Candylicious: Round 1, Heats 5 through 8

[Rain Man]

Here are the rules. This will be a head to head tournament. For efficiency's sake, I will run four heats in each thread.

Therefore, I will put up four pairs of candies. For each pair, you will identify the candy that you would most like to have at the moment of voting. It doesn't necessarily have to be your favorite candy overall, just the one that sounds good right now. For visualization purposes, you may assume that you're out trick or treating (dressed as an astronaut), and the woman at the door is offering you your choice of two options. You can only pick one.

So to summarize, you will vote for four candies in each thread, one candy per heat. And here they are!

Heat 5: Tart N Tinys versus Snicker Crisper

[Rain Man]

I've never had a Snickers Crisper, but it looks all right and I'm kind of neutral on Tart N Tinys.

Caramello could be a Final Four candy. Ribbon candy is fine, but Caramello is a powerhouse.

I'm not a fan of gelatinous candies, so I picked Wild Cherry Dots over Jelly Bellies because they sound more tart. But I'll generally never pick either.

I've never had a Zagnut, but it sounds all right. Skittles are really good, so I voted for them.

[listopencil]

A lot of the appeal is nostalgia and the tactile experience, rather than a truly pleasant aroma or flavor. Kind of like your mom.

[Bugeater]

I went with the Dots over Jelly Bellys just because of how horrible the popcorn ones are.

[Toby Waller]

I've never even seen a Snickers crisper.
Who the hell nominated that?

[jd1020]

Skittles and ummmmmmmm, nothing.

I'd vote in the jelly belly/dots round but I think Mike & Ike is better, so no.

[Toby Waller]

I don't even eat any of these.
I just voted for the ones I'd try if they were on the table

[TimBone]

In this heat, the rule concerning 'at the moment of voting' came in to play.

99 times out of 100 I'd pick skittles over a Zagnut. I've never even had a zagnut. But, it sounded very good at the moment. Maybe because I'm in the mood for chocolate...Either way, I voted Zagnut.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

I am saddened that Wild Cherry Dots have a place in the human existence.

[The Franchise]

I'm voting for the local Jelly Bellies. Anyone wants any....let me know.

[Bugeater]

I was just at the store and was curious about the Snickers Crisper so I picked one up. It was actually quite good, basically a 100 Grand with peanuts in it. Would plow one again.

Try a Take 5, hell of a candy bar

Yeah, that joint is fire.

[Toby Waller]

I tend to put all candy bars in the fridge first

[GloucesterChief]

Voted for:

5:Tart N Tinys. Love tart things.
6:Caramello. Cadbury's chocolate is rather good. Ribbon candy is just sugar candy.
7:Jelly Belly. Fond memories of visiting the Jelly Belly factory when I visited my grandparents in CA. Big fan of jelly beans as a whole.
8:Skittles. Peanut Butter and toasted coconut just seems weird to me.

[The Franchise]

This.

[JoeyChuckles]

I'm voting for the local Jelly Bellies. Anyone wants any....let me know.

I need some cinnamon jelly bellies.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Peanut butter Twix and peanut M&M's are still my go-to 9 times out of 10.

[Bugeater]

Is that the same thing? Because it really seemed like something that I had before, but the only thing that came to mind was the 100 Grand. I'm not sure if I've ever had a Take 5.

[Rain Man]

Peanut butter Twix and peanut M&M's are still my go-to 9 times out of 10.

Then perhaps you should have nominated Peanut Butter Twix.

[Toby Waller]

Lol I actually just now had a blow pop that had no gum inside

[Fire Me Boy!]

1. Dont care.

2. Caramello. WTF would pick ribbon candy over chocolate and caramel?

3. Jelly Belly, except those nasty, disgusting, vile buttered popcorn kind.

4. Skittles, but the real originals, not this bullshit they call original. #fuckgreenapple #bringlimeback

[Fire Me Boy!]

I need some cinnamon jelly bellies.



Regular cinnamon or the hot cinnamon? I like both, but I really dig the fiery ones.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Then perhaps you should have nominated Peanut Butter Twix.

Contested convention?

Have you tried the Snickers Crisper?

