I like the caramel, but prefer the milk. But it's all delicious. I'd probably like the dark, but I always tend to prefer milk chcolate.
So, Wrigley's Double Mint chewing gum. I had a packet of this from America. I don't usually chew gum, and I really shouldn't too, with my teeth. But this gum was fab. Extremely minty, with these nice minty bits. The flavour lasted a long time.
After this, I got some Double Mint myself. And OMG, what's up with the DM we get here?! It's WEAK in comparison. And also, it has none of the bits. And, the weak flavour hardly lasted.

Basically I love anything chocolate it doesn't matter if its dark or milk chocolate as long as its good chocolate. When my uncle was alive he use to send us chocolate care packages from Germany oh it was so good. As for non chocolate items I do like skittles and starburst.
For halloween I buy a small amount of candy I like but mostly buy stuff I don't really like that way I know there will be some left to hand out to the tricker treaters.A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject. ~Winston Churchill

Another fun think about candy corn, you can push them up into your teeth to look like fangs! I don't much care for them though, like sjean says they're really just chunks of dried out frosting with a thin wax coat. The candy "pumpkins" are made of the same stuff.

Attention Keps!
Speaking of candied corn products, a friend from Japan not so long ago sent me a box of Sweet Corn Chocoball.
Chocoball is very similar to Pocky. In consists of a cookie-like centre (close to a malt ball but firmer) and is covered in chocolate--the chocolate coming in a wide varierty of flavours. Some of them quite bizarre but surprisingly good tasting. Like sweet corn.

I've heard there's a myth about candy corn that is similar to the one about fruit cakes.
There is a fixed supply - no one ever eats them, they just get recycled each year.
But it can't be true because I'm eating some candy corn right now and I do eat fruitcake as well.
I'm eating the kind of candy corn that combines brown, orange, yellow and white coloring.
I fnd it hard to get the bags with the pumpkins, etc.
Oh well, a little coffe with the corn and I shouldn't need any sleep until tomorrow night.

It's a Halloween tradition here in the states.
The best is the mix - candy corn along with little pumpkins and cornstalks...

Maybe more so b/c it is seasonal?Originally posted by Zero View PostAnother fun think about candy corn, you can push them up into your teeth to look like fangs!
