Peep Show

[shereads]

I saw chocolate Peeps here today

Those brown ones are supposed to be chocolate?

I thought they'd just outlived their shelf-life.

 

[The_Fool]

Yep.

Suddenly, I'm nostalgic for Malted Milk "Eggs." The ones with the thin candy shell.

If it was 11:40 am, not pm, I'd go find some right now!

24 hour Walmart....Only in America, baby....

Nearer than that: 24-hour Walgreens.

Fortunately, I am car-less. It's kept me from any number of impulse purchases.

Good God. My second most hated Easter candy. Robin's eggs. All the more revolting because...well...never mind.

Or were the Robin's eggs the bubblegum ones?

Sher....impulsive....???


I think I am channelling Jenny....

 

[tickledkitty]

No, wait. There's something worse. Remember the ones that were harder candy on the outside and marshmallow on the inside? Kind of like Circus Peanuts consistency, but white? *gags*

OMG!

I do remember those....
and your absolutely right - GAGS horribly, shuddering as the taste rolls through my sensory memory like acid on an open wound

Circus peanuts. *retch*

Those are the most disgusting candies ever made.

A bud and I ate a big sack of 'em once while building a tree house.

Projectile vomiting from 12 feet up is rather impressive.

*Looks at folks retching in bemused fashion, knowing nothing of the horors of which they speak*

Fond memories of jelly babies that stuck together in the heat and swapped colours; fruit tingles and LollyGobbleBlissBombs...

Gummy Bears.

Gummy Worms.

Sour worms (I still pinch 'em from my kids)

Sour Bites.

They'd make a statues' lips pucker.

all things sour.... yummmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Oh and candied crab apples just rock

they were one of only 2 candies I can recall from my childhood as being a terrible disappointment: nauseatingly sweet with a correspondingly disgusting texture. (The other was Candy Corn.).

Oh! {{{HUGS}}} I've...I've hated candy corn for so long! Since the first time I ever tasted it and I...I thought I was the only one!

Thank you for being brave enough to admit that. I don't feel so alone any more

There are many of us. I think it was Dr. Mabeuse who first came out of the Candy Corn haters closet here in the AH. There was a thread about it.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

I love candy corn. I can't eat more than a handful in one sitting, but that stuff is awesome.

Don't like peeps, but just about everyone else that I know does.

I don't like 'em. Probably means you don't know me. *sigh*

Which ward are you in?

 

[shereads]

Zoot coming out of the closet. Whoa.

I pulled him right back in.

 

[Guest]

I pulled him right back in.

Whew!

I got kind of scared for a second, there.

Figured he'd be writing in an entirely new style.
