While most of the above suck as adults, I loved them as a kid. I used to eat a full bag of circus peanuts myself.

The one that I never really enjoyed was Charleston Chew.

Traditional black licorice....barf
I'm actually going to say Twizzlers now that I think about it. I have never liked them and still hate them to this day. I'd rather eat a Charleston Chew. I'm sure I'm in the minority.

Black licorice, or big league chew if you consider that candy. BIt o honey is also pretty gross.

You know those tiny little chocolate balls you find in a cluster in the grass out where rabbits have been? They really taste like . . . what's the word? . . . ASS. They taste like ass.

Whoppers, the chocolate malt balls. I like malt milkshakes just fine, but Whopper candies taste like that flavor you get on your tongue after you barf.

Chocolate covered cherries.

Because my Mom gave me chocolate to get rid of the taste of Formula 44 when I was sick as a kid. :(

One of my favorites you uncultured swine.

I still remember one Halloween as a kid, where my neighbor was out of town but left a huge bowl of candy with a sign that said "please only take one". Naturally, every kid typically fills up their bag with handfuls of candy in this situation. Except that the giant bowl was filled with...you guessed it, Whoppers! I came back for a second pass on my street around 11pm & the bowl was still entirely full, no one wanted them lol.

What's wrong with Whoppers? :confused: I like malted milk balls (although the newer ones are kinda sucky---they're so small they turn into hard goop when you chew them. Malted milk balls from a chocolate store are what they used to be like.)

I like Whoppers, Necco Wafers, and black licorice.

Those generic taffy-like candies in the black and orange wrappers are the worst.
