    The Candy Thread.

    08-30-2012 03:24 PM #1
    Did not see one of these around but figured I should make one. I work for a candy company so all I do all day is order candy and find new candy.

    Whats your favorite candy?
    Do you have any candy related questions?

    We just received in 2 pallets worth of giant reeses peanut butter cups.
    each package has 2 1/2lb reeses cups!

    I <3 candy!!! I used to be a bad addict. easily a few pounds a week right when I got out of basic training. I cut down on candy though to I could increase my bacon consumption

    I make ...

    Buckeyes: http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...light=buckeyes

    English toffee: http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...English-Toffee

    and Swedish toffee, also in the English toffee thread.

    Buckeyes are like Reese's. English toffee : Heath Bar. Swedish toffee : Tootsie Roll. Only better.

    My first attempt at honeycomb candy was like a failed grammar school volcano science experiment.

    We are 9 days away from getting the first shipment of our new 1lb snickers bars! It is a single 1lb snickers bar, let me see if I can get a picture of the sample one we have at the office.

    I don't eat a lot of candy but when I get a craving it's usually pretty bad!

    It's hard for me to pick a favorite but it just may be 3 Musketeers.

    This will probably sound snobbish, but IMHO there's "junk" candy, and there's quality confections...

    Preferences:
    Lindt 70%, 85%, orange, white, chile,

    I'm addicted to it, and need a daily dose of 85%.

    If you don't have a store in NYC I would highly recommend opening one there. All my cousins and friends buy candy all the time. I'm like candy but never have it anymore. I like my teeth straight, white, and cavity free lol but when I was a kid I use to get cry baby's from the local ice cream truck.

    OMG giant kit kat....... break for hours!


    i love candy and need to be VERY careful. i could eat myself diabetic within a week.

    favs

    Sugar: Nerds & SweeTarts. Love Sour Patch too, but i can't eat too many or my teeth ache.

    Chocolate: any midgrade or better, to be honest. i really like the Take-5 bars and Chunky Bars. anything cadbury, dove, lindt, or european.

    i have a problem.....
    I'm always right. The sooner you realize this, the easier things will be.

    (VW)'s I've retired: '69 Type 2 Panel, '88 Scirocco 8v, '89 Scirocco 16v, '92 GTI 16v, '91 Jetta VR6, '00 Audi A4, '94 Passat Wagon, '59 Type 2 Single Cab,'67 Type 2 Double Cab...
