Yeah, so what are your favorite types of candy? I tend to like fruit flavored candies. I like Jolly Ranchers, Pixie Sticks, Starburst, Fruit Roll Ups, Gushers, etc. What do YOU like?
 
Everything sour. The more, the better.

I like these:

A few years back they stopped making Strawberry CreamSavers (LifeSavers) and that made me upset.

Still my favorite, hope they bring them back eventually.

Don't really eat candy, but those were the shiz.

Also, liked Baby Ruth, Snickers, Peanut M&Ms I guess the nut-based candies. Never really liked Reeses though. Hershey's chocolate bars once in awhile.
 
Back in the early 90s, when Gushers first came out, they were amazing. They came in this teardrop shape and were absolutely filled with the juicy goop in the middle. The grape flavor...oh damn it was good.



A few years in, they changed the shape, likely to be able to fill each one with less goop and save money. They were never the same after that. Nowadays, it's like they use a medical syringe to inject almost no juice inside of each one whatsoever and the flavors all suck.

Aw man I forgot about these. The orange ones were good too. Is there anything comparable to these on the market still?

Amazon reviews say this is as close as you'll find but it's not 100% accurate


Thankfully I still have a few at my desk at work I'm saving back for an ultra-rainy-day

Anything with chocolate and peanut butter or chocolate and mint. Trader Joe's makes some damn good PB cups.

If you like fruity candy OP you should try hi chews.

Whoppers. All day, every day

Sour Patch Kids runner-up
I used to love Whoppers, but I can't even look at them now without thinking of Die Hard Trilogy for PS1.

I had 2 big containers of Whoppers and would just inhale them while playing the game and I ate too many and got sick. Now I just associate them all with nausea all in one big lump.
 
These are probably my favorite things still being made today:

The problem is that it's hard to not just eat the entire box. Also they're cheap.
