Orange Halloween kissies. A horror remembered from my childhood. They came wrapped in twists of wax paper with orange pumpkins and black witches and cats printed on it. You unrolled the kissie (as they were called) and found this little blob of plastic that had a faint orange tinge to it. When you put it into your mouth, and started to chew it, this horrible flavor burst forth, a cross between plastic and citrus. They were almost inedible, but we were kids and we could eat anything. I shudder to remember it.
Add candy corn to that. One year as a kid, I puked after eating candy corn and still get nauseous seeing it today.
oh god
My Halloween kisses were basically peanut butter taffy and were good.
