Speaking of Halloween... What candy did you hate getting the most?

[sundog]

The one you gave away or threw away?

I was always disturbed by those vomit-orange marshmallow peanuts.



There was also a mean man in our neighborhood who gave everyone bananas.

[alittlelark]

1. Anything with nuts

I have an anaphalactic allergy - I would trade them with siblings.

[JohnKleeb]

2. circus peanuts are great, whatchu talking about

I hated getting that gum, I forget the name of it, I also dont like good and plentys either.

[sundog]

6. Bazooka?? Whatchutalkinbout?? Bazooka rules

[JohnKleeb]

14. no not bazooka

they were like circular.

[sasquatch]

27. You talking about Necco Wafers?

The only thing they're good for are BB rifle targets.

[JohnKleeb]

30. no I am talking about some kind of gum

[renegade000]

44. double bubble?

[Pithlet]

59. I think I know what you're talking about.

They were cylinder shaped, pepto-bismol pink with ridges along the side, and they broke your teeth they were so hard.

[LoZoccolo]

71. 'chyeah no shit those peanuts are off the hook; I don't like Skittles.

Starburst was also bottom-of-the-bag for me.

[Catshrink]

3. Apples and other healthy crap.

Halloween means candy, sugar, yum.... mmmmmmm chocolate!

[sundog]

9. Why do people even bother with that??Everyone knows fruit has razor blades

in it

[Magrittes Pipe]

37. *ahem*

[sundog]

40. bwhahaha

[curse10]

4. Raisinettes

Blech! :puke:

[sundog]

35. These are stale raisinettes btw...

[UdoKier]

5. That beige peanut-flavored taffy in the red or black wrappers

blech.

Circus peanuts are bearable in modration, I suppose.

When I think about the amount of crap I ingested on Halloween as a kid, it makes me want to puke...

[gollygee]

12. ITA with that but here they were in orange and black wrappers

whose idea of candy was that?

[UdoKier]

77. Sorry, I meant orange. You're right. nt

[allalone]

54. yuch

that's the one I hated most too

[mykpart]

83. We could start a separate thread on those

nasty things in the orange & black wrappers! But I know people who love them! What kind of candy do you hand out now?

[edbermac]

7. Crunchy frog...

:bounce:

[WoodrowFan]

49. Spring Surprise?

[flamingyouth]

8. Anything with coconut

:puke:

[sundog]

10. Here! Happy Halloween...

[flamingyouth]

18. LOL - is that a coconut milk martini, by chance?

I actually like coconut milk, just not the dry, woody crap in candy. :puke:

[sundog]

28. Well, I sprinkled some of that stuff on top of the drink

:7

[tridim]

13. Yep, Mounds and Almond Joy

both went strait to my dad. Dry coconut fiber and chocolate is nasty. I also gave away all the orange and black jellybeans.

[liberalmuse]

11. Peanut butter taffy...

You know those ones wrapped in orange and black paper? Also didn't like the Bit 'O Honey's which were basically the same thing. Blech!

[bratcatinok]

72. I didn't like those and I didn't like hard candies, especially

peppermints. What kind of halloween cand are peppermints? Blech!

I loved popcorn balls and usually at least one person in the neighborhood would make them.

[Red State Rebel]

15. Anything with black licorice flavor. n/m

[underpants]

16. Mary Jane's (BLECH!) and pennies from the crazy religious lady

Gee thanks lady.

weird it was the only time of the year it looked like anyone lived in that house.

[sundog]

19. wtf??? How many pennies did she give you?

Was that like the abandoned house at the end of the cul-de-sac or something?

[underpants]

24. Like 8 or so

No it was a dark house off in the middle of the block.

Think Boo Radley. She really was nice but no one ever saw anyone going in or out of the house and SOMEONE pretty much cut the grass in the middle of the night or something.

[jonnyblitz]

17. corn candy. I got sick on it once and could never eat it again. n/t

[sundog]

21. Was it like cornucopia colored vomit? Should I ask?

[jonnyblitz]

53. LMFAO

I was like 5 years old. I forget, I just know, to this day, I can't eat it.

[DS1]

23. nastiest shit ever mass produced - besides reprints of Shrub's SOTUs

:puke:

[underpants]

25. I still LOVE corn candys

Yum.

[fugue]

46. I agree

Corn candy is ghastly. I didn't have to get sick on it. One was enough to convince me.

Anyone out there want to trade corn candies for coconut things? Both I and my dog love coconut.

[Mojambo]

69. Just thinking about Candy Corn gives me a headache. n/t

[Red State Rebel]

57. Good idea for your candy corn.....

Mix it together with spanish peanuts, grab a bunch and it tastes like a Payday! Yum!!!

[Nikia]

58. I never liked it either

Disgusting stuff.

