Boo! Kill the candy corns!

Kara said:On October 1st, I walk down to the store and buy a crapload of candy corn. By October 20th, I'm so sick of it that I don't want to see it again for a year. Someday, I'll make it to Halloween before sickening myself completely. It's good to have goals.

So this post is for Kara.... she said she likes candy corn or that she eats them! Ewwww. I think it's the worst candy of all times!

I think this picture (art work by Terry at Bent Objects-which, if you haven't visited his Blog, YOU MUST) sums up the reason why candy corn exists!
Now I am thinking of all the other gross candy out there... Oh I know.... PEEPS! What else, hymn...?

Black licorice is pretty bad.

Logzie said...

I'm with you on the Peeps! I hate anything marshmellow anyway. Yuck!

Gorilla Bananas said...

I've never heard of this. Do people really put a sugar coating on corn?

Um Naief said...

no, it's not real corn. just sugar candy... and i love it!!! :)

i also love black licorice... it's my favorite!!!

i hate those marshmellow bunnies at easter... are those peeps? i hate them. oh yeah, i also hate those other egg things for easter... i think they're hard and nothing but sugar inside.

hmmmm.... i like a lot of candy, so can't think of any that i particularly hate.

I love proper soft marshmallow, but hate the cheaper,chewy stuff - they are called Flumps over here.

Also any sour flavoured chews - they taste like vomit!

Jahooni said...

Welcome.. Lightning Bug!I still crack up when seeing your name! I am with ya on black licorice but my sister Um Naeif LOVES IT! Yuk!

I am with you too Logziella on anything marshmellow... I only like marshmellows in hot coco or when camping we make smores or just plain ones over the fire...

Gorilla Bananas,

do they even have candy in the jungle ;-)

Dear sister... our fav is Bit-o-Honey... YUM YUM YUM.

Rock Chef,
marshmellows.. YUK! sour chews are gross I agree.

ew... and CANDY NECLACES. Gross Gross!

Um Naief said...

you use to eat candy necklaces all the time when you were small....

hmmmm... wonder if that means something! ;)

oh yeah... i forgot to mention the bit o honey... the fact that you opened one of the bags and had the nerve to take some! next time... none of that!

kara said...

THAT is fantastic. Not only are candy corn delicious AND nutritious...but they perform dramatic sequences like nobody's business. Is there a more perfect food? I think now.

And tell goranas that I'll send his ass some candy corn. That's a damn shame, that is.

kara said...

NOT...I think NOT.

Stupid keyboards.

Um Naief said...

you know w/ candy corn... i love to bite off the top, then the bottom and save the middle for last. is that weird?

no difference in taste... i don't think... but there's just something about savoring the flavor... ummmmm....

candy corn rocks!

Crabby said...

You have candy corn addiction too? I love that stuff. So does Milkmaid! Thanks for the visit! Sorry I couldn't get into blogger all day to welcome you sooner.

PS. that caramel apple dip is good stuff too. My thighs love it.

Jahooni said...

Hi Crabby Lady.....

You should read my post again... I don't have the addiction to candy corn, it's Kara and Um Naief!

I AGAIN HATE CANDY CORN!

AmitL said...

Hi,Jahooni..came across your site via the link in Olivia's blog...I had some good laughs at some of the pics...tks..will be back to read more of the archives.:)

Candy corn..grin at the idea of 'sickening myself completely.It's good to have goals'.

Cheers.

How can people NOT like marshmallow.

Logzie said...

I am with you Jahooni as far as how I can tolerate a marshmellow...only in hot cocoa or roasted in a campfire and mixed up in rice krispie treats but I'll tell you...the only thing worse than a marshmellow would be that FAKE marshmellow cream or paste crap that some people dare to try and make rice krispie treats with...DOUBLE YUCK!!

Um Naief said...

ok, i like that marshmellow stuff you buy in a jar. i'll put that in my hot cocoa and it's yummy!!!! but haven't done it for ages. but you know, the thing w/ that is that i always eat it all first and then have nothing left... so usually wind up putting more in the cocoa... ;)

i love marshmellow... but not to just sit and eat. rice krispie treats are a fav and roasting them on an open flame.... ummmm... so so good.

Jahooni said...

Guess I should talk about candy or food more often!! LOL

Maybe I'll just leave this post up for a long time and we can go on and on and on...

You know those Easter Bunnies that are tall and made out of chocolate, well I used to get one in my Easter basket every year as a child and I NEVER ATE A SINGLE ONE! They are yuk yuk yuk and thankfully I was a better Mommy and never put one in my daughter's basket!

Logzie said...

I think you have made us all hungry Jahooni! Ha!

Then your next post is about loosing weight...you're confusing me...LOL!!!!!! :0)

P.S.-sorry Um Naief...if I would have known you liked the marshmellow creme stuff, I wouldn't have been so expressive against it. :0)

Rock Chef said...

Logzie - I have just realised what marshmallow stuff you are talking about! I had a jar of that several years ago and it was totally disgusting. I binned it in the end.
