Milk Duds... not from mad cows.



>>1) Your cow insists on wearing a little steak sauce behind each ear as cologne.

2) She refuses to let you milk her, saying "Not on the first date."

3) Your cow takes up painting and cuts off one of its ears.

4) Your cow gets a silicon implant for her udder.

5) Your cow appears on Oprah, claiming to be a horse trapped in a cow's body.<<

19. Used to always get Sugar Babies
Edited on Fri Jul-23-04 08:10 PM by tridim
but I haven't seen them for years. There is NOTHING like a mouthful of semi-dissolved Sugar Babies. So now I go between Raisinettes or Junior Mints. They're very refreshing!

21. Yum! And Sugar Daddy On A Stick... Can't Find Those Anymore Either.
Yes indeed... that partially dissolved, granular, sweet melted caramel... a wonderful memory.

27. I cannot watch a movie at a theater without my large Coke and Goobers.
In fact, I cannot recal ever eating Goobers anywhere else.

30. Junior Mints! But they don't even carry them anymore
:-(

No red vines either. Stupid Twizzlers, which suck ass. All the movie candy sucks now! I don't want sour patch kids! I want junior mints and red vines!

31. Goobers...
and they always taste better when you sneak them into the movies. Things always seem to taste better when you save 3 dollars on a box of candy!

32. Red Vines! Twizzlers pale in comparison...
red vines, ends bitten off both ends, then use the red vine as a straw for your diet coke. Yum. Then eat red vine once it has frozen (or at least gotten very cold).

teeth to see if their jaws would stick together?

37. Sno-Caps!
Edited on Sat Jul-24-04 11:14 AM by theHandpuppet
Gotta have a box of those with a big bucket of buttered popcorn. I can usually find large boxes of Sno-Caps or Milk Duds at the Dollar Tree for a buck each. I'll pay those outrageous prices for theatre popcorn, but there's no way I'll pay 3 bucks for candy.

38. WHAT? No Atomic Fireballs? No "Red-Hots"
And when the (old style) box was empty, you could close the ends together and blow through it gently to make it boxflaps vibrate and squeak like a badly tuned clarinet.

The new boxes which have the glued ends don't do that anymore.
