What are Rockets?  Don't think I've heard of those before.

Ahh yes, now I remember. Americans will know Rockets as "Smarties". For us in Canada they are marketed as "Rockets". Smarties in Canada are candy similar to M&M's (candy coated chocolate).

Reese's Big Cups are perhaps my favorite right now.  As for something not chocolate....well, it used to be the Altoid Tangerine Sours.  But I haven't seen them in stores for a while....maybe I need to look harder. 

I'm weird yes ;)

my wife loves black Licorice.  Yuck!  I LOVE the red too Kenny.  I never have liked the black kind, too bitter. 

My son Andrew loves Twizlers.  The cherry ones.

Yeah I like black licorice also.. but not as much as red. I like the peel and pull ones from Twizlers I think.

Only two types of candy taunt me...I can't refuse them, though my low carb life-style demands that I do. Maybe it's the peanuts. My family was, until a few years ago, comprised mostly of peanut farmers.

Peanut M&Ms
Reeses Peanut Butter Cups

I'm not much for eating candy but if I do I like the Milky Way Dark, Snickers, Strawberry Twizzlers and sometimes Black licorice.

If I can afford it my very favorite candy in the entire world is the Orange Cremes from Angel and Phelps chocolatier in Daytona Beach, Florida. Absolutely the best chocolate cremes I have ever had.

I like TWIX, I think that is my favorite Chocolate bar. I like Red Licorice as well, usually only eat that when I go to Movies.

I also like something up here in Canada called Jos.Louis, which is a sponge choclate cake with creme filling coated with Chocolate. Actually got one today when I was buying Lottery tickets

I always liked May West better the Jos Louis. My brother loved Jos Louis so much he had us try to ship him a box when he moved from Montreal to California. Needless to say he received a box of crushed Jos Louis particles.

I don't have a particularly sweet tooth but I'm a sucker for anything with cinnamon and thanks to the delights that is Cyber Candy (http://www.cybercandy.co.uk/aaasmt/) I am addicted to cinnamon altoids!
