You'd puke if you tried them. They're disgusting and they leave a really bad taste in your mouth.

Circus Peanuts are right up there with those 2" marshmellow type eggs for Easter. I shudder just thinking of them!

No, you're not alone. I love Necco wafers -- probably my favorite candy. They are awesome, whatever the haters say.

And I love Smarties, too.

Agree on the Circus Peanuts, but if you're talking about the good (as in Russell Stouffer or another "name brand) chocolate cover marshmallow eggs, I love those! Love Neccos, too, when I'm in the mood - or happen to see them. They're almost never around.

No, these aren't chocolate anything. They're either purple, orange or another color. The marshmallow is kind of hard. They're a bulk candy type item.

WORD on the Circus Peanuts! There's other candy I don't like -- many that are named in this thread -- but they don't gross me out. I can't even stand to be in the room when someone else is eating Circus Peanuts.

I HATE Circus Peanuts, anything Gummy or Fruit-flavored chewiness (except for a few flavors of Jelly Bellies!), dark chocolate, anything with Peanuts/Peanut butter, black licorice, Mary Jane/Bit O' Honey/Sugar Daddies (any of those old lady candies that kill your teeth).

I LOVE Milky Way (#1), 100 Grand, Twix, Milk Duds (my teeth don't like them, though!), Caramel Bullies (can't find the original anymore). I do like Candy Corn and Smarties, but I have to be in the mood for them.

I like Neccos and it's probably more nostalgic than for any other reason. My uncle used to buy them for me when I was little. We would walk down to a little store for them.

A handful of popcorn is kind of weird. But I also lived between the family of dentists who would give us toothbrushes, and the assumed-to-be drug dealers who would take Polaroid pictures of us with a Halloween border for us to take home.

You've actually SEEN someone eating Circus Peanuts?! I'm not sure I've ever witnessed such a thing.


I actually just looked up Necco Wafers, and I don't think they're nearly as awful as some of the other kinds of candy mentioned here. I would GLADLY eat those over Candy Corn or Circus Peanuts.. or whatever the hell those edible fangs are called...

One of my college friends had a whole closet stuffed with junk food. He was, of course, one of those super-skinny dudes who can eat a whole large pizza by himself. Plus jumbo bags of Doritos and yes, Circus Peanuts.

Perhaps you are thinking of Fizzies, not Smarties? Fizzies are more sour than Smarties and have the same shape, but are Fall colors instead of Smarties Spring colors.

Neccos are only good for tossing into toll baskets on the highway.
