Name Your Favorite Candy Bar

[Mr. Ected]

Since I'm on a weight control mission at the moment, my favorite candy bar right now is broccoli. But in the old days, like last week, I used to love a good Skor bar.

How about you, Loungers?

I like to pick the chocolate off first, then eat the toffee

[mitchum]

4. Endangered Species Chocolate: Dark Chocolate With Blueberries

or a Snickers

[sakabatou]

5. Butterfingers

[rrneck]

6. But only if they're fresh.

Otherwise they simulate lockjaw.

[sakabatou]

12. Yeah, they can get real hard and tough

[TK421]

7. Three Musketeers....mine and my sisters favorite

and we like to put them in the freezer....awesomeness!!!

[fizzgig]

9. almond snickers, milky way or skor

i have less of a sweet tooth than when i was younger, but i can't turn down one of those.

[Kali]

11. ooo I've never tried (or heard of) almond snickers

yum! Remember the old style Mars bar?

[fizzgig]

39. i don't know that i ever had one of those

but the snickers is amazing

[JitterbugPerfume]

13. snickers or Zero

Do they still make Zero bars?

[TK421]

14. They still make Zero bars....I've seen them

[gbate]

50. They do still make them and I enjoy one from time to time. Yummy.

[Minimus]

15. PayDay -

and being unemployed makes me love having them even more!

[TK421]

17. Being unemployed myself could get me to like those as well!

:toast:

[auntAgonist]

16. Mars Bar, Cadbury Flake, Mounds & Almond Joy.

I also like Heath, Skor, Payday and all Dark Chocolate.



ok, I'm done now :)

:hi:

aA

[TK421]

18. I've had Cadbury chocolates ( many kinds...it IS my favorite ) what are flakes?

[auntAgonist]

20. they are delicious. Smooth folded milk chocolate ....

Flakes were first developed in 1920 and was founded by an employee of Cadburys. When the excess from the moulds was drained off, it fell off in a stream and created folded chocolate with flaking properties.

They are so creamy smooth. In Edinburgh where I grew up, the ice cream vendors used to serve cones with a flake stuck into the soft ice cream. They called it a 99 (don't know why)

Fond memories from my childhood. I can get Flakes in Canada, and I can order them online but I can't find them in the stores here in the USA.

:hi:

[TK421]

21. .................... you know .................

I think I am in love with you now? After this post, it is true..............
You grew up in Edinburgh? :loveya: are you NOT the girl of my dreams?!!!!@!@!@!#%#$%T^#$%%%%

For fucks sake, we simply MUST meet!!!!

[auntAgonist]

23. ..

:rofl:

I might be the girl of your nightmares LOL

Yup, grew up in Edinburgh, moved to Canada when I was about 10 years old and now living in the USA.

















I'm old enough to be your Mom :)

[TK421]

24. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way...

I didn't mean anything deliberate ( this IS the internet, after all... ) just the way we were talking about chocolate and shit.....well, food is a passion for me, period...I love to cook.

I love to mess around in the kitchen with any ingredient I find and sometimes I have found a winner of a recipe....other times, I have found big losers....

[auntAgonist]

26. NO!!! oh no you didn't at all.

:hug:

I LOVE to cook too and baking is one of my favourite things to do. My husband doesn't / can't eat chocolate so I buy it for myself and eat it when he's not around.


You sure didn't offend me. My Mom comment was meant to be funny, and thanking you for the compliment :)

not to worry!!!!!

:hug:


kesha.

[TK421]

27. OK....we're always cool!!

:pals:

[greenbriar]

19. I LOVED the Marathon candy bar

nothing could replace that


but I guess if I had to pick one now it would be three musketeers or mounds

[surrealAmerican]

28. Those were a favorite of mine as a child, especially ...

... in the summertime, when we kept them in the freezer.

[MrSlayer]

32. Yes!

[Dr Fate]

59. They still make a similar bar in England- the "Curly Wurly"

You can find them at specialty shops & British Grocery shops in most US cities...

[rucky]

22. Butterfinger

[lightningandsnow]

29. Three Musketeers.

So good.

