1. I'm sorry - I had to go with 'Peeps' because ..
they literally did make me vomit one time.

And I love those Halloween taffy thingies!

3. I had some chinese candy once.
I think the Chinese and I will agree to disagree about what candy really is.

7. They are ostensibly edible.
If you eat them, you will notice they are lightly sweetened...



Waxalicious!

6. Cookie Dough Bites are an honorable mention.
Edited on Tue Mar-01-05 02:19 AM by UdoKier



For a.) being nauseatingly sweet enough to cause an insulin coma

b.)having "cookie dough", only it's really just sugary dry flour with some fat in it and little bits of chocolateoid particles.

:puke:


BTW, I actually like candy corn. In small doses. Don't know why so many people hate them.

37. Ugh... bad memories
I used to have to "upsale" those things as a promotional gimmick whenever I was working at a movie theatre. I wouldn't mind never having to see a box of those again! I don't really mind how they taste, but they aren't one of my favorites.

I'm surprised circus peanuts didn't run away with this contest. I'm one of those rare people who is actually neutral on the circus peanut. I thought everyone either loved or (in the case of most people) hated them!

I gave a vote to the wax lips.

32. Yes. It's kinda like licorice flavored vodka.
Both the Greeks and the Turks love it and usually cut it with water, which instantly gives it a white, milky color. I prefer it straight, but it's kinda gross (to me). I prefer something like cachaça (Brazilian sugarcane liquor) made into a caipirinha (delicious mixed drink that'll knock you out). :)

38. I am surprised that black jelly beans did not make the list
They are widely despised, although they are my favorite. Chris Rock said on SNL that "the man" was the one who made "the BLACK jelly bean the worst tasting candy of all time".

There was an easter candy, like a marshmallow peanut-shape that I remember as being pretty heinous.

Actually, the jelly belly candies that Reagan used to eat were pretty bad, kinda like the "every flavor beans" of Harry Potter. There were so many flavors that if you had half a dozen of them, four of the flavors would be bad.

29. Other: horehound
Black licorice is pretty close, though. Or antyhing with fake cherry flavor or fake grape flavor -- they both taste like children's liquid medications. Icky.
