I love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, Reese's pieces, not so much.

Quarters are too hard and silvery, :-O

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

I wonder if this is still relevant?    We gave out Twix, Snickers and Milky Way.  Oddly enough, those are my wife's favorite candies!   She bought candy while I was out of town!

I dunno. This list puts candy corn much too high:

For me, the mini Reese's are the best of the Reese's options. 

Twix & Butterfinger are not top-10

Candy Corn should be dead last. YUCK!!!

Those are the exact three I buy every year, just in case there are any left over.  Then I hate myself for eating candy.  Although there's good nutrition in the peanut butter cups.

Butterfingers were my favorite but when they changed the recipe, it fell down the list.    My preference is Reese Cups, 3 Musketeers and Snickers.

Yeah what's the deal here? About to do some Internet sleuthing.

favicon-114x114.png Petition · Bring Back The Original Butterfinger Recipe · Change.org

January 2018, a date which lives in infamy within the hearts of candy lovers all around the world. What is so special about this date you might ask, well it is the date that saw the candy making giant Nestle being...

The brand cut out some of the old ingredients, including TBHQ and hyrdogenated oils. Butterfinger notes that the improvements to the recipe come as a result of research on consumers' taste and texture preferences. "We want to wow fans and excite anyone who's been intrigued by Butterfinger's one-of-a-kind taste and texture," a press release says. "Based on early trials of the new product, the reactions have been overwhelmingly positive."

Angry Butterfinger fans slam the candy bar's new recipe as 'trash' and 'nasty'

Furious fans are complaining that the revamped version of the candy bar is disgusting, after Butterfinger rolled out a new recipe earlier this year.

I would need to categorize my list based upon type. Chocolate/nut (e.g., Reese’s) list and then a fruity/sugar list (e.g., skittles).

NO fruity sugar.  Chocolate is king!

One of us is overseas trying to solve climate change.  The rest of us are debating candy.  Only joking 'cause I'm among the latter.

"Candy change" is real...
