What’s the best candy in the world? Second only to abortion and the “Star Wars” prequels, this is probably the most controversial topic in the world.
Sure, there is a lot of good candy out there. But there is also candy that makes you wish it was a law that you had to get a license to make them.
Take candy corn, for example. Despite being the poster boy of Halloween candy, many would describe the taste of it as eating cold wax.
And let’s not forget about those black jellybeans.
You know, the ones your parents seem to eat just fine but when you eat them it tastes like charcoal-flavored cardboard.
I don’t understand how anyone can go to the store, pick out a bag of black licorice, and eat that inedible abomination like it’s the best food gifted to us by God.
They don’t pay any mind to the Hershey’s or the Reese’s, or the Jolly Ranchers or Kit Kats.
No, instead they think to themselves: “You know what? I think I’ll pick the candy with the consistency of a steering wheel, that seems like a good choice.”
If you were to ask me, I would say that the best candy depends on what you like.
If you have an unhealthy obsession with peanut butter, I would recommend a Reese’s fast break.
If you like hard candy, Jolly Ranchers are the way to go.
If you like something sour, I would recommend Mike and Ike’s.
