Whatever the hell candy corn is.
Surprised to see Grape so many times! The fake grape flavor of grape candy is my favorite!
You’re not alone, I love artificial grape
Let’s play hide and seek, I’ll hide and you seek professional help.
All joking aside, I’m glad you enjoy them! I’ve never really met anyone who does so I always have to just begrudgingly eat the grape candy myself when it comes in a bag with different flavors. I hate food waste too much to throw the damn stuff out
Save them and ferment then into wine.
This’ll probably make me go blind, but I’m on board. How?
You know if a candy line has a fruit punch flavor you’re in for an iffy time.
Fruit punch is just all the fruits that you wouldn’t eat individually mixed together. A jambalaya of mediocrity.
‘Jambalaya of Mediocrity’. Excellent.
A Gumbo of Meh
Cherry for me. Common flavor in lots of fruity candy mixes but not my favorite. I do like cherry sours on their own though
Luden’s cherry cough drops for me. I can eat them like candy, and honestly they probably are.
My disdain for cherry candies actually comes from a childhood of sore throats and, therefore, gratuitous cherry-flavored medicines. I know it’s all mental but I can ’feel’ my tongue go numb from anything with that cherry flavor…
Am I the only one who doesnt care for watermelon flavor?
Of all the “red” flavors, watermelon is the most disappointing. Just give me cherry, strawberry, or raspberry. Far, far superior.
Some iffy candidates:
- root beer
- black licorice
- grape
Black licorice
I am Dutch and questioning the core of my existence now.
Don’t you guys have salted black licorice, too? That’s like the candy version of adding insult to injury.
Yes we have Grasshoppermouse, and to us it is like salted caramel.
ok but its really nothing like salted caramel…
that salmiak is ammonium chrloride, not sodium chloride which is whats in salted caramel… and salted caramel is balanced between salty and sweet. I’ve had sweedish salmiak candy that is essentially a hollow cylinder of licorice that melts to a point that it dumps a quarter teaspoon of ammonium salt onto your tongue. no salted caramel comes anywhere near that, and for gods sake why would it
Root beer barrels come to mind. Obviously black licorice has it’s own candy. Usually I see grape flavored fun dip and pop rocks
I liked root beer barrels but haven’t seen them in decades.
Depending where you’re at in the US, Huck’s gas stations have them
Whatever these orange “peanuts” are
Ah, the texture of fine styrofoam and the flavor of nearly extinct fruit shaped like a cartoon depiction of the least memorable circus snack. Truly a champion among sweets.
they taste like disappointment.
That’s the taste of shortsighted capitalists driving a species to near extinction in pursuit of a profit!
You never see my man kiwi without that damn upstagin’ strawberry
Orange
As a certified Orange Enjoyer, it always perplexed me how other kids were always so ready to trade away their orange Starburst.
As someone who also thinks the pink ones are way overrated, though, it ultimately didn’t matter to me, because li’l me was out there making some deals
Is it the flavor of the orange fruit or the flavor of the color orange? n o o n e k n o w s
FWIW the fruit was named first and is the source of the name for the color, so by that logic the flavor should be the fruit
Onion.
It’s in almost everything; but almost nobody claims it to be their favorite.
onion flavoured candy is the best
Archie McPhee is cheating. They have ketchup hard candies among other incredible atrocities.
Sadly it looks like they no longer have the Nihilist ‘mints’ that taste like nothing.
I don’t understand the question
My sense is it’s getting at “what’s an overated candy flavor”
Grape
I’ll take the grape ones if you don’t want them.
Particularly Pixie Stix. Grape’s the best flavor of those.
Yeah, wtf? Grape is fantastic. Its literally the flavor “purple”.
Lime? Don’t see a lot of lime candy all by themselves.
Butter too. So many candies include butter, but it’s rarely hyped as the star flavor.
What about butterscotch, though?
