Okay - this is a little off topic too. Does anyone remember ZOTS?They were this hard candy with fizzy stuff in the middle and came in strips of five. I used to love those but everytime I ask someone about them they look at me like I'm on crack.

I want a circus peanut. Or maybe two. I don't want to buy a whole bag though, because my body can't handle that much sugar.

They have those cute little snack size bags of Hershey's Kisses - why can't they do that with circus peanuts??

I remember them!

There are actually 2 kinds- Zots Bombs and just Zots
I've found them on the web at:

I like candy corn for halloween and twix anytime :) I am just a chocolate freak though so I'm not too picky when it comes to this food group!

AOPiLaLa---I just carved a pumpkin with a friend and we roasted the pumpkin seeds. Yum :D

Autumn Mix
 

Just saw it at the Target checkout line..wonder why, lol


It's got the candy corn, pumpkins..can't remember what else. I know in the past I think they had pilgrims or some other type of people, but I guess it would be politically incorrect now..no matter, they all tasted the same, lol!:rolleyes:

This is going to sound kind of weird...

If you put your face in a bag of Halloween candy and breathe deeply, the candy has a distinctive smell that'll bring back wonderful memories. If you do the same with a bag of Easter candy, the smell will also bring on nostalgia but it's a very different scent! Duh- because of the different types of candy, of course, but I just wanted to point it out if no one had tried it!

lol, carnation, are you telling us to stick our faces in a bag?? my mother always told me i could suffocate if i did that ;)

I knew I was going to come off sounding weird on that! No, I just meant briefly put your face in the opening and take a whiff!

lol, perhaps carnation is trying to get rid of some "special" GCers :D

Lol that was totaly random :) Just kidding. I am reading about candy than beer is mentioned. :D I don't think it is anything special either, kind of groos compared to the other dark beers.

Re: Fun Sized?
 

Yeah good question. To me fun size is a king sized candy bar.

OK...that is hysterical. My mom is a teacher...so I can relate. On the beer note, Sierra Nevada, hands down...RE-PUL-SIVE....sorry for all the ale lovers out there. Has anyone ever had Black Star? THAT, on the other hand is, Faaabulous.

Oh yeah...candy was the topic, huh? So I am all about the sweet tarts and candy corn. The worst is when you get those generic little hard candies that you know came in the 10 pound for 4.99 bag. I miss trick-or-treating...thank god for chapter meeting and the 10000 cookies we get every week. Thank god for my metabolism....I swear I eat my body weight in food every day. Haha

First of all - Sierra Nevada is a solid beer - not as good as Guinness or Blue Moon, but a very good beer.

Now on the candy/Halloween note - first off, anything with peanut butter in it would be my favorites - used to eat those by the bag fulls when i was a chubby little kid. The best was, when I was really young, my grandma's neighbor gave my little sister and I toys - like stuffed animals, GI Joes, He-Men (greatest toys ever by the way, and He-Man the show was awsome), that kinda stuff. Really spoiled us when I come to think of it.

anything chocolate and oh oh, the Doves special ones, I forgot what they are called but they come in tiny red or blue wrappings and they have quotes within the wrapper. emm emm good, like campbell soup it's da bomb !!!!!

I love all candy around halloween time. My favs would probably be Almond Joys and 3 Musketeers.
