    agree

    IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR!


    BUTTERFINGER!!!! (OLD FORMULA) So sad. I have been craving original formula butterfingers for the past year. I wish they'd bring them back. The new ones are just not as good.

    I really like chick o sticks now because they taste like the inside of the old formula butterfinger.

    agree

    I agree too. I like reeses, but I have to be in the mood for them. I however, do LOVE the gritty dry consistency of the peanut butter though and prefer that filling to real peanut butter filling in homemade cups.

    I can't believe I didn't answer this last year!

    Snickers
    Milky way
    Mini baby ruths (I'm so glad these exist)
    I can handle the new butterfingers if I have to
    Crunch
    Reeses pb cups (cold)

    Fun Halloween candy story. Maybe last April I was at my boss' house waiting for a service guy (nothing inappropriate and I was fine doing this) to show up.

    I get back to the office and he (ohhhhhkay, this probably won't go over well) said "you probably saw the big bowl of change". And I said "no but I sure saw the big bag of kitkats"!

    Chocolate over money for this girl. :)

    I truly am not a candy person anymore, and don't really like eating it, I do like M&Ms and Heath bars but would rather spend calories on a piece of extra dark dairy free chocolate.

    The Reese Cup shapes (pumpkin, Christmas tree, etc.) are infinitely better but I still love regular Reese Cups.

    My FAVORITE is Reese Pieces.

    Here's my deal with Crunch bars...I like the full size ones because they are thin, as they should be. But, the little "fun size" ones you get for Halloween are thick and chunky, so the ratio is all wrong.

    I like both - Yum!

    Forgot to add - Halloween is the time of year for Caramel Tootsie Pops. Hard to find though.

    Ok, not to hijack, but we're all basically listing candy you can get anytime.

    How about favorite halloween themed candy? Which, of course, includes candy you can buy anytime...just shaped like a pumpkin or ghost or whatever? :)
