Serious Post: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups objectively taste better when in the shape of a pumpkin or Christmas tree. My hypothesis is that it is because the shapes result in a higher peanut butter to chocolate ratio.

Obviously haribo sours and reeses chocolates are their respective top tier candies. I will also inhale these with no hesitation  Sweetarts are better, but I'm not getting an excessive amount of sweetarts this time of year. Also pulparindos are great.

 Candy Sticks are the greatest candy ever devised, and no one will ever convince me otherwise.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Serious Post: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups objectively taste better when in the shape of a pumpkin or Christmas tree. This is a tested and true hypothesis. Everyone knows this. I break down candy into two categories. You have the sugary sweets, and then you have the chocolate/rich candies. Reese's pumpkins are the GOAT and my preferred choice of bussing unnecessary calories into my goon body. The most perfect junk food is not too far off from the OP, but the big chewy nerds.  I will eat these until my teeth hurt.

If you want infinite snacking, you have to have the three junk food groups: chocolate, sweet/sour candies, and something salty like chips. You can switch between them in any order when you think you're done with one and the effects of one will make the other two seem more appealing. Great if you need to ingest tens of thousands of calories for some reason

The Take 5 is the ideal chocolate and I’m sad they didn’t exist when I was of age for Trick or Treat. Back then, it was Kit Kats and Reeces Peanut Butter Cups.

I can't stand orange cream/dreamsicle flavored stuff. When I was a kid, like 5-6 years old, some kid at the lunch table ate a bunch of dreamsicle ice cream and proceeded to vomit everywhere. Which then caused all the other kids, myself included, to get sick. Now I associate the scent orange cream with that memory

old people candy that you are annoyed to receive until you eat it and remember that it's actually really good     (assuming those dark ones are licorice flavored. if they're grape then ignore the X's.)

Pez owns, especially if you're in the mood for a "I need a sugar injection stat" kind of candy. The Pez factory is cool af too. It's impossible to get that last Pez in without feeling like the thing is going to explode in your hand like a grenade My better half does not like sugary candies (incomprehensible to me) but has a singleminded devotion to these, which I remember getting at Halloween as a kid:

Then they taste like blood and anger and I don't like them anymore for the rest of my life.

My brain is short circuiting at the question, and brought up Ring Pops, so I suppose that will have to do. Really, any candy that purports itself to be fruit flavored in some way.
