Very Sour Candies...

I admit. I'd been fooled. SweetHarts Sour is NOTHING like Sour Patch Kids.











There, ya bastard. happy?

They haven't made a candy that was sour enough to suit me yet. Sour Patch Kids are...well, they're child's play. Or eating.

You need to stop using that word. I'm beginning to remember how old you are.

The hospital gift shop at Presbyterian had a number of retro candies available. I was too preoccupied with the pretzel selection to notice this, but my sister hit it. Luckily, she also does not like things like Neeco Wafers. She scored a box of Lemonheads. After a fairly gentle lemony intro, those bad boys get some sour on.

Lemonheads are real candy. As are NECCO wafers.

Warheads, while cool, are just regular candies dipped in absorbic acid.

hey, 'warheads pwn' was more the meaning i was looking for than 'warheads are cool', you know? and 'own' sucks, pwn is the only way to spell it.

SweetHarts Shockers are pretty sour---however, one of the ingredients is 'carmine color' which is a bug--a BUG--that they grind up to give foods red, blue and purple colors. So. I won't be eating them anytime soon.

My guess is that over 90% of the food you eat contains bugs, live or dead, ground up or whole.

Leet is a kind of slang where typos and similar characters are used to represent real words.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leetspeak for more info.

Yikes. I'm feeling my age now. I guess I have seen/used simple leetspeak but didn't know there was so much, or how old it was. Thanks. Wikipedia r0x

As a person who doesn't like spicy or sour foods, could someone explain to me what makes them so appealing? Don't they give some minute kind of pain or discomfort? I'm going to stick with my tame little Skittles and Jolly Ranchers.