[arwalden]

20. NECCO Wafers And Rootbeer Barrels

[sundog]

26. Happy Halloween! Since we're going to hell anyway...

[AgadorSparticus]

82. man, i haven't seen those in years!!! they are pretty nasty...

i couldn't take much of the sweettarts, good and plenty, or the peanut taffy either.

[sasquatch]

31. Rootbear barrels were pretty good

[arwalden]

22. These Ugly Things...

[sundog]

42. Wax tastes good, don't cha think?

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

29. Candy corn (shudder)

I don't remember getting the marshmallow circus peanuts for Halloween, but they certainly are gag-inducing. I also hated (and still do) those Brach's neopolitan-colored coconut things, as well as black licorice.

[sundog]

33. Here! Put this in your bag & stop complaining you ingrate!...

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

36. AAAAGGGGGHHHH!!! My eyes - my eyes!

BLAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

[JohnKleeb]

32. candy corn is crap

[YellowRubberDuckie]

63. Hey, candycorn was a staple at my grandparents'

and it was good when that was all you had!!
Duckie

[fudge stripe cookays]

78. Candycorn is disgusting.

Lewis Black's routine about it is hilarious.

[Guy Fawkes]

34. Candy: candycorn. Other: those fundy cartoons. There is a woman near here

who always hands them out.

[sundog]

38. How bout a religious brochure in you bag.. huh...

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

41. On the bus I used to ride to work

I used to see a woman who read the Watchtower every single day. I always wondered what if anything she got out of it. As long as she keeps it to herself, I don't mind what she reads.

[sundog]

45. There was a house on the tricks or treats route that handed them out!

[Guy Fawkes]

47. Maybe she was fakeing, and didn't know how to read.

[Shoeempress]

39. What was the worst was going to a dentist's house who'd give you

a toothbrush. God what a gyp.

[sundog]

43. tooth decay is a serious issue which should not be taken lightly

[Shoeempress]

68. Well it wasn't like I showed up with teeth black from Decay.

Besides, I had parents. Not only took the fun out of halloween but kinda dissed my folks

[WoodrowFan]

48. candy corn

BLEECH.

[Generic Other]

50. Just reading this thread made me sick

Turning green on Halloween...

[Lady Effingbroke]

51. candy corn and circus peanuts.

:puke:

[Rabrrrrrr]

52. Yep, the goddamned circus peanuts. Most digusting things ever.

Really, really disgusting.

I mean, awful. Hated them.

And there was always one or two dipshits in teh neighborhood who handed them out individually, unwrapped. Just plopped 'em into the candy bag. Though that was way back when, before the "liberal" media told us we should fear everything that is strange. Nowadays, most people would throw them away since they are unwrapped (well, I would, too, but out of fear of germs, not out of fear that the dude put anthrax into 'em).

Ah, circus peanuts. How my hate for you is endless and without measure.

If there are circus peanuts in heaven, then I ain't going.

[KG]

55. fried chicken embryos and beer

[peekaloo]

66. damn weirdos from FRANCE!

:D

[barb162]

56. licorice (BARFOLA)

[name not needed]

60. Those circus peanuts

Candy corn too. I haven't attempted to eat those damned peanuts since I was 3.

[supernova]

61. Juicy Fruit gum and apples

that my aunt handed out. :P Since I lived in the sticks, my parents took me to their neighborhood in town for trick or treating.

[sundog]

67. sn! you're still alive!

:hi:

Here's a razor-laced apple for ya!

[Pithlet]

62. Those peanuts are the Halloween fruitcake.

Just like fruitcake, I don't think anyone ever eats them but everyone always gives them away. They're the same peanuts since 1968; they just keep recirculating them.

[sundog]

64. lmao

[JohnKleeb]

65. I actually like them shrug

its candy corn that I hate.

[Maleficus]

70. Those peanut butter things wrapped in orange and black.

They were the nastiest things ever. :puke:

Circus peanuts come in close second, which you have in the picture. :puke:

[burythehatchet]

73. bit-'o-frickin-honey

[Ilsa]

74. Anything too chewy.

I want to chew my candy and move on to the next piece, preferably chocolate.

[annonymous]

75. Mary Janes and Bit O Honeys

Those are the worst. I don't like circus peanuts but never got any in my Halloween bag. My children don't like the hard candy with the soft centers and I'm not that crazy about them either.

[Zero Division]

76. Do Jimmy Swaggart pamphlets count?

Yes, I actually recieved one of those, back when I was a kid in Louisiana. :puke:

A Jack Chic tract would have at least been more laughably entertaining...dammit.

[Spirochete]

79. Popcorn balls

didn't care much for Baby Ruth bars, either. I'd give all that stuff to my little sister.

[HEyHEY]

80. The bastards that give sesame snacks

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

81. I once ate so many of those orange candy peanuts

that I vomited all over my pea-green knitted poncho with big gold buttons (SO 70s).

I couldn't touch them ever since. Not that I would now. Just give me a Symphony bar with almonds and toffee. Mmmmm.
