The Creme de la Creme:
The very best combinations of chocolate, caramel, peanut butter, and crunchy things. Be sure to hide these from your parents! (e.g. Twix, Snickers, Butterfinger, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, 100 Grand, Heath Bar, Rolos, anything King Size).
Settling Sets In:
The time period one to two weeks after Halloween when all of a sudden a Three Muskateers bar is your best option…. (e.g. Crunch, Whoopers, Milk Duds, Mr. Goodbar, Almond Joy, Baby Ruth, Hershey Bar).
The Day the Chocolate Runs Out:
You go looking for a Hershey’s Kiss at the bottom of the bucket, and you realize that you are now in the Land of Gummies, and Fruit Flavored Candy… (e.g. Skittles, Starburst, Sour Patch Kids, Sweet Tarts, Nerds, Gummy Bears).
Starvation Rations:
The candy that is only edible during the dry months between when the Easter candy runs out and next Halloween…. (e.g. Life-Savers, Necco Wafers, Laffy-Taffy, Fireball, Lemon-Heads, Hot Tamales).
Not Edible:
The candy you throw out of the Pumpkin Bucket right before going Trick-or-Treating….(e.g. Dots, Good & Plenty, Dum-dums, Twizzler, Jolly Ranchers
