Favorite - Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, no generic ones will do, and Mounds. Least favorite - WHOPPERS. Who came up with this? They are seriously the worst. I love Whoppers. The Whopper Mini Easter Eggs are one of my all time favorites! I refuse to buy a bag of candy with those in because I will not subject any child to that.

Smarties, I still love them. Canadian Smarties, not US Smarties which we call Rockets. Those are gross. Coffee Crisp, Aero, Kit Kat. Hmmm, maybe it's the Nestle bars I like. I like gummy candy but not black licorice. Dad always got all the black licorice and some tough chewy thing, it was on a stick but it wasn't a sucker. It came in brown or pink. I remember occasionally getting a can of pop and being so happy I could drink the whole thing myself!

I hate candy corn and circus peanuts. Ugh. I don’t even like to smell them. I like Heath bars, Reese Cups, and Twixt bars.

I wish I could have gone Trick or Treating with you all. I'd love all your black licorice, peanut butter kisses and candy corn! My favorite is white chocolate Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, though.

My favorites were the Hershey special dark, Charleston chews, Sugar Daddy lollipops, milk duds and Twizzlers.
I don't like anything that had coconut or nuts.
Once we got home from trick or treat, the candy trading and negotiating began. Snickers, Reese's and M&M's were always the coveted candy by the others (siblings and neighborhood kids), so I would trade those to get more of my favorites.
We all got to retain our own compilation of candy and had no restrictions on consumption....so the week or two after Halloween, was a complete sugar-fest.

Ha ! There was no Reese’s peanut butter cups when I went tot. That would be my favorite for sure. To those who do like candy corn, do you eat them - white tip, orange then yellow. There’s no way I could just eat them any other way. 🤍🧡💛

I loved Laura Secord chocolate bars. They were so good when I was growing up. I like Aero Bars, too. I liked the orange pumpkin gum candies too. The flavour didn’t last long.

As a kid, pretty much any kind of chocolate was the best, but I also liked red licorice and the yellow and green Charms Sweet & Sour lollipops. There wasn’t a lot of candy I would turn my nose up at, but I wasn’t too fond of black licorice or those peanut blossom taffy things wrapped in the orange and black waxed paper. Those would end up as the last thing left in the bottom of the bag. We had a lot of really old people on our street and they would usually just give out nickels or dimes.
These days I’m kind of partial to Butterfingers so my kid tries to get me some because lots of times people don’t give them out. I also like Twix, KitKat, Nestle Crunch. DH likes the Almond Joy so he snags most of those out of DD’s bag.
As an aside, my dad’s favorite was Baby Ruth bars so when he was “checking over” our Halloween candy he always confiscated all of those. I don’t think I ever ate a Baby Ruth until I was probably in my 20’s! 🤣

My sister and I used to play 'trade' too... My favorites were mostly anything chocolate... except ones that had coconut or peanuts in them (except Snickers) Hated the square tri-colored candy.. was that Brach's candy... pink/black/white? Then those ones in orange and black wrappers. My favorite candy: 100,000 bars Candy Corn Kit Kats Twix Smarties Wow, I haven’t thought of those in many years. I just got a taste of it in my memory. Didn’t love them, but as I recall I would eat them if there wasn’t much else left.

As a kid, my fave were Sixlets. Least favorite was anything licorice or coconut. Now, Reese's are my faves. I forgot about Sixlets!!! LOVED those... yes they were probably my top pick. Do they even make those anymore. Another favorite candy but I don't ever remember seeing them too much for Halloween is the Neeco candies. I still love them. Amazon has Valentine and Easter Sixlets. I love them too!
