What was your favorite candy as a child (or now)?

I liked those malted milk balls (can’t think of the name).

What was (is) yours?

I loved those caramels with the white centers, the ones that felt cool on your tongue.

Cow tails? Those are my brother’s favorite, too!

Mine is salted dark chocolate. Or chili dark chocolate.

@kindness, you’re thinking of Whoppers; I loved those as a kid, not as much now. Now I’m more about Heath bars and peanut M&M’s, when I do eat candy, which isn’t that often anymore. I want to try those new Reese’s Big Cups with Reese’s Pieces mixed into the peanut butter. Yep, I could see that being good.

@scoobasteve said they are called Whoppers.

That reminds of a candy called Goobers. :slight_smile:

Thought I was pretty cool with the cigarette bubble gum that you could blow air through it and powdered sugar would come out in a puff.

Have to go with pastila as did not have much in the way of store candy or sweets

I loved those! When I could get them. My mom never knowingly let me have then.

I loved Lik Em Aid, something like that? The sugar stick you dipped into pouches of flavored sugar?

When I was a kid probably kit kat bars or gummy bears. Now, crunch bars.
