Okay, we admit it; we are candy junkies! Thankfully for us, June is National Candy Month so we get to excuse our sweet-tooth for an entire 30 days. I put myself on the stand alongside my co-workers to confess our sweet, guilty pleasures. Here are some of the tidbits we learned about Alice, Nikki, and me:
Alice:
What is your absolute-favorite candy of all time? I love candy so much that I have to segment this answer:
- Chocolate – Reeses
- Non-Chocolate – Haribo Gummy Bears
- Nuts – Dark chocolate covered almonds
- Bar – Hershey’s milk chocolate with almonds
How long has this love gone on for? It all started after I got married. Now let’s not read too much into that!
What is your favorite candy color? Red is my favorite color of any candy with colors.
Rate how much you eat it: Treat Snack Meal Love ADDICTION:
I am currently in recovery for an addiction to chocolate covered almonds.
Was there a previous candy that you ate so much or made you sick that you could never eat it again? I did ban gummy bears for a period of time for moral reasons, but I got over it. Can you say addict?
What is your LEAST favorite candy? Anything with mint.
Nikki:
What is your absolute-favorite candy of all time? Sour Patch Kids.
How long has this love gone on for? I have liked sour candy for as long as I can remember. I would always pick the sour candies over chocolate.
What is your favorite candy color? The red ones are for sure my favorite.
Rate how much you eat it: Treat Snack Meal Love ADDICTION:
I will only let myself buy them on occasion, so it is more of a treat. However, if I buy them or if someone else has Sour Patch Kids, I will devour them all like it is an addiction!
Was there a previous candy that you ate so much or made you sick that you could never eat it again? In middle school, I would buy the berry Skittles everyday for 3 years. I got really burned out on them and probably have not had any since then.
What is your LEAST favorite candy? I don’t really like Kit Kat bars because of the crispy wafer in the middle.
Ryan (me):
What is your absolute-favorite candy of all time? Jelly beans! I like to eat them one by one without looking so I can guess the color.
How long has this love gone on for? Since I was very little.
What is your favorite flavor/color? Though peach Jelly Belly’s are my favorite, red is typically my favorite color in most other candies.
Rate how much you eat it – Treat Snack Meal Love ADDICTION:
It’s a pretty ardent love I have for them. Though eating jelly beans is sort of a ritual for me, so I guess that could be a borderline addiction.
Was there a previous candy that you ate so much or made you sick that you could never eat it again? I used to love Gummy Savers so much I ate them every day. One day, I just stopped eating them.
What is your LEAST favorite candy? Anything with peanuts.
