When it comes to candy, I’m not really into it. Except chocolate, of course. Let’s not be ridiculous. But when it comes to candy that doesn’t involve chocolate, like manufactured-out-of-sugar candy, I’m not all that much of a fan. You know like, Lifesavers, lollipops, Skittles, Mike and Ike … I could live without that stuff.

However, I’m kind of intrigued by Easter candy. Like marshmallow peeps. Mushy sugar covered in crunchy sugar? Okay! I probably won’t eat any peeps this Easter unless I’m explicitly confronted by one, because I try not to purposely seek out opportunities to get fat (except if you count last night’s attack of the pizza) but I can certainly imagine chewing on one of these delightful little chickens.

These chickens just scream, "Bite me!"

And carrying on with the chicken theme, Cadbury cream eggs are a repulsive idea. They involve chocolate though, so that caught my attention. Now I need to ask, what freakish food scientist has the batty little noggin to cook up such an idea? However, I love these conceptually disgusting things.

And what about the old school, classic jelly bean. You’d typically find these things nestled in Easter grass at the bottom of your basket.

I hate them, and they should be outlawed.

However, I can make an exception for Jelly Belly, because the wonderous variety of creative flavors doesn't need explaining.

Although... Jalapeno? Really?

I suppose I’ve just wandered out of the realm of Easter candy, so I'll stop now. Happy Easter, if it’s what you celebrate. Tell your family ‘hi’ for me.
