New Styles.

Day 44: Reese's Fast Break.
Reese's is coming out with all varieties of candies now. It's pretty interesting. Awesome combination!!! Chocolate, peanut butter, and nougat! How did they come up with this? I like this bar. The chocolate is soft, so your teeth sink right through it straight to the peanut butter top and nougat bottom. There isn't enough peanut butter in it. I like the actual cups better. The nougat and peanut butter are smooth and flow together nicely. This is definitely easier to eat than peanut butter cups because you don't have paper to remove around the bar like you do the cups. It is a good bar overall.

Don't Lay A Finger On My...

Day 43: Butterfinger.
I miss the Simpson commercials with the classic line "Don't Lay A Finger On My Butterfinger". Those were good commercials. The butterfinger has always been a good choice, just not my favorite. The inside of the bar is crunchy toffee. It has peanut butter flavor in it too. The description on the front illustrates this candy bar perfectly....crispety, crunchety, peanut-buttery. The smooth chocolate covering makes the whole candy bar work together.

The name says it all.

Day 42: Thingamajig.
Who wouldn't want to eat something called a Thingamajig? It's chocolate-y. It's crunchet-y. It's peanut butter-y. I like the crunchiness of the cocoa crisps in it. It makes me think of one of my favorite combinations....chocolate ice cream with Rice Krispies. You get the sweet chocolate flavor with the crunchy texture from the krispies. There is a thin layer of peanut butter at the top of the candy bar, adding a hint of heaven to seal the deal. This is a good candy bar.

Peppermint Patty.

Day 41: York.
This looks like one big, dark chocolate piece of cow dung. Figuratively speaking....(Reggie, you get this). I don't like chocolate with mint, but I HAVE to try this....only for this blog. You have to actually bite into this bar...it isn't going to melt in your mouth. You barely get to taste the chocolate before you are bombarded by mint flavor. Ugh, I just can't do this. Leave the mint flavor out! My friends love these...I guess I'll leave them for my friends. I don't even wanna try a second bite. It's refreshing, don't get me wrong. But I still...don't...like...it.

This is for Tiff.

Day 40: Bottle Caps.
My sis-in-law, T, wanted me to try these! She got super excited when I bought these. I've never had Bottle Caps. This is weird...I just noticed the flavors on the front of the package. I thought they would be fruity, like ever other piece of candy. These are actually soda pop flavors. We'll see how this goes. Okay, so they're little chalky candies like Sweetarts. They have "bottle caps" written across them. They can be chewed up, and they turn into powder once they break up in your mouth. I can't tell what flavor I'm about to put in my mouth. I only know what it is when I start tasting it. I don't think I like the cola and root beer flavors. Definitely not the root beer flavor. Ugh. The cherry flavor is good. I guess you just have to pick the right flavors.

Ice cream.

Day 39: Hershey's Cookies'n'Creme.
I've eaten cookies n creme ice cream before, but not the bar. It doesn't look appetizing. I'm not really big about the ice cream. It tastes like white chocolate with bits of oreo cookie in it. Since I don't like the cream inside of oreo cookies, I don't really like this bar. I like the bits of cookie, but it's more cream than cookie bits. I don't think I like "creamy" or "milky" textures and flavors. I wish it could just be called Hershey's Cookies. That's it. Just cookies.

Can a Rainbow be SOUR?

Day 38: Skittles Sour.
Okay, first of all, be careful when opening the package. I think I flung some salt or other burning substance into my eye. Ouch. Whoa, I don't think I had the right mindset before putting this into my mouth. It spun me for a loop! It is SOUR! Once you get through the first few seconds of toe-cringing sourness, you get to the actual skittle. Then it's all good from there. The skittles are fruity and delicious. You definitely just have to trudge through that first WOW-ness of sour. Then you're in.
