Dr T Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I'm not usually a big candy eater-(I'd rather eat real food) but this Easter, I had two great candies. I had a Hershey's Kisses with coconut inside and Jolly Rancher Jelly Beans. They are great! If you like that kind of thing, you might just love those!

BenRaines Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 JR jelly beans are great. I go to Target the day after the holiday and buy for keeping at the office. I was able to buy $60 of candy for $30. Lots of jelly beans and dove chocolate eggs. Ben Raines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr T Posted April 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 A+ on that Ben. I really like Milk Chocolate Dove pieces and I love the Cadbury candy coated chocolate eggs that only come out at Easter time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanstress70 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Thanks for the pull back down to reality, SF! Actually, I'm sitting at my desk eating a ham sandwich, brussels sprouts, and an apple. So really I'm just dreaming about chocolate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maureen Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Don't be scared to try that dark chocolate once in awhile, it's good for you. :) http://www.webmd.com/diet/news/20030827/da...althy-chocolateM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone once told me that if you just smell chocolate it's as if you just ate it if you really think hard.... sounds dangerous to me!

Works for me sometimes.. But then again it depends on the chocolate and it only lasts a little while so I do end up eating it a few mins later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blessed Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I found Whitman's chocolates this Easter that were organic and they sure did taste good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palerider Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I love Jelly Beans.....you can toss the black ones out....don't care for them......LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr T Posted April 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 He too Pale. I can't stand the black ones. My best friend growing up used to get Zouts from Holland. They are the grossest black licorice "candy" (if you could call it that) in the world. When I eat jelly beans, I like Jelly Belly Jelly Beans the best.

mom_of_jcchlsm Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I'll take all the black jelly beans - I like 'em! I like the lindt lindor truffles best. And toblerone - white or milk chocolate, but not the dark. We ended up with some kind of really nasty twizzlers easter candy. our kids usually like twizzlers, but these were pastel colors and they tasted awful and were the wrong kind of chewy.

anniem Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 The best jelly beans in the world are of course Jelly Bellys--nothing else compares. I recently discovered Sharffenberger chocolate, I especially like the dark chocolate with cocoa nibs. Must be eaten slowly, allow chocolate to melt, study the flavors. Ok, lindt is always good. Another favorite of mine is Rittersport, dark chocolate with marzipan. I prefer dark chocolate, and made the mistake of telling one of my daughters that milk chocolate is for babies. She was quite insulted, so I'm trying to be less judgmental when it comes to candy. And licorice? I guess real licorice is always black--that's an argument I've lost before. We only like red vines--twizzlers are just weird. My sister's family is backwards--they only like twizzlers and turn away the tasty red vines. This is a topic I can sink my teeth into.

Dr T Posted April 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I don't really like dark choc but your other discriptions sound like something I should try. Thank you for that Anniem :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Mormon Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 My finace is a chocoholic. For her birthday I took her out to a local hotel for a buffet they call "Death by Chocolate". She was in heaven. I myself, am not a big chocolate person. I'll eat it, but it's not a must for me. Since that day she has sworn off chocolate until our wedding in July. She gives herself 2 day off a week, Sunday, but otherwise no chocolate. PS - We're having a chocolate fountain at our wedding, those are fun.

Maureen Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 PS - We're having a chocolate fountain at our wedding, those are fun.Be careful with those chocolate fountains, especially if the chocolate attacks the white tableclothes, very hard to clean.
