Oh and I also love Pop-Tarts. My favorite Pop-Tart flavors have got to be Cookies and Cream as well as Pumpkin Pie. I also love crushing Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts in to vanilla ice cream because it tastes so good. Pop-Tarts are great.

I'm a fan of all things sour. Wonka's Shock Tarts and also Sour Warheads are fantastic.

^^^ My kid's mom, who is from Canada, fell in love with Funyuns when we first met (they didn't have Funyuns in Canada at the time; I don't know if they do now or not). So after she visited me the first time, after she went back home I shipped her a U-Haul box stuffed with something like 20 giant-sized bags of Funyuns. I think she fed herself on those things for a month.

No offensive to our american friends but when i tried chocolate on my visit to America in 2005 it was HORRIBLE. The trouble with American 'candy' is that it is mass produced as u can get so that most of its ingredients are artificial - including chemicals, with a very low actual cocoa content- and therefore the horrible waxy taste I experienced with a Hershey bar. Yes admittedly more expensive but FAR finer and enjoyable, hell even healthier chocolate is stuff like the really tasty Green and Blacks bars u get in Tesco's in the UK. Even though I sometimes buy a single 100G Bar and it can last most of a week because I enjoy a few squares of it at a time so much and my appetite is appeased, there is no need to eat the whole bar at once. I was listening to a radio programme recently that argued that they should make chocolate more expensive so that people see it much more as a treat like it used to be. Its currently so cheap and mass produced that we eat it far too often and in too much amounts. We should enjoy fine things in moderation to keep them that way.

I also like Cookie Dough Bites. Whenever I'm at the dollar store I pick up like 3 boxes of them.

I didn't see them there, but if they have them, 100 Grand bars are a favorite of mine.

Skittles, Mike & Ikes and Reese's Cups are all great.
Damn addictive though. Especially anything with Reese's stamped on it.

Candybars:

Nutrageous
Almond Joy
Mounds
PayDay
Snickers
Baby Ruth
Charleston Chews

Others:

Reese's Pieces
Reese's Cups
Raisinettes
Peanut M&Ms
Peanut Brittle
Skittles

And if you like peanut butter there are taffy bites with peanut butter centers. I have no idea what they're called but they come in Bazooka Joe-like wrappers, either orange or black, and are hugely popular around Halloween.
