    Yes, thankfully the 2 lb box floating around my office has been eaten. And mostly not by me.

    Pure heaven! It's a California based candy company founded in the '20s.

    ha ha, that's surprising how?? That's under what I log them as, so cool. I figured about 100-125 each.

    I miss Sees Candy! I'm a displaced Californian and I haven't had See's candy in at least 12 years. =(

    That's not that bad. :) 3 of the soft centers is 170 (or is it two?) not a biggie.

    Who goes into the store just to get the sample? My son tried to tell me I can't have it and he refused the sample. Who IS this kid?! I ate mine despite him trying to make me feel guilty (and logged it). I buy my Grandma a box every year for Christmas and her birthday.

    One of life's mysteries is how a two-pound box of candy can make a woman gain five pounds.

    80 cals - may be it's a lot but so worth it.

    Try moving to somewhere where they don't sell See's and rely on the generosity of friends and family who travel through the US to bring you some may be twice a year. That should keep your cal intake in check.

    See's rocks!! (esp dark chocolate almond clusters, not so keen on the soft centres)
