Candy Porn

I've professed my love of Candy Corn before.



I've raved about the tasty white tip and how they should sell a bag of nothing but those white tips.

But no. No one is ever satisfied with just the tip -- they want the whole thing.

Candy corn is plenty satisfying by itself but again some people always want more. So they to add salty nuts to the mix.



I'm okay with this mix, we got the all important tip, the thicker base of orange and yellow and the salty nuts.

But is that enough for some? No, they gotta take things to a perverse level by adding even more ingredients.


Come on no one like crumbs getting all over their tip. Get those Wheat Chex out of there. And look at those candy corns with the brown bottoms. For the love of all that is holy, that is just gross. And those plastic, synthetic candy corn-esque pumpkins? They are not real candy corn. they over sized impostors.Why add a foreign object like this to the party? Let the real thing do the trick.

You have a warped and occasionally sinister sort of genius, my friend. And yes, you may use that as a book endorsement.

I'm with you on this one Travis.

Ugh. Gilda would get along with you just fine. She bought her own bag of candy corn with her own money a few days ago.

Yay for pure Candy Corn! I have no idea what they are but they look good - without the other bits (although the pumpkin sweets are quite cute!). Take care

You're a purist but then, SOMEONE has to have standards in this crazy world.

Steve Skinner said...

I agree, the corn alone is near perfection. Why mess it up with additional stuff.

I LOVE candy corn. I'm good with adding the nuts, but there is no need to try to make a Chex party mix out of them. That's just wrong.

Mark- I'll take genius anyway I can get it and when THE FEEDSTORE CHRONICLES comes out I's be eternally greatful to see a comment like that up as an amazon review.

Ricky - Glad I'm not the only purist.

Sybil - Smart kid.

Old Kitty - What kind of country do you live in that does not sell candy corn?

Debra- That's me pure at heart.

Steve- You tell 'em.

Cloudia - Howdy back at you.

Driller- See we Huskers and OU fans can agree on a few things.

They'll add lettuce next. ;)

I had no idea that the white parts tasted any different than the rest. Truly?
