    So, what's your top. Your one candy which you love above all others? The one that sits within the back of your mind and nags at you to get it?


    For me it's a candy called English Butter Toffee/Butter Nut Crunch. :drool:

    Um ,being now a daibetic. I love more than ever, no, I crave chocolate covered cashews, but in good chocolate. The wife got me some last year that the chocolat was very poor. I love chocolate and would do anything for some good milk chocolate covered cashews. Oh and summerteeth, I know of no coal dust but the real thing, but still any bird that says they like coal dust just moved to #1 on the hotness list ;)

    I hate you, I totally need to go and visit an English imported sweets shop this weekend now.

    Cream Eggs just aren't the same here, the filling is a lot less gooey. :(

    For me, although I can only get them when I visit Ikea...

    Let me tell you something that had changed in the UK. The rolos that I used to buy in 1990 were no the same in 1999 the caramel was much softer and not nearly as good. You brits and eurpeans have not had good caramel. The best I can recommend is not available there it is a "sugar daddy" and it is tough caramel. So tough in fact that I cannot eat it any more as it removed a tooth crown. You Brits know what that is right (horrible joke sorry). Something I could not get Europe when I was there was Sugar daddies and animal crackers. I also miss those british birds but I am drunk right now and my wife is at work. What a heel I am and for the thought get an extra straight ticket to hell. But I remember those british girls, they so appreciated the little things I did like making breakies, or the bed or just hugs and kisses and a dance at the pub or an expensive dinner. god bless them.

    Now that I have to be very limited in my sugar intake, I like these:

    I really like the 72%, but I couldn't find a picture of it. I LOVE dark chocolate. Plus it has flavonoids in it to aid in heart health.

    5th Avenue kicks Butterfinger's ayuss.
    Especially the king sized.

    Also, Jelly Belly jellybeans.
    The deity of jellybeans.

    Whachamacallits are good, but I miss Snickers Cruncher.

    Love me some Junior Mints.

    I see after over a decade they've brought back peanut butter Twix.
    Dunno why they don't just keep it around.

    Don't have much of a sweet tooth, if I had to pick I'd say Crunch or Take Five.

    I'm another one that doesn't have much of a sweet tooth, but every once in a while I get the urge for Hershy's dark chocolate, and when I can find it, I usually get me some Bit O' Honey.

    I take issue with Butterfinger - they break off into messy fragments.

    Ooh - ooh! They had these in Arizona, but I can't find them here in Georgia. Rocky Road - marshmallow filling covered in chocolate.

    And of course Chuckles, sometimes hard to find.
