| No doubt about it: chocolate. They have a type of chocolate
called I THINK "godiva" chocolates at Hebert's that are very
creamy and very rich. Too rick. Hmmm, godiva chocolates are
probably the brand name of some other killer great [expensive]
chocolates. What is the name....damn, I can't remember...

| Godiva is the name of a famous chocolate shop in NYC ... I believe it's
on 5th Avenue. Incredibly rich, and equally expensive.

Friday, we have a donut day, and when things get really tense, we start gummy
bear wars. There's a five pound bag of 'em in one cube on each of the three
rows of cubes our group occupies. Yup, sugar is life, and life is

Chocolate and peanut butter!!!!!!
Not the Reeses kind either, just a regular chocolate bar (prefer Nestle milk
chocolate for this) with creamy Skippy (or Jiff) lopped on top!! Yummm!!

PS: I discovered this while living in Spain - since they did not have Reeses
there, I improvised!

yeah, once when I was in junior high my friend and I cut school and hung out
at my aunts house while she was away. We discovered the art of emptying
bags of chocolate chips into jars of peanut butter and going at them with a
spoon. Twas quite enjoyable. Too enjoyable, I can still remember that tummy
ache and trying to explain it to my mom! :-)

293.10 | sweet blossom come on, we can have high times | MR4DEC::JHINE | Estimated Prophet | Fri Aug 28 1992 17:49 | 9 |
| My favorite sugar fix sources come in two varieties. Not necessarily in
order , 1. Those candies from vermont shaped like maple leaves and
earthy things made out of maple syrup, brown sugar, and butter, those
are the only three ingredients. The ultimate sugar high. 2. the
swirled white and milk chocolate candies shaped like seashells, I think
they are french but you can get them all over pretty easily. The
creamiest chocolate fix I've ever had!!!!

293.12 | DONUTS!!! | SPOCK::IRONS | | Mon Aug 31 1992 09:59 | 12 |
| Well, I gotta say, my favorite is DONUTS!!! All kinds except lemon
filled.
I get the best of all worlds with donuts: fat, cholestoral, and sugar!!
That, with regular exercise, I can keep the same level of fat on my
body for years; no more, no less!!
I also love dark chocolate, pecan pie, and toll house cookies. Pecan
pie is sooo easy to make: corn syrup, sugar, vanilla, butter, pecans,
pie crust. One hour in the oven!!

| Reese's peanut butter cups. A lot of people like these, don't they? Must
be that magical combination of chocolate and peanut butter.
Chocolate-chip cookies.
God help me - those heavily-frosted square apple pies that come in a package
of two (Drakes or Hostess?). They are a sweet sticky preservative-laden death.

Flake!! Alright.
But now I'll have to head into downtown Nashua for a Flake fix (the
store that sells British stuff usually has them). There is (or maybe
was) a chocolate coated Flake that is also 'pretty good' (doesn't
disintegrate as much when you bite it).
Another fave is 'Tim Tams' (these are from Australia). Two chocolate
cookies around a chocolate center, covered in chocolate (do you detect
a trend here?). Best served chilled.

Blue 4 3 Nice tounge stain!
Purple 5 5 Frootarific!
Orange 5 5 Sweet-tart-like!
Green 2 4 "Wimpy" (Comment by Dave Levy)
Since we both thought purple and orange were each the best, we tried mixing
them. It doesn't make for a good combo, since the puple overwhelms the orange,
leaving a disappointing chalkiness (blech).

We did encounter a half-pint Good-n-Frooti, but I would'nt really call that a

No - runts aren't good-n-fruitys. They're sweet-tart kinda candy
coated with hard stuff. They're in the shapes of fruits they're
supposed to taste like - banana, cherry, strawberry, lime, orange.
Willy Wonka makes them, along with everlasting gobstoppers.
There's a candy store in the peasant lane mall that sells them bulk.
Atomic fireballs are good too - the best are the genuine Ferrara Pan
brand. Usually the big ones are hotter than the small ones.

| Munchies - got some in England and they were great. Like a Rolo
(another favorite) only square with a bit of cookie inside.
Skor - much better than a Heath bar, and they're really yummy with
vanilla ice cream.
Frozen Charleston Chew - I never liked them at room temp but frozen and
smashed up they were great. The store in my high school used to sell
them frozen.
Dove chocolate - I think this is the best mass-produced American
chocolate.
Giant sweet tarts - do they still make these? Used to get 2 or 3 in a
pack for a dime. All I've seen now are giant chewy sweet tarts but
they aren't the same. Anyone remember giant pixie stix? Two feet long
for a dime. I must be old remembering all these dime candies.
Peanut butter M&M's. My favorite of the new flavors.

| Haba�eros actually aren't as hot as I'd though they'd be.
Sure, they pack a whollop, but they are *tasty*! I've recently
had some fresh ones, which were pretty darn hot. At home I have
a bottle of crushed, dried Scotch Bonnett/Haba�ero blend for pizza,
pasta, etc. Great stuff! Much better than the weak run of the mill
crushed red peppers.
Actually, I have heaping bags full of snickers, milky way's,
and three musketeers for the kiddies, plus a 3-trillion count
BJ's Warehouse size bag of tootsie-rolls. I hope the tootsie
rolls go first ;-)

Fruit Roll-ups. Blechh!!! Nothing like the shoe leather of my youth. These are
similar, but there are two important differences...
o Fruit Roll-ups come in sheets with are perferated with patterns, some
quite labyrinthine; their only redeeming factor.
o They don't melt in your mouth at all. In fact, they stick to
everything, even the roof of your mouth. They would more aptly
be called shoe glue.

I walked over to the vending machine a little while ago, intent on feasting on
some delightful candy bar, when I spotted, much to my surprise a Hershey's
with almonds. Elated, I reached into my pocked and pulled out a rumpled dollar
bill and stuffed it (facing correctly) into the slot...it spat back out. No
problem. I reached into my pocket and fumbled around for change, only to find
$.45...a nickel short of the required half a buck. Fearing that were I to
venture downstairs for change (my colleagues were nowhere to be found) I would
return and find the object of my desire gone, snatched by another salivating
snack seeker, I took that rumpled dollar bill and smoothed it out and carefully
slipped it into the slot which was waiting eagerly to deny me my treat..it spat
it back out, snickering with delight. Unruffled I smoothed that sucker out once
again and carefully (painfully so) slipped it into the machine, my hand waiting
for the certain rejection of the rumpled greenback..BUT much to my delight, it
slipped out of sight, followed by the kerplunking of 2 quarters into the change
receptacle..ahah! I exclaimed, anticipating the joy of biting into that choco-
late/almond delight. And, a bonus! There was another, that had been hiding
behind the original bar! I retrieved the 50 cents from my pocket and plunked
it into the machine, watched as the candy bar tumbled to the bottom awaiting
my grasp..
I ate the first one right away...and left the other one for a later snack..
an event which transpired just moments ago...
A delightful end to a rather crazy day...

Today at lunch Fog gave me "the mother of all jawbreakers". The thing is
very close to 2" in diameter and has been compared to a cue ball. ;^)
one of the guys in my group got excited and slammed it against one of the
steal IBeams at the window - we gave � back to Mike (who is indubitably
enjoying it right now) and we broke up another � for ourselves. I give
this organization an hour before we are all buzzing on the sugar.. ;^)
oh yeah - per Fog's request I rate the middle pink layer and green outter layer
(of the 312 different layers) the highest. :-)
