Iâve always loved licorice, although Iâm not partial to the cheap US stuff now that Iâve tried real licorice from other places. The really wonderful thing about allsorts, though, is that you get a variety of flavors. Maybe a lot of people donât like licorice alone, but it seems pretty popular as a flavor that plays well with others.
Didnât vote for it, but my wife is somehow convinced that I love candy corn â the fact that I actually eat the big bag/tub that she gets me every year doesnât help my case when I tell her that I donât really care for it all that muchâŚ
Damn you poor impulse control! (and depression-era-parents that instilled âdonât let it go to wasteâ into my noggin).
Strongly disagree with you there. A lot of cheap chocolates are waxy (US) or chalky (central America). I have tried some chocolate candies from Europe and Asia also. I canât even rate Toblerone in the worst 50%, there is so much filler pseudo-chocolate out there. The dark Toblerone in the black package I do rather enjoy, I wish more places around here offered this variety.
Nothing says âI forgot to buy any vacation chocolates for the officeâ like Toblerone does.
But itâs still a million times better than anything Hersheyâs have ever made. Mind you, diarrhoea is a million times better than anything Hersheyâs have ever made, so perhaps thatâs not saying much.
Then you may certainly have my share, I give it to you with glee!
Iâm your fuckleberry.
I love the stuff, when reasonably fresh (<18 months old) and made by the right company.
And the pumpkin-shaped things made outta candy-corn essence are damn good, too.
We go through this every year, Rob. My heels are dug in on this.
Calumny. Necco wafers taste like unsweetened sidewalk chalk. Iâve used them as valve shims on a Jaguar 4.2L straight-six engine. Once theyâve been soaked in 30-weight and broken in for 1,000 miles or so, I find they slide down the throat easier.
I suspect my diarrhea is worse than yours. Just sayinâ, Iâll swallow actual Hersheyâs over Hershey Squirts any day of the week.
With a smile. A big, brown, goopy, leaking smile.
It broke my heart when Hershey bought Cadbury. Not only did I prefer Cadbury, but not long before the takeover they had some fantastic commercials, like this one:
In the states Panda Licorice seems pretty real â at least, itâs flavored with botanicals (although I think itâs most anise, as opposed to, well, licorice).
Donât matter to me, Iâm giggling like a fool over here.
Oh, yeah. Good licorice is awesome.
For the win. (But this stuff is from New Zealand.)
I will trade anyone my Snickers, Mounds, Twix, or toffee chews for your Gummi (Haribo, preferably), Tangy Taffy, Now & Laters, Crunch, or Switzerâs Cherry Bites.
I will also trade my (corner) icing for your cake. Even the roses.
Season/holiday-appropriate, linked from a site called âHi, Iâm Lizâ, and a raison/raisin punâŚyou have outdone yourself, sir!!!
You missed oneâŚ
Granted, you have to read between the lines: He was out trick or treating with his cousin :trollface:
I LOVE CANDY CORN!!! Screw you @Beschizza
