Your parents got XPEL Ultimate for you as an infant.

that universal yums site is fire!!

I just found a box of junior mints in my pantry - forgot how awesome mint + chocolate is (best ice cream flavor of all time imo).

the mints they kept in dishes with spoons at the country club we went to after church were so damn good.

Also - try these if you haven't already - the texture is

Am I the only one here addicted to Necco wafers? Had 'em as a kid, then rediscovered 'em in the mid-1980s, then re-rediscovered them a year or two ago.

I remember those. Haven't had them since I was a kid but they were good.

M&M peanuts are always at the top of my craving. Costco sells a large bag of them and I refrain from buying them most days.

Wine gums are one of my weaknesses. Among many.

Chocolate covered almonds, toblerones, toffifee, and turtles are also up there.

oooh toblerones are so good

My wife and I were in Switzerland over 9 years ago for the first part of our honeymoon... And to this day we still rave about the chocolate we had back then. Ended up spending over $300 in chocolates within a day while over there (which, if you've ever been to Switzerland, means $300 gets you about a couple chocolate covered almonds).

My first box of Universal Yums came yesterday. South America.

Thanks for the tip.

I think it's a fun monthly ritual. I hope you enjoy it too!

Those are really good actually! Best gummie bears I have had. My favorite candy is Hot Tamales and Jelly Belly's

I'm not a huge desserts/candy person normally, but Sour Strips have been my weakness lately.

I haven't had a butterfinger in such a long time. They're delicious but getting peanut butter splinters in the back of my teeth was unpleasant.

I was a Now&Later dealer in elementary school in the 70s. They could (and did) rip out fillings

Are you forgetting about heath bars, mary janes and bit O honey ?

Heath was in my original list. Not a filling-removal device in my book though. MJ and BoH just weren't in my wheel house.

Now, if you have a bad tooth, Big Hunk <drops mic, and a few teeth>
