Very Sour Candies... - Page 2

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.

Hoo boy, have I got a Jolly Ranchers for you then

I have not dared to try them yet, but I'm told they will definitely clear your sinuses. Our fans in Europe all want to try them just to say they survived the experience.

Small pain or discomfort can also trigger an endorphin rush.

I am allergic to coconut. But I did have paroxysms of joy in the Cracker Barrel Gift Shoppe upon finding BBBBats and honest-to-goodness rock candy in a box without coloring, flavoring, or strings.

On second thought, it was either paroxysms of joy or the prequelae of a heart attack brought on by chicken fried steak, two fried eggs over easy, home fried potatoes, grits, and biscuits with butter and gravy.
