Worst candy you've ever eaten?

Worst candy you've ever had and if you could reverse time and never have taken a bite, you would?

[Xero_Daxter]

I always think of wafers as a candy bar and a cracker hybrid.

not me.. and some van houten REAL chocolate power (nothing but 100% cocoa powder..
I love that stuff and often add it to my coffee (again without adding any sugar..

the only issue with that power is it is dry.. without the cocoa fat... or some liquid added.. but no sugar needed at all.

I'm pretty sure historically they used to mix it with like blood and spicy peppers down in the ol' Aztec times.

The whole thing about it being a sweet is fairly modern, relatively.

another candy I really hate is : after dinner..

mint and chocolate.. TERRIBLE.. like eating cholate covered toothpaste..

I like mint.. I am dutch.. pepermint is one of our mayor national candies... no church service without passing along the peppermint candy to suck on during the sermon..

but mint + chocolate NO NEVER! banish it!

That sounds really awful, a crime against mint

They melted it and heated it above the boiling point to make cement for their buildings. Pretty sure I saw this on Nat. Geo or some similar show/channel.

invented by us dutch btw;)

van houten.. yes the same van houten firm that still sells cocoa powder today..
is the one that invented to process to split cocoa into it's solids (cocoa powder) and it's fats (cocoa butter)
-> and used this to create the first chocholate bars..

the dutch laws on what something must contant to be called
**cocoa phantasia
**chocolate
**pure chocolate
**milk chocolate
**white chocolate

are the oldest in the world and over 300 years old..

**I have to add that like a decade ago.. the eu court made a ruling for these same lables... to be applied for all the eu.. and while belgium and the netherlands wanted OUR ancient norms to be applied.. the rest of the eu voted for much less strict defenitions..

meaning that LEGALLY you now can sell chocolate in the netherlands as chocolates if it matches the eu norms..
-> but most dutch and belgians refuse to accept that and quality chocolateers still sell the old dutch standard that for over 3 centurites until 2015 orso.. was the law..
**sometimes sold as belgian chocolate.. but thats not a protected term.. sadly though some try to get it recognised in the eu...


let me tell you that basicly 99.99% of what is sold as chocolate in the world would NOT be legal to be called chocolate let alone pure, white or milk chocolate by the classic dutch standard. and much of it would not even qualify as cocoa phantasia..

Pretty much any chocolate I ate in America. I mean what even is that crap? It's awful. :steamlaughcry:

You've only been to the north part of America, it seems.

Brazil has amazing candy.

Try out brigadeiro and bem-casado.

it is not.. basicly it means "it contains come cocoa solids but it has nothing to do with chocolate.. it's trash"

like how if a made a product with 0.33% steak and 99.66% junk added to it..
could be called "meat phantasia"

**can't find this game for sale anybody.. chocolatier 1 is on steam for sale though. (not in my currency.. only those paying in usd can still get chocolatier 1... it was listed before regional pricing and the published went bust. so. the IP was sold off at auction alongside a gazillion other ones.. and the investors who bought it don't do anything with it

neither do they do anything with the westwards games.. the other chocolatiers games.. tradewinds games.. virtual villagers games.. fish tycoon and plant tycoon..

to bad those were nice little classics

there did excist pirared versions perhaps you can google for it (bigfishgames.. chocolatier 2)
though it is very unlikely to find somebody still sharing a file for a 25 year old game..

(thats the curse of anything pirated... you can find ANYTHING pirated BEFORE it is even for sale.. as in movies before they are in your nation in cinema.. games before release date etc..
but if you want anything thats just so old nobody is legallys elling it anymore... aka when morally it would be defenciple to pirate as there is no longer any other way to obtain it.. it is VERY hard to find anybody sharing a file for it...

MAYBE this works... I leave it upto you to try..

https://oldgamesdownload.com/chocolatier/

heck the very site bigfishgames that the publhiser used to release their games trough no longer excists (well not in the shape it used to and it no longer list anything it used to list)

Atomic Fireballs.
Heavy spicy cinnamon on an extremely hard marble of pure sugar.
Sometimes I put them in a glass of water and let them soak overnight. Then I drink the water and toss the ball, unless its soft enough to chew into a powder.
