The difference between a fresh Butterfinger & a stale one is night & day. You won't know till you get it alone. If it's fresh & flaky and you can bite thru it easily you're in for a treat. If it's stale, just get rid of it, don't torture yourself by attempting to eat it.
I'm old, but, I imagine I've had only perhaps 10 good ones my entire life.
I don't know if I've ever had one I like. Even super fresh, they just stick to your teeth too damn much.
shareThat's because it's stale. A fresh one won't do that. But, you can't find a fresh one. Hospital vending machines are a haven for fresh candy, but, now hospitals have goofy candy in them and health foods.
shareCan one order straight from the manufacturer? Now I'm curious if I've ever had fresh.
shareI don't know. Might be worth a try. You ain't lived till you've had a fresh Butterfinger. That thing sittin' there after you've bit it and it's all flaky is a beautiful sight, PR. Your mouth waters something fearsome.
shareYour Butterfinger prose is making me salivate already. It's like a dream yet unrealized.
shareCulburn, are you in the U.S.? All candy bars here have expiration dates on them now. I would try a spot that has a large stock of them, like a WalMart, and look through the pile for the most distant date. They usually have them at each checkout lane, so look through a few of them.
Happy hunting!
Liquorice allsorts, especially the ones with coconut. As a Dutch person I love liquorice, but that just tastes like vomit.
Ribbon Candy looks way cool, I'd like to try that!
I was so excited to try a Twinkie. Dang, that was disappointing, that filling is not tasty at all.
shareTwinkies are a bit of a let down...
Devil Dogs are pretty lousy too
...Just a heads up
I'm just gonna assume they are. How about Mint Patties? I always see them mentioned on tv shows.
sharePeppermint Patties are great
Try one plain
Or...Freeze a couple, dice them up with a good kitchen knife and sprinkle them over Vanilla ice cream
Its really good
Okay, but you should really send me some, cause I can't get them over here.😘
shareOk ill hand deliver them tomorrow
But i will expect an autographed photo WITH kissy face as a tip for my travels
Address: 123 Strat Lane, Sexy Beach, DutchyLand
Correct?
I'm a Dutchie, so that should be "Sexy Dyke". Remember the little Dutch boy who went around putting his finger into dykes because they were leaking??😜
shareI have no clue of such a tale and im so well read...
Anyway, Im rather naive and really new around here
Ill see you around noon...we should be done by midnight or so😍
Yep, the idea of the Twinkie is always better than the actual Twinkie.
shareHow about a deep fried Twinkie? Apparently they are good.
Hostess even pre-packages their own "deep fried" version: http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2016/08/12/hostess-launches-deep-fried-twinkies-as-first-frozen-treat/
Yeah, man. It seemed legendary, with lawyers even using it as a defense strategy. I expected something magical, but it really wasn't. Somehow I thought the filling would be more like marshmellow fluff and the cake more spongy.☹
shareI remember ribbon candy from when I was a kid. As usual, it was better than what we have today. Back then they were thin ribbons. Nowadays, the stuff I see it quite thick - no thanks.
I won't touch black licorice or anything flavored with black licorice. Yuck. Candy corn - which, for some reason, we called corn candy - is a big no, too.
Every single one of them
shareI don't like anything toffee. Heath bars are like that I think. I've only had one and it was terrible.
Never had Good & Plenty but ribbon candy ain't bad, if thats the only candy you got in the house.
