    What’s the difference between “Smarties candy” and “Nestle Smarties”? Also how does Fun Dip end up in the lower cost/nobody likes it category!?

      Smarties are known as rockets here in Canada - they are the pressed sugar candies.

      In Canada, Nestle Smarties (which we just call smarties) are similar to a peanut free m&m, with different colours than m&m’s.

    I mourn the loss of Mike N’ Ikes in halloween candy mixes. I never see them anymore.

    Idk what changed, but twix today seem a lot more plasticy and dry than they did 20 years ago. They used to be 10/10, but now they are kinda mid. I’d take normal chocolates over them these days. Sour Skittles are still pretty good, though.

    This year most kids loved the full size Hershey chocolate bars, those went the fastest. I think the sheer size it’s a selling point. Reese’s were a close second.

    Thank you for proving the superiority of the objectively best candies, skittles, sour patch kids, starbursts, and reece’s 😌
