are those gummy bears wrapped in a fruit roll-up breakfast burrito but yeah everything in life
has a good side and a bad side sadly candy is not an exception to that rule you might think
that something this sweet and delicious could do no wrong but you would be fooling yourself
here are the top 10 worst candies ever made ranked part two laffy taffy the vine they're laffy taffy
if you want a candy that's ridiculously annoying to eat laffy taffy is the perfect candy for you
they're not so bad in taste granted but the overall struggle you have to go through to
be able to enjoy one is just simply not worth it his liver looks healthy that's a word of laughing
effort sticky gummy and viscous isn't exactly the appealing description you're looking for when in
search of a sweet treat in addition to every single bite getting stuck to your teeth laffy
taffy doesn't have a very refined texture yes they used to be big back in the day and were advertised
as having a long lasting flavor but that's all in the past they have had their 15 minutes of fame
no one wants a trip to the dentist to get their fillings redone after one bite of these slimy
sticky sticks you really need to floss more if you're still set on eating laffy taffy but care
about your dental well-being here's a little tip for you use a hair dryer it sounds weird i know
but some people have said that heating up the candy softens it a bit making it safer to eat
raisin nets more like raisin not oh wait when you're in there will you get me some snow caps
raisin that's raisins who has ever gotten excited to find out that it's not chocolate chips in your
oatmeal cookie but raisins okay some of you might have there's no judgment here but usually raisins
are not exactly people's favorites do you like raisin nets take them or leave them this is why
chocolate lovers are generally appalled with this weird kooky combination of chocolate and raisins
made by the ferreira candy company raisin nets are not the only variation of the dried up treat
there's a whole other bunch of dried fruit covered in chocolate like cranberries and cherries cover
anything in chocolate and it becomes that much better i guess if you're one of those who actually
enjoy raisins worry not you won't get laughed at if you eat some in public but you'll most likely
get labeled as the health nut instead of the cool kid who brings treats like cupcakes and brownies
for everyone it's sad that the healthiest candies are almost always the ones that don't taste as
good because raisins are fruit but maybe just not the kind you would bring to a fondue dinner party
fondue an old creation from the 1920s that maybe should have stayed there double bubble trouble
over double bubble you're crazy this famous chewing gum brand mostly seen around halloween
and in baseball dugouts is as old as time it was created in 1928 by walter diemer an accountant
whose hobby was creating bubble gum recipes double bubble has since become america's top selling
wrapped gum and an overall icon i'm kind of a big deal but just because something is iconic doesn't
always mean that it's for the right reasons a pink hard as rock and ready to break your jaw treat
isn't exactly the best way to reach the top of the charts but hey it seemed to have worked for this
one it broke my tooth the flavor is there for maybe four to five chews and then it disappears
and you're left with a stale piece of rubber to chew on to put your teeth and jaw muscles through
this torment is a grueling process that doesn't give you much of anything in return flavorless
insipid and flat double bubble probably shouldn't be your go-to if you're looking for something
that'll satisfy your craving for bubble gum but for those die hards keep on chewing almonds joy
would you like an almond joy you either love coconut or you hate it and that's why almond joy
is on this list a milk chocolate bar filled with almonds and coconut chunks doesn't exactly sound
like the type of candy bar that would please a large crowd why not consider an almond joy finally
a real suggestion if she doesn't like coconut you're screwed the overpowering coconut flavor and
freaky pasty texture of the almond joy have been the cause of many awkward facial expressions since
the first introduction of the treat in the 1940s whether it's the over sweetness or the glue-like
texture of the coconut center almond joys seem to never fully satisfy the public and is still
pretty much the butt of jokes in the candy world except for that one famous catchy jingle no one
really gives a second thought to this candy bar and yet you would always find some at the bottom
of your trick or treat bag as a kid trick or treat smell my feet there was always that one
household in your neighborhood who wanted to be healthier than anyone else and thought almond
joys were it yes the almonds make it healthier than a regular candy bar but is it really worth
compromising the taste if you like almond joy be true to yourself and embrace it just don't expect
everybody else to jump on the bandwagon sixlets but god think i'm just a hardshell chocolate candy
basically knockoff m m's sixlits are allegedly disappointingly dry and underwhelming
it's hard to imagine dry chocolate but yet these little round balls fit the bill many have claimed
to dislike the low quality of the chocolate found inside and would rather buy the real thing
rather than these wannabe m m's oh i'm the real deal they're just not the kind of candy you get
excited about receiving as a gift made by oak leaf confections a company based in ontario canada
sixlets come in various colors like red yellow green blue and orange they also have many
holiday variations like white and pink ones on valentine's day happy valentine's day
hard-shelled packed with sugar and lacking in actual flavor it's easy to see why sixlets aren't
among the most popular candies out there although sixlets bring back childhood memories for many
they just don't hold up to today's standards and sadly seem to have not withstood the test of time
