What halloween candy did you HATE getting as a kid?

[Clintonista2]

I used to HATE getting rockets candy --not sure if you guys have it in the U.S, but here's a picture of it:





I used to get tons of it, but the texture of it felt as though I was eating chalk.

[Brickbat]

1. Effing Bit o' Honey. That, and the nasty no-name peanut-butter chews.

Gross.

[la_chupa]

2. are those the same thing as sweet hearts?

They look like it.

I hated the boxes or raisins, those dum dum suckers, or circus peanuts

seriously circus peanuts - WTF

[SoxFan]

3. YES! THOSE THINGS!

And Sweet-Tarts. Bleh.

Give me Peanut Butter Cups, and lot's of 'em!

[Posteritatis]

17. I want to be euthanized the day I become sick of peanut butter cups

Dammit, now I have a craving for same...

[SoxFan]

18. One of the best lines in the history of the interwebs!

:rofl: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :rofl:

[Common Sense Party]

4. Look like SweeTarts

I hated the orange peanut-shaped candy. Not sure if it was supposed to be marshmallow or what. Nasty.

I also resent Three Musketeer bars.

[GoCubsGo]

5. Any hard candy

I don't mind those peanut butter chews. Not all that fond of the current version, however, as there's hardly any peanut butter in them these days.

[ElboRuum]

6. They're called Smarties here...

And I used to like them.

The one I hated most was Good'n Plenty.

[Sebastian Doyle]

45. To add to the confusion, they have Smarties in Canada too

But they're more like MnM's...

[HopeHoops]

7. Necco Wafers

Hard chalk and it doesn't even taste good!

[trof]

22. Yeah, but you can draw on the sidewalk with them.

;-)

[valerief]

40. Oh, but the brown and black and white ones taste so great. nt

[VMI Dem]

8. Those little mini candy bars.

Snickers, Milky Way, Mounds, etc. Nasty.

[graywarrior]

9. Cans of Miller

Bleech.

[VMI Dem]

11. The high life?

Sweet.

[graywarrior]

12. They kept the Bud for themselves.

[VMI Dem]

13. The rice gives me headaches.

Your neighborhood sounds awesome.

[graywarrior]

15. Now they're all either in AA or jail...lol.

[SoxFan]

19. That's why I installed a draft line

[HughBeaumont]

10. Mary Janes.

Crappiest candy ever. Those things tasted like they were half made of attic dust.

Necco Wafers. Sugar Chalk Discs. Same thing.

Malted anything. Gross. Dried vomit covered in chocolate.

[frogmarch]

14. corn candy & those awful orange marshmallow

circus "peanuts"! :puke:

I didn't know it before I married him, but my husband loves them both! :puke:

[trof]

23. Second that. Hate both.

[Kutjara]

30. I was going to mention those orange "peanuts"!

"Satan's hemorrhoids," I called them.

[Posteritatis]

16. There was some kind of toffee/caramel things that were common around here..

I forget the brand and so on, but I only ever saw them in these garish orange Halloween-themed wrappers. People gave them out by the solar mass, and I could never stand them. They managed to have the look, scent and texture of toffee candy without a fraction of the taste.

I actually liked rockets though, so you might want to ignore my opinion. ;)

[nytemare]

24. Those were the ones I hated!

Those cheap sticky peanut butter toffee things that would glue your mouth shut when you tried to chew them. And, the only time you did try to eat them was when all the other candy was gone!

[surrealAmerican]

20. Those are called "smarties" in the US.

I hated getting anything with peanut butter as a kid. I like it now, though.

[rbnyc]

21. Milk Duds

Yuck!!

[Kutjara]

31. They truly were awful, but they served an important purpose.

Whenever I had a loose baby tooth, I'd chew a milk dud and it would wheak the tooth straight out, no muss, no fuss, thereby dramatically accelerating the whole Tooth Fairy transaction process.

[thatsrightimirish]

25. Almond Joy

Yuck!

[Rabrrrrrr]

26. Circus peanuts. Godawful pieces of shit. Makes me gag just to think of the taste,

[Kutjara]

32. Yeah. Rabbit droppings rolled in salt. Abysmal. n/t

[EastTennesseeDem]

36. I've said it before on this very board. Only sadistic sociopaths would give a kid circus peanuts.

On what is supposed to be an enjoyable night.

[Rabrrrrrr]

37. It's worse than parents giving underwear "from Santa" to kids on Christmas

In the sense that it doesn't just suck - it's actually fucking a criminal act against all of humanity.

Even on Halloween, such evil is uncalled for.

[AsahinaKimi]

27. Black Licorice

Its funny, cause I like them now.

[Clintonista2]

43. Black jellybeans too... blech

[AsahinaKimi]

28. *Dupe*

Don't you hate that when the posting makes two of the same one? meh..

[Skittles]

29. I don't think there was a candy I did not like

[hippywife]

34. I'm with you, Skittles.

There is no such thing as bad candy. Never seen such a thing. :hi:

[OhioChick]

33. Circus Peanuts and Popcorn balls

:puke:

[Shell Beau]

35. Those are Smarties, and I love them. I hated

those nasty ass black and orange wrapped candies. I think they were called Peanut Butter Kisses. I would probably like them now. Oh, and I still love Smarties.

[femmocrat]

38. Popcorn balls. Taste like styrofoam. Yuk.

x(

[tmyers09]

39. Not a fan of Candy Corn.

[Release The Hounds]

41. These peanut butter tooth-chippers

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

42. I got a rock.

[ccharles000]

44. suckers

[Ahpook]

46. Pixy Stix loaded with chemicals or

apples with razors. I never got one that I know of. We just threw all that shit away.

Probably an urban legend but we wouldn't take the chance:) Plenty of sick bastards out there to try something like that.

[kid a]

47. popcorn balls

[tilsammans]

48. Anything licorice!

:puke:

[Individualist]

49. Same here

I never did like licorice and would trade with friends who did.
