand may taste differently in different countries?

Obviously when my parents taught me to never accept candy from a stranger they wanted me to miss out.

When I run out of Take 5s (tomorrow at the latest) I'll have to emulate them by eating Snickers and pretzels at the same time.
Strange enough, though, the Snickers you sent along tasted differently than the Snickers bars I'm used to. Somehow it was a lot sweeter.
Can anybody confirm that candy of the same brand may taste differently in different countries?


But on the plus side your dentist will be able to buy that bigger house he's been looking at! ;)

My all time favorite is Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, especially Fast Break. I'm starting to really like the Willy Wonka bar.

[EmperorNorton]

I don't feel so good.

Since I lose all willpower I otherwise may have in the presence of candy I couldn't hold myself back.

I started with an Almond Joy. It was okay, but not like I had imagined it to be. I thought it would be creamier.
Then I had a Take 5. I really liked it.
While I was at it I thought I could have a king size Snickers instead of lunch. As noted before it tasted a lot sweeter than Snickers bars available here. That was strange.
As an afternoon snack I had a 100 Grand. Lots of chewy caramel, that was great.

By then I was feeling a little sick, but I wouldn't let me held back to that.
So I ate a Toll House Rich Brownie. That really rocked my socks off. My favourite out of the bunch, because there isn't anything comparable available here.

I made hot dogs for dinner to ease my stomach pain. Didn't work that well.
Since it didn't seem to make any difference anymore I had a serving of ReeseSticks as desert. The salty taste of the peant butter made me like this a lot, too. The peanut butter you get here usually is too sweet.

After taking in about 12000 calories today I better live on a spoonfull of water for the next few days, but it was a pleasent experience.

Biting off heads is my favourite pastime.

K-Ness ... you are weird...

Sorry, I can't give you this.
I fully accepted the consequences of my doings that were, overall, very enjoyable.

You are going down a dangerous path.

I had to give my last Take 5 away to break the spell, only to have the friend I gave it to return and tell me how good it was... :confused:

Me and Christina Ricci have the same birthday....in case you missed it the other thread.

I love chocolate (just to stay on topic)

[EmperorNorton]

I didn't miss it, I just didn't know what to make of the information...


Christmas candy is on sale!
My favourite is a bar of marzipan and nougat covered in milk chocolate. Hmmm.

[ReZourceman]

It should either turn you on, or make you want to hug me, :rolleyes: :ermm:

I found some pre-packed marzipan in the cupboard so i melted chocolate and made my own chocolate covered marzipans tuther day.




Et voila thread revived.

[EmperorNorton]

Why would you want me to hug you? :confused:


Good idea about the marzipan. I think I'm gonna make a marzipan cake for my birthday.

[Socko]

Wow, I had my first Take 5 today, and holy ####...

they are sweet.


sooo good.

I want to go buy more right now...

[ReZourceman]

Yeah marzipan cakes are excellent

[EmperorNorton]

Are you trying to dodge my question?

[ReZourceman]

Are you trying to dodge my question?

No, I said marzipan cakes rock.

[KitsuShel]

What is Marzipan? Is it a Brit thing?

[Socko]

I thought it was a spainish thing.

never had it before.

you can do a lot with it.

[EmperorNorton]

You don't know marzipan?
What is wrong with you people?

My dictionary suggests these other names:
marchpane
almond paste

Does that ring a bell?

[ReZourceman]

What is Marzipan?

:eek:

[venarnage]

What is Marzipan? DON'T YOU WATCH HOMESTARRUNNER?



j.k. It's kinda like a crazy type of candy. CRAZY!

[KitsuShel]

:eek:
Ok, well, can you describe it?

[EmperorNorton]

Ok, well, can you describe it?

It is soft, yellowish-white and made from almonds, sugar and a little essence of roses.

[ReZourceman]

Basically a sweet almond (kind of) tasting chewy nice thing....goes on cakes usually.

And the texture is really nice and its mmmmm.
