candy for breakfast

I've come to a sad realization. I think I may be addicted to candy. Not addicted in an "I love it and I like to eat it all the time" kind of way, but in an "it's 3pm and I haven't eaten candy yet and I'm going crazy kind of way". Like some kind of physical dependency. I place the blame entirely on school for dictating what was always terrible eating habits. Maybe I should have seen this coming back in January of 2010 when I caved in 3 days in to a month long candy-free challenge, and made out with a certain person who's name rhymes with gramy.

Now that I've come to the realization that until A and E's intervention gets ahold of me or I develop diabetus that I will never kick this habit. So I need to find a way to further profits off this addiction. So thus begins my weekly review of candy, new ones, old ones, foreign ones, stale ones, you name it I'll eat it.

These are my crack. My kryptonite. My all time favorite candy (of this month). I've been on a life brand sour gummy worm kick for awhile now. I get depressed when they're sold out, and I grossed out my co-worker the other day when I ate an entire bag for lunch. Because there was a two bags for $4 deal I couldn't help myself, except that there was only one bag of these left. So I reluctantly took a bag of sour peach rings, and as I ate them for breakfast this morning I felt a longing for the gummy worms.

The life brands take on the worms are the best. Although the almighty Bulk Barn has a take on them, they fall short of sub-par. I will eat them like crack too, but I would like to remind you that that sort of behaviour is based solely on my ever-present need for sugar. I would say that the bulk barn worms seem to absorb the taste of the bags they're in, resulting in them tasting like plastic bags. Life brands taste like heaven.

I give them *****/5 stars. I would give it 6 stars, but then I may lose my credibility as a professional candy reviewer.

Next week's cand review will pay homage to Twerpz, and the efforts there-after made to replace them.
