A 5th Avenue Bar is a far superior Butterfinger - and it actually tastes like peanut butter. It's an American candy bar. There is a whole WORLD of sweets and chocolate out there...

Truly my favorite candies growing up were Cream Filberts (hazelnuts in a sugar coating that is amazing), Angel Food (a molasses puffed toffee - sorta like Violet Crumble for those of you with access to UK candy), and horehound hard candy - which you can find sometimes at retro/historic places. I have a soft spot for the old-fashioned stuff.

I just got a bag of cinnamon hard candy...If they'd have had root beer, I'd have gotten that as well.

I worked at a crisis hotline long ago...one of the volunteers was a stewardess from Germany. She always brought 'real chocolate' back from Europe...mmmm.
It's taken a while, but you can finally get good chocolate here in the rural States, as long as you're not shopping at the Dollar Store.
Or Dollar General. Or Dollar Tree. Or Everything's $1.00. Or Family Dollar....

I'm also in love with anise candy. When I was small, they were red candies wrapped in red cellophane. Now I can only find these beautiful anise candies from Italy, but as I said, they are beautiful and clearly made with sugar and not corn syrup.

My mom's fav were the cinnamon ones.

I didn't know what that was! so,I looked it up...

But doesn't it look like a little bike rack? Like a little candy guy on a chocolate bike rides up and parks his little bike only he can't lock it because you don't have to - it's candy land and stealing isn't against the law really, it's just considered bad taste and there's nothing worse in candy land than bad taste, right?

am I saying any of this out loud?

It is designed thus to make it easy to break off a bite. And dark chocolate toblerone is actually not all that bad.

However... none of the candy bars you have mentioned so far come close to the Five Star Chocolate Bar from Lake Champlain Chocolates.

Has anyone else noticed that the last actual argument in The Argument Thread was over kale... And then suddenly things like chocolate and candy were brought up and now everyone is mentioning all their favorites in perfect harmony?

Apparently... The answer to world peace is sugar.

Or it took all that chocolate and candy to wash out the taste of kale.

Back when I could eat kitkats, a friend sent me Japanese kitkat - green tea flavored. It was kinda good... but if you like white chocolate, you'd like it. Apparently, in Japan there are myriads of kitkat flavors.