I also really like peppermint patties, but those aren't exactly bars.

[pokerfan]

30. Big Kat

[noamnety]

44. Did you ever have a Canadian kitkat?

they are the same, but better quality chocolate. Being in Michigan we go through Canada sometimes as a shortcut to New England, we always stop at a gas station and buy a few while we're there.

[pokerfan]

47. Did not know that

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Kat#Canada_.28Dark_Kit_Kat.29

I will keep an eye out.

[Skittles]

31. got a tip for you, Mr. Ected

don't deny yourself treats - instead of having a Skor bar, eat half of one - you can eat anything you want, just not all that you want - watch those calories but don't deny, that always leads to trouble, and EXERCISE - every day

my favorite candy treat is a Butterfinger *mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm*

[Mr. Ected]

35. Thank you skittles for the sage advice

I'll add some moderation to my diet and maybe it'll be more enduring!

[Skittles]

42. it will be I tell you

to be safe, track your calories - try something like the free online site www.fitday.com - if you indulge in say, a candy bar, you cannot indulge again that day, ya know? :D

[femmocrat]

34. Almond Joy. n/t

[texanwitch]

36. Butter fingers.

I had one today.

[snailly]

37. Twix and Milky Ways

YUM even though I haven't had either in a few years. Not good for me these days. POOP!

[DevonRex]

52. Those are my favorite, too. My husband and I split a Twix a few times a week.

It's just enough to satisfy and not so much that you feel guilty about it.

[Bravo Zulu]

38. Mallo Cup!

http://www.boyercandies.com/

[From The Ashes]

67. Love those!

and they're made in my mom's hometown: Altoona, Pennsylvania.

[carlyhippy]

40. Heath Bars

Carly

[Richardo]

41. Milky Way Midnight

The best of the dark chocolate mainstream bars. :9

[Lindsey]

43. Heath Bars for me. n/t

[Bravo Zulu]

45. Clark Bar!

[elleng]

58. YAAAAY!!!!!

I want a CLARK Bar!

http://www.flickr.com/photos/globetoppers/3681741589/

[noamnety]

46. peppermint patties, mounds, heath and snickers

unfortunately, I found the recipe online for making peppermint patties and it's easy. There is nothing more dangerous than having a mixing bowl of the filling. :)

[HopeHoops]

49. Sky Bars

They're the ones with the four compartments - chocolate, caramel, marshmallow, and something else I forgot. It has been a while since I had one.

[HughBeaumont]

54. Seconded, but the old Sky Bars tasted better.

I don't know if it was just the chocolate that was different or what . . . I still like them and hunt them down every chance I get.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

51. Skor.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

53. Zeros

[SidneyCarton]

55. Skor, or Peanut Butter Twix.

[Deja Q]

56. Whatchamacallit

Oh, I remember now, it's "Snickers". :9 Packed with peanut, it really satisfies! :D

[Dr Fate]

57. Really like the British candy bars- such as "Lion" and "Curly Wurly"

"Curly Wurly" is like the deleted "Marathon Bar" fromt he 70's, btw.

[proteus_lives]

60. Kit-Kat!

Always loved them, always will.

[BreweryYardRat]

61. Lindt makes a huge bar of white chocolate with little bits of orange or coconut.

It's ecstasy.

[PVnRT]

62. This one

:hide:

[applegrove]

63. I like smarties.

[barb162]

64. Baby Ruth

among others.

[Madrone]

65. Since no one has mentioned it yet.... Take 5

Take pretzels, caramel, peanuts and peanut butter, cover it all with HERSHEY'S chocolate and what do you get? HERSHEY'S TAKE 5 candy bar.

HERSHEY'S TAKE 5 candy bar provides a unique taste experience by combining five favorite ingredients in one candy bar. The result is a delicious salty sweet snack unlike anything else.

[ROFF]

66. George

I don't know why I call it George, because no matter how much I call it, George never responds.
Maybe I got the name wrong.

[Tikki]

68. I only like Mrs. See's dark chocolate...which I don't get very often...

Tikki

[Canuckistanian]

69. Caravan

I think it was from Cadbury. I never see it any more.
