There are very few things I'm sure of.

But this I know. Almond M&M's are the best candy. If you read or hear anything else. Somebody is lying to you.  

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

100%.  It's my general rule for other treats, like ice cream, as well. Earthtones (choc/vanilla/caramel/ their variations) >>>>>> colors (fruits/sherbets, etc).

I would like to know if in their random matchups, a dime ever snuck past a quarter.  That's the only one in there where I think the answer would be entirely objective, but I'm still curious.

Candy corn is ok,  I'll eat it when its out.  People seem very passionate about it though ... its like the cilantro of sweets.

I've tried them.   Sorry, my taste buds would rather have raw almonds and peanut M&Ms.    I'm not in denial, I'm married and that's my wife's opinion!  😅

Depends on my mood/craving. Sometimes I want something fruity like starburst, skittles, tootsie frooties. Sometimes I want some choc/PB like Reese’s. Sometimes I want Oreos haha

Well if you eat enough candy corn you will almost surely create a rotten tooth that will need pulling, so that kind of makes sense.

I will have to say, fruity candies are not that good. They never taste as good as fresh fruit.

Some fresh Mike & Ikes or Swedish Fish are good from time to time.

KitKat, 3-Musketeers, Dark Hershey bar, Reese's Peanut butter cups. In no particular order.

Thank God for chocolate. No shrinks needed. Heaven can wait. Dentists rejoice!

I'm not close-minded. Of course, I will listen to other people's opinion. All I'm saying is I'm right and there's nothing you can say to change my mind. .... But again, I'm not close-minded.

Milk Duds

These are great for removing loose fillings!

Almond M&Ms are excellent, but the classic Peanut ones are good too!

Giving out Candy Corn is a good way to ensure your house will get egged.

Nah I think some are good. 
 

They never taste the same is how I would put it. Generally, I prefer fresh fruit, too, e.g., I’d rather have fresh strawberries, a banana, some watermelon, blueberries, and so on.
 

But one example for me personally are cherries. Do not like cherries. Never have liked them, but I like cherry-flavored fruit candy. Tends to taste more like “fruit punch” or something. Hard to describe because fruit candy never tastes like the actual fruit. 
 

Also if the fruit is out of season, but still fresh, then I think the candy variant wins out at least in terms of taste.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
