Lite ranting: yuck
Why do they keep making and selling this candy? Who likes it? To me, this "classic" candy redefines candy as something that tastes like medicine. The best part about it is the cute wrapper, the way the twist is green, like a strawberry leaf. (Are those green tufts on a strawberry plant called leaves?) The worst part about it is the way it tastes. Be gone, berry imposter. Be gone from our Halloween buckets, our doctor offices, our attractive bank lobbies. We need more room for root beer barrels!

I love these candies! :)
(I like them too.)
I, too, must admit that I pick them out of mixed candy bowls--I really like them:)
Freaks, all of ya!
:)
Ugh, I don't like them either. They are cute looking, but disappointing-tasting. :)
They remind me of buying penny candy at Dietman's Grocery as a child - getting a little brown bag and filling it with tiny tootsie rolls, these and other delights.
these, candy corn, smarties, all yucky........waxy pumpkin shapes, ick.
Mmm, candy corn...so bad, but so good.
I would rather eat dirt.
I have to admit I'll eat these in a pinch, as in "it is the only candy available". I actually like them if they have a soft-ish center, which is all the more appreciated when you suck the candy, not biting it. (I know, I'm a pathetic candy-aficionado!)