[Fire Me Boy!]

Have you tried the Snickers Crisper?



I have not, but generally find Snickers to be overrated.

[TimBone]

I have not, but generally find Snickers to be overrated.
I've never been huge Snickers fan myself. I enjoy the almond Snickers a little bit, and I found the Crisper to be pretty darn good. I ate three of them the week I tried it.

[Rain Man]

Contested convention?

I've heard people say that Peanut Butter Twix is the Paul Ryan of candy bars.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

ROFL:clap:

Compare it to Whatchamacallit.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Freezer brah

[TimBone]

Compare it to Whatchamacallit.
Basically a Snickers with the texture of a whatchamacallit. The texture does a lot for it though. I found it very enjoyable.

[TimBone]

Freezer brah
Only Charleston Chews.

[Toby Waller]

Freezer brah

Ah hell nah.
I let 3 musketeers stay for ever. I'll let it sit out for a couple minutes.
I don't want a solid baby ruth,just a cool one.
Butterfinger needs to be solid,but those are kind of gross now anyway.
Mounds and reeces cups have to be cold.

I might try Reeces from the freezer

[Dartgod]

Wait, wait, wait.

Did no one nominate PB Twix? :eek:

[Fire Me Boy!]

Wait, wait, wait.

Did no one nominate PB Twix? :eek:



They're not even the best Twix, let alone candy.

[threebag]

Is that the same thing? Because it really seemed like something that I had before, but the only thing that came to mind was the 100 Grand. I'm not sure if I've ever had a Take 5.

Next time you are wanting to feed the sweet tooth get one. You will not be disappointed at all. This bar is a borderline 'eleven.

[Indian Chief]

There are some weird candies in this contest so far. Is the Dots representative the Wild Cherry and not the assorted Dots? I don't do WC, but the regular variety are okay.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

You know nothing Smelly Snow

[Bugeater]

There are some weird candies in this contest so far.
That's because smellypitts posted pics of every shitty candy he's ever eaten in his life.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Wait, wait, wait.

Did no one nominate PB Twix? :eek:

No, but I will support a contested convention to get it on the ballot. That is a prime candy bar with many years of experienced service.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

They're not even the best Twix, let alone candy.

Yet fucking cherry dots are in this contest....

[lewdog]

Is that the same thing? Because it really seemed like something that I had before, but the only thing that came to mind was the 100 Grand. I'm not sure if I've ever had a Take 5.

I don't really care for candy bars but Take 5 is my favorite.

Try one. You'll love it.

[TimBone]

Yeah, Take 5 is dope.

Dots in general suck. Is there a candy out there that sticks to your teeth worse than Dots?

[LiveSteam]

1. Dont care.

2. Caramello. WTF would pick ribbon candy over chocolate and caramel?


I did, the pic reminded me of Christmas from about 1973-78..

[LiveSteam]

Frozen Snickers are the bomb

[threebag]

Frozen snickers doesnt hold a candle to a Take 5

[Toby Waller]

How do you chew a frozen snickers?

[TimBone]

Frozen Snickers are the bomb

I don't see how anybody can eat a frozen Snickers. They get as hard as a rock.

[threebag]

How do you chew a frozen snickers?

I just cut it with a knife.

[LiveSteam]

Heath is top 5 in my book to.
Oh God,,DQ Blizzards with Heath. 100* dog days of summer.

[TimBone]

Hell yes to Heath Blizzards. I always ask for extra Heath, too.

[threebag]

Pay Day is a pretty good bar too.

[Toby Waller]

Hell yes to Heath Blizzards. I always ask for extra Heath, too.

You're allowed to do that? Extra charge?

[threebag]

Throw a banana in there next time too

[Rain Man]

I just cut it with a knife.

Do you also use a fork?

[TimBone]

Throw a banana in there next time too
In the heath blizzard? Sounds interesting.

[TinyEvel]

why, bastard, did you have to pit Snickers Crisper against Tart n Tinys?


That's my top two right there.

How surprising. I had you pegged as a Krackel man.

Banana on a hot dog bun with peanut butter and jelly. Do it.

[TimBone]