and unlike m ms which melt in your mouth and not in your hands sixlits will definitely still melt
in your hands no doubts about it peeps i brought marshmallow peeps oh okay who doesn't enjoy a nice
slightly burned marshmallow over a campfire with your friends and family marshmallow
well if you take that same marshmallow and mix it with corn syrup then shape them into little
animals you might get these unbelievably sweet treats the peeps these mushy gooey and somewhat
scary-looking marshmallows aren't exactly the peak of candy creation in fact they might just be the
opposite peeps are described to have a grainy and freakish texture far from a campfire experience
available in all sorts of shapes like bunnies and chicks these little sticky treats have now
taken over all holidays and they just keep on coming at us with new and disturbing flavors
each sounding worse than the last sour lemonade party cake bubble gum the best or worst part is
you can even find peep flavored milk marshmallow milk no god please no no oh and another thing
peeps are almost impossible to destroy honestly some people have declared the candy indestructible
and have carried out tests to see what could get one to break nothing could do it from burning to
dissolving using smoke or liquid nitrogen nothing worked that says a lot about what we're willing
to put in our bodies for a taste of sweetness undestroyable madness smarties the smarties
that freak people out canadian fans settle down we are not talking about your beloved
chocolate candy covered smarties these are actually quite tasty yeah i'm from saskatchewan
what's up in canada but for americans yes we are talking about the smarties you're thinking of you
know those chalky dry looking tablets you would pop in your mouth as a kid and pretend you were
taking your medicine these smarties have been out in the world since the late 1940s and are still
for some reason in circulation today most likely to be found at the bottom of your trick-or-treat
bag as a kid these candies aren't exactly the most interesting when it comes to flavor
sure they all come in different aesthetically pleasing pastel colors like baby pink yellow
and purple but ultimately they all taste exactly the same boring and blanched not only do they look
like medicine but they also taste like it i hope you like the taste of ringworm medicine although
one thing on the plus side is that smarties were confirmed to be vegan black licorice i have some
good news and some bad news great black licorice almost no one likes black licorice it's like
a common acknowledgement really the bitter and sour taste of the first bite is enough to send
shivers down your spine and convince you to not take another one this unique and rather disturbing
taste comes from the extract of the roots of the licorice plant glyceriza a mouthful i know oh boy
that's a tongue twister and is very similar to the taste of anise while we know candy isn't good for
your health and doesn't exactly contain a lot of nutrients black licorice can be potentially
harmful to the body if eaten in abundance turns out you really can overdose from eating candy
i ate too much plastic candy in 2019 a man with no history of heart problems suddenly collapsed and
died the culprit the two large bags of black licorice he ate every day for three weeks
the glycerizic acid from the plant extract can lead to a dangerously low
potassium level and cardiac arrest which is exactly what happened in this case now
obviously consuming a large amount of anything is never a good idea and everything should be taken
in moderation but the fda has warned people to stay away from black licorice if you have
any heart problems and to consume it with a lot of moderation how incredible a candy that
not only tastes bad but that can also lead to your death exactly what you're looking for when
in need of a sweet treat pixie stix thank you but we're not allowed oh it's okay there's no
sugar in pixie stix pixie stix are literally just sugar in a straw that's it enough seen more i know
right packaged in wrappers that resemble drinking straws there's really only one way to eat one
you need to pour the entire thing down your throat and hope you don't get a sugar crash right after
it was put on the market in the late 1950s and was derived from another powdered candy lick-a-made
which was later modified and became what we know today as fun dip in any case the primary goal
of this candy is most likely to offer the most sugar possible and to do it in the least original
fashion knowing full well that my true love is efficiency for a while there was even a giant
pixie stix which was over 15 inches long a little too monstrous for modern days it was eventually
discontinued but it's still a scary thought that all this sugar could be consumed by only one
person pixie stix is still a fairly popular candy and is apparently the state of georgia's
favorite halloween candy gushing a load of powdered sugar from a colored plastic straw
might be both one of the least original yet easiest ways to consume candy candy cigarettes
they were thought to encourage impressionable children to smoke how dumb do they think we are
just by the name you can tell why these made it to the number one spot on our list of worst candy
this candy is either made out of chalky sugar bubble gum or even chocolate and while they are
not laced with tobacco they still come wrapped in paper and carton packages mimicking a pack of real
cigarettes a long week to quit some products even contain hidden powdered sugar so that kids could
blow smoke out of their cigarette now that doesn't sound sketchy following some heated controversies
candy cigarettes were banned in most countries but are somehow still being sold in the u.s of a
while the name did change to candy sticks in parts of the world where it's still legal
many brands kept the original disputed packaging introducing children to smoking even if it's just
pretend at such a young impressionable age doesn't exactly send the right message this is like bad
