For the record, I wasn't allowed to go out trick-or-treating on Halloween without being heavily escorted for obvious reasons Mom; however, that didn't mean my uncles wouldn't load me up with candy for slowing me down.

08:  Whatchamacalit: Chewy, crunchy, savory sweet combination of peanut butter crisp and a caramel bar.
09:  Skittles: Sweet fruity deliciousness I will on occasion add to mixed drinks.
10:  Carmel Creams (Bull’s Eyes): Okay, these are a secret love of mine since I was six. Can’t tell you how often I ate them except to say, I’m eating some now.
11:  Everlasting Gobstoppers: Which layer is supposed to taste like snozberry?
12:  Pop Rocks and cola: Alright, while not officially a Halloween candy, in my opinion this urban legend is encapsulates the Halloween spirit.
13:  Atomic Fireballs: I use to have contests to see who could hold the most of these spicy threats in their mouth for the longest without flinching. A pyrrhic victory at best.
