I think I have too

Mary Janes Licorice and Circus Peanuts are horrible.

I like Necis but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy them. Candy Corn, eh not horrible just nothing special like Tootsie Rolls.

But only fresh ones. I once lost a filling with a hard and stale Tootsie Roll.
Anything chocolate works for me. And red Twizzlers. Otherwise bleh.

I can really pig out on Lindt truffles, which always seem to be on sale at the Lindt store in town.

They seem to be having a Halloween sale on truffles this week. I have to stay away from that mall.

The night the grandkids went trick or treating she told me she can buy them by the bashful for a little nothing. But besides I don't care for them I'm also diabetic.
