(1,831 posts)But I love some Mellocreme pumpkins!🤭
Candy corn doesnt have a taste.
Circus peanuts are almost as disgusting as licorice.
Jest my two cents

Circus Peanuts are just styrofoam, flavored with some odd banana taste. Plus, they are usually orange, like TSFs face.

(1,396 posts)Especially mixed with peanuts, real ones that is. Circus Peanuts taste like pink marshmallows
left out in the sun too long.

(599 posts)They are a very important part of this Halloween season. The problem for me is that I like them for about 4-5 pieces, then I have had enough and quit. A small bag is plenty for me all season. Sometimes by Christmas, I will have thrown half of them away. They are great for a few pieces.

(460 posts)Haven't had candy corn in decades. I wonder if I'd still like them.
Something else I couldn't stand (and still can't) are jelly beans. I suppose it was the texture. Oh, well, plenty of other goodies for me to get into.

(75,868 posts)The texture is chalky on both.
Candy corn tastes like nothing but sweet.
Foam peanuts taste sweet with a touch of artificiality. Worst of both worlds.

(91 posts)I hate the texture of each and also the taste that they leave in my mouth makes me want to immediately brush my teeth.

(3,814 posts)I liked it then. I've outgrown it. Peanuts are monkey poop. People shouldn't eat them.
