We may be sour, but we know our sweets.

Haribo Fruity Frutti: Of COURSE it’s good

Posted by Matty On July - 30 - 2010

I found new Haribo. How often do Jonny and I bitch about there not being more types of Haribo? ALL THE TIME. And now there is. It’s really quite remarkable. Watch the vid and you’ll get revved up to seek out Fruity Fruttis. Trust me on this – they’re good.

Happy Goat Caramels: SO not Baaaad

Posted by Matty On April - 23 - 2010

Happy Goat Caramels – local SF, CA candy. These things whack you with a vanilla taste that shames any thing else describing itself as vanilla.

Grape Vines: They’re Purptastic!

Posted by Matty On April - 9 - 2010

These taste like purple, and it’s perfectly logical for today’s candy enthusiast to only want authentic, all natural, chardonnay-esque, only organic, non-fructose, raw cane grape candy. I feel you. But personally I love fake grape.

Sweet & Salty Corn Bits: Make Love to Them

Posted by Matty On March - 5 - 2010

See yourself as the John Mayer of new experiences? Someone who makes love to life like it’s crack cocaine? Then my friend — you are in for a world of tastiness with these choco covered corn nuts.

Umeboshi – No, They’re Not Shrunken Heads.

Salt. Sour. Sweet. Okinawa.

The best chocolate bar EVER?

Rowntrees Juicy Jellies, Yummy Smellies!

If they made cologne that smelled like these, I’d wear the hell out of it.

$100 says you can’t finish reading this review–it’s THAT long.

I’m fantasizing about a Big Hunk! ZING!!!!

Posted by Jonny On August - 15 - 2009

If it’s big, AND it’s a hunk, then usually that scares me.

I like to pretend it’s just me and these things, alone on an island. With air conditioning.

Fizzy. Balls. ‘Nuff said.

Oh, snap! Check these out, yo…

Don’t tell Dr. Drew: I’m addicted to Coke! (bottles)

Posted by Matty On February - 27 - 2009

Not all gummi coke bottles are created equal. Haribo ain’t run-of-the-mill cola taste. Plus the texture is delish.

Swiss Petite Fruit – My longest running candy obsession?

Posted by Jonny On September - 13 - 2008

No folks, that’s NOT marzipan you’re looking at

Tazzy Jazzy Pops!

Posted by Matty On September - 7 - 2008

Sour through and through. A very good buy.

I Love My Pickle

Posted by Matty On August - 27 - 2008

Might need to move to Europe to get these. But then it might be worth it. They got warm beer over there too.

Good & Plenty Are Both

Under-rated. Always. Don’t forget that.

Wonka Giant Chewy Sweet Tarts – I say Yes.

Posted by Jonny On August - 9 - 2008

These never fail to come through for me
