    I have a huge sweet-tooth tonight. I don't know why.

    Yesterday I got a little nostalgic and bought some Pop-Rocks and Bottle Caps and Gobstoppers.

    Did you have favorite candy as a kid?

    And what were you less than happy to see your grandma buy you...perhaps the dreaded Necco!

    Yes I have my favourite childhood candy but first, what the hell is Necco?

    My favorites are almond joy, and skittles.

    On the yucky list, candy corn and circus peanuts.

    Just make sure you don't drink soda when you eat the pop rocks. It's bye-bye stomach if you do that.

    M n Ms were and are my favorites. You know what they say about the green ones .....

    Necco is responsible for all chalk flavored candy.

    They make the valentine hearts with "Love Me" and "Let's Be Friends" on them.

    If you like you can read all about Necco here: http://www.necco.com/Index.html

    But in my original post this candy was exactly what I was refering to:

    Actually I purposely bought a Coke to test out the Pop Rocks (I had NEVER done that before). I was feeling might adventerous! It makes them snap faster...but sadly my head did not explode, nor did my stomach...drat it all!

    Good point wednesday--I never thought of that...

    Maybe it's all my repressed angst that I never got to trick-or-treat and collect candy coming forward in my subconcious--hee hee!

    Chocolate - of any kind, but especially BELGIAN. (fav bars are Mars bar, Coffee Crisp, and Mr. Big)

    And black licorice, mmmmmm.

    As for dislikes - anything sour.

    Joanna: Thunder loves the choclate necco's. I love choclate oranges in fact any chocolate paired with raspberry or orange usually has me. Of late I can't eat much sweet stuff I drink water and watch how much I eat in doing this the sugar is overpowering...not sure if I like that or not.
