4. Gotta be chocolate
God Tier: Snickers, Milky Way, Baby Ruth, Reeses Peanut Butter cups (but not Reeses Pieces. Those blow.)
Good Tier: Kit Kat, Twix, Milk Duds, Whoppers, 100Grand, Hershey's miniatures, M&Ms (NORMAL ONES! Plain or peanut. Not all this godawful coconutty weirdo crap!)

Payday is OK but it lacks in the chocolate department. But it's better than anything with coconut.
And there is a chocolate covered Payday but I've never seen it in Halloweeny fun size form.


Shit tier: Jolly Ranchers, DumDums, any type of fruit rolled up or not, Licorice.

12. They are fundamentalist religious "comic books" that are hilariously over the top....
A google search will instantly clear things up (as well as lead you to very funny parody sites of Chick tracts).

24. Me, too.
I just wish they wouldn't skimp on the peanut butter filling. Used to be lots more of it back when I was a kid.

The white, orange, and yellow version, not the version with the black base.

I bought 2 bags to give out to trick or treaters just so I can eat the leftovers.

19. Somebody used to make these banana flavored chews.
Kind of shaped like the skinny tootsie rolls. I could eat them all day. I haven't seen them for about 15 years though

Kind of hard to find them these days, but they seem to be a big hit with all the neighborhood kids.
