Chocolate v. Fruit? In a Candy Contest? This is not a fair fight.
At weddings, my Aunts would poke me in the ribs and cackle "You're next!". They stopped when I started doing the same to them at funerals.

Have never tasted any of those.

when do we get to sour skittles? Seems like the kids go bonkers over Now and Laters, personally I make sure there are small snickers, safety pops and Russian candies in the mix just incase there are left overs.

What are Russian candies??

Jolly Ranchers are great, but Tootsie Rolls are even better.

Babies are better than Sugar Daddies. Less commitment.

Shroom,

In a store lastr week there was a dish of candy. A small bag of ssour skittles was on top. I jump on it, mentionning to the salesperson that I had not seen those in ages. She replies, this bag must be for you then. I chew on them all afternoon. :)


That reminds me I have a few sour worm candy in the cupboard...

Since we are getting technical...

The level of sophistication for this thread is expanding... so I must ask:

:talk: What flavor Jolly Rancher? Certainly watermelon is great, however others (like the lemon-- yeech!) do not measure up, making Tootsie Rolls the favorite.

In what capacity is the Tootsie Roll being measured? Specifically, if we are talking about that GIANT Tootsie Roll/Log, than size certainly does matter. So, in that case, the Tootsie, again, would win.

However, for intensity of flavor and value perception, the flavor of the Jolly Rancher is favorable. On the contrary, chocolate does have it certain immeasurable benefits, so the Tootsie Roll may reign supreme.

Ohhh.... the heck with it! LEMON HEADS rule!! :D

Invention, my dear friends, is ninety-three percent perspiration, six percent electricity, four percent evaporation, and two percent butterscotch ripple

Watermelon Chiliboy??? BLEAH. I can't even stand to smell that stuff on someone's breath! As for Tootsie Rolls masquerading as chocolate, Ii'll choose a cherry JR over the ersatz chocolate in a Tootsie Roll any day.

Sugar free Jolly Ranchers aren't bad...but they don't make cinnamon and that was my favorite.

Tootsie roll doesn't make a sugar free.

Perhaps I should change my vote.
