What's your favorite?
You can only choose one.
Bought the sweet stuff for the first time in years. Reese's Pieces.

I can't pick just one.
My sweet tooth isn't satisfied with just one kind of candy. I keep a bowl of mixed candies on the island in the kitchen at all times. It holds different kinds of chocolate bars, caramel in many forms, and there is often a second container of Jelly Belly jelly beans nearby.
But Reese's Pieces are regularly stocked around here. It's the first candy my oldest granddaughter ever had (I gave them to her) and she still loves them.

She had the nicest legs of our class, in high school. Oh, sweet? that would have been Arlene. If I'd had any sense, I'd've married her back then. She was a real confection. As for real candy, lower case "c", my wife came back from Switzerland last night and has some Swiss chocolate. I may actually get some before it gets snarfed.

I lost my taste for sweets thirty years ago. It's too cloying for me. Before I did, sweet stuff made for some great moments with my son's mom, but that's not for public, er, consumption.

I don't eat a lot of sweets. When I do, it tends to be baked good or desserts as opposed to actual candy. Gun to my head if I had to pick a candy, probably cream toffees.

Candy cigarettes.

Chocolate, in it's many forms, but especially high cacao (65-85%) dark chocolate. Not only is it incredibly delicious, but it's low enough in carbs that I can indulge occasionally.
The abomination known a "white" chocolate, containing no cacao solids, is officially NOT chocolate and is therefore disqualified, and shall be completely and utterly ignored!

I've never been much for candy. Though from time to time I'll get Reese's peanut butter cups or sour gummi worms.

I like Almond Joy, it's delicious. I don't like Twix because the cookie crumbs get stuck in my throat and make me cough.

Dark chocolate in (almost) any form.
