Hows my homies training
going? Whaa? Hey! What
are you doing Ronald?

I gently caress with Mike & Ike’s still, but the balance was perfect before Strawberry was introduced. Wish I could find boxes with just the four other flavors.

there was a brief period in elementary school where Hot Tamales and Fire Jolly Ranchers were used as currency, much like cigarettes in prison.

I prefer Lemonheads these days. and all the other flavors of 'heads (now no longer racist!)

Mike % Ike is ok, but it's the same kind of thing as spicy cinnamon candy that isn't actually cinnamon flavored.

I will eat a Mike and/or Ike any day of the week but I prefer actual licorice. It is a unique flavor and very pungent.

I like the cups with the mini Reese's pieces in them

try the outrageous bar. it's reeses peanut butter + reeses pieces + carmel inside a chocolate candy bar.

has anyone tried the reeses with potato chips inside? sounds bad, like I do not trust a potato chip inside a reeses cup to not be a soggy oily salt crumb

Are you trying to say that jelly beans and chips can be really bad or really good, but Mike and Ike’s and pringles are a consistent mediocre?

I don’t actually know that there are chips bad enough to be worse than Pringles but I’m trying to understand the analogy.

the outrageous bar is absurdly good, we were giving away minis for halloween and i probably ate 20 of them

reese's with potato chips has kinda small chip shards dispersed throughout so it's kinda in that middle ground between crunchy and gritty. not bad, but not better than just a regular ol' reese's pb cup

the divine geometry of the grandma candy dish concentrates orgone energy in the candy, making it a source of exquisite potence. but you must be cautious. i had an old cobalt blue glass depression era candy dish that i took from my grandma's house after she died. my cat knocked it off a shelf and the whole apartment was beset by howling ghosts for a month afterwards.

I prefer stale candy a lot of the time. If it’s gummy, jelly, juju, starburst, Laffy taffy, now & later or anything chewy like that, it’s even better when it’s stale: lots of tactile mandible movement and sugar stuck to your teeth and the experience lasts a lot longer too

if you get the malted milk balls from like the bulk section of a Sprouts or equivalent, with 1/2" coating of real milk chocolate instead of the melty trash they use on Whoppers (note: I also enjoy Whoppers) it's like a revelation. I love real malted milk balls so much

also check out nuts.com for a bunch of different varieties of malt balls
