What is your favourite Candy?
Now, I thought I would try one of these prompts and frankly I’m not sure I’m even doing this correctly, but I found this question interesting. I haven’t thought about this in a long time and as an adult, I have to say I don’t really eat candy much any more.
Though I thought about what I used to eat as a kid, which like all kids, was way too much candy. But how could you not? Where we lived back in the 90’s, we could go to the corner store, get a little plastic bag (by little I mean the size you use to put fruits and veggies at the grocery store now) and fill it up for 75 cents. Tops one dollar if you had some specialty candies in there. Crazy how times have changed huh?
But back then there were so many different candies: hot lips, cinnamon hearts, gummy bears, Willy Wonka fun dip, gummy coca-cola bottles, gummy worms, sour keys, licorice of all flavours, chocolate cigarettes (Yes, that was a thing! They would come in little fake cigarette packs), Ring pops, Gobstoppers, Hubba Bubba gum, etc. The list is honestly endless.
But now, if I had to pick a candy, it would be Hot Lips. For those who have no idea what those are let me explain. They are a chewy texture with a spicy cinnamon flavour, the candy is red and in the shape of pouty lips. They are absolutely delicious! And to be fair, you only need a few before you call it quits, which makes them a bit of a bonus for me.
I believe they are a Canadian candy, but if you ever get a chance try them! I mean if you like cinnamon that is.
Is there any candy specific to your country? What’s your favourite candy? I would love to know!
Ciao!
