What was your favorite candy bar when you were growing up and what is it now?

baby ruth...then and now.

Growing-up my favorite candy was Willey Wonka peanut butter crunch bars, they kicked ASS, now I'd have to say it's SNICKERS.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup first thing I reach for when in the mood for candy

ZERO BAR
THREE MUSKATEERS
MILKYWAY
ZAGNUT
PAYDAY

I never eat candy bars anymore, but I used to love Reeses Peanut Butter cups when I was little. But now I
just love .

When I was a kid, I used to like Hundred Thousand Dollar bars.

Now I like Hundred Grand bars.

Damn economy.

Mounds and/or Almond Joy - after it's been refrigerated! mmm

Mine would be either Snickers or Twix.

I used to love Summit, Marathon, and Chocolite bars when I was a kid. I don't think any of those are made anymore.

Now I like either 3 Musketeers or Snickers.

Marathon bars were great!

Yes, white chocolate is the best.

don't really like chocolate that much... but if i go for a candy bar
snickers or sometimes butterfinger... i like white chocolate, so sometimes i go for zero bar, or those "cookie & cream" things from hershey (i think)...

i like twix, and reese's pb cups... occasionally kit-kats... but none of those are really candy bars...




the chocolate edit starts here...

Yeah, when I was little I would always get those because besides being yummy, they were so damn BIG! I figured if my mom was letting me get a candy bar I'd get the biggest sized one possible..

In the last year or so I'd read they were going to start selling them again, but I've never seen them anyplace yet.

Didn't they have those great commercials where they would drip the chocolate and carmel from above into that braided pattern that the bars were in?

I always thought that was cool!

I don't like candy very much at all...But, when I do eat it, I will only eat a snickers...

OR...in a box of chocolate, the ones with coconut inside. Those own...

I think I remember that!! Wow, haven't thought of that in years!

I also used to like how the back of the wrapper was printed to looked like a ruler to show how it many inches long the candy bar was (12 inches?)

At the moment, Nutrageous and Twix caramel.

I loved marathon bars too, but my absolute favorite was Summit!! Oh, man I cannot believe they stopped making those bad boys...mmm

Now, not a big candy bar fan, but the new crunch bar with caramel is the shit... probably my favorite right now.

You wanna go back though... my favorite treat back in the eighties was the pudding filled pies made by hostess... oh my god... check this out... a vanilla filled pie, sweet hostess crust then covered with chocolate icing... they were great... again though some bastard decided to stop making them... so sad really!

Do ice cream candy bars count? If so, Snickers Ice Cream Bar.

Growing up: Baby Ruth
Now: Snicker Bar

Summit bars were sooo good!!! I used to get those all the time from my school snack bar.

I haven't tried the new Crunch bar with caramel but I've been meaning to. You're the first person I've seen/heard of that has tried it. Maybe I'll go out tonight and pick one up, now that I'm all in the mood for a good candy bar.

(I remember those Hostess pudding pies, too. Good stuff. How come all the really delicious stuff gets DISCONTINUED!?)
