...are the GOD of candy (in my personal opinion)

Anyone know where I can find some? It's been TOO long since I had one.

I dreamed about them, so I think it's at least time to make a post and ask.

The only place I've seen them at in several years in Korea is the black market in the basement of the Volvo building in Hannam-dong. Otherwise, you need any Army friend to help you get on base and get them. I've done that, and in my drunken state of bliss, polished off a whole bag of the foil wrapped minis. I never want to eat another one of those things again.

I haven't seen many. But if u get really desperate you can always make your own.

I do a little samgyupsal improv

where I dip my chocolate into peanut butter and wrap it with lettuce and eat.

Ok the lettuce is a little weird but it doesn't dimish the taste at all ok? (Really, Stop looking at me like I'm crazy)

if you want to make a reasonable approximation, sans lettuce:

Pretty sure they had them in Taiwan.

They are pretty damned good. I also like skittles. Mr. Bigs are good, too.

I found a watchamacallit bar the other day in family mart. I've never seen any of those before that. Usually the only candy you can find are snickers and twix. I'd like to see some reeses sometime soon.

Those remind me of nutterbutters from little debbie.

Hmmm little debbie, you, hohos, snowballs, and ringdings rock my world...

IS IT ME OR DO ALL OF THOSE THINGS SOUND SEXUALLY EXPLICIT?!?

I saw the little Reese's cups last time I was at I Love Cookie in JeongJa. Could have been 6 months ago. Don't know what they have now. They usually have a large selection of bags of candy.

They used to have them at some import mart in Sincheon - behind the Hyundai Department Store - right by that little park that is back there. It was a while ago since I was last there, but they probably still have them. Ohhh...they were the Reese's minis - but they taste the same.

You just made my day. I live like 10 minutes from that place. I actually like minis better because you can mash in ice cream and its awesome.

I love peanut butter cups too. (your peanut butter, in my chocolate!) Though, I like the Wal-mart version of them better than the Reese's. If you like that sort of thing, try these:http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a279/rtflakfizer/100_3954.jpg
I found them at Emart and I think they're good. They're like bon-bons with peanut butter in the middle. make sure you get the ones with peanut butter though, the others have white stuff of chocolate inside.
