I've a sweet tooth and frequently find myself grazing on sweets that I've bought for my students. I've started awarding prizes for my HS diaries and so I picked up a bag of goodies at Family Mart this evening. I've already started on them and have just finished off my very first packet of strawberry mentos, which were nice.

However, my favs are those Richel Milk & Ca (caramel I think) chews. God knows what they're doing to my teeth. The students seem to like those packs of 5 chocolates, which come in either red, blue, green or yellow packets.

I'm guessing this'll drop straight off the page.

Actually I need 6 more posts for 25, so I'm gonna go ahead and say Chocs. They are close enough to Chips Ahoy! cookies to remind me of being a kid.

"Anytime" sugar-free (I know, not exactly reassuring) candies are much better than you'd think they'd be.

Mentos are not Korean, but they are good nevertheless.

I like those chocolate, too.. the small square ones, right?

My favourites are those Whole Almond Candy and Scotch Trio (but only the butterscotch and the coffee flavours. I don't like the banana ones). I can eat a whole bag of either in one sitting.

Crunky bars are so much better than Nestle Crunch or Hershey Krackel. The puffed rice in the Crunky bars has a definite toasted rice flavor and is crunchier. The rice in the American candy bars is tasteless.

Big up for Crunky Bars and also that 56% chocolate, but you can't beat a Cadbury's Whole Nut bar.

I used to chuck "Myjju(s)" at my kids and co-teachers.
They are as much delicious as aerodynamically packaged for accurate confectionery projectiles.
Stress-reliever in either way.

Crunky better than Crunch? Well I guess some people like chocolate and some people like vanilla.

Back home in Chi-town they are having The All Candy Expo next week. Anything you could ever want under one massive roof.

And that's 25.

American chocolate is horrible compared to European chocolate. Most taste like war rations or diabetic chocolate.......no comparison to Cadburys etc!
