3 Muskateers- Too rich, and it tastes like something's missing
Almond Joy- Ok, but too much coconut
Baby Ruth- Too chewy, takes forever to eat
Butterfinger- The inside sticks on your teeth
Payday- Too many peanuts
Mounds- Nasty
Mars- Ok, if you like walnuts (they left this market)
Hershey's- Too plain
Milky Way- Too plain also, but the caramel helps
Mr. Goodbar- Very good, a little bit too many peanuts, though.
Twix- Very good, one of my favorites
Snickers- The best, my favorite

3 Muskateers- One of my favorites--I kinda like how simple it is, not to mention chewy. I love the nougat
Almond Joy- I've just started liking this one. I love coconut.
Baby Ruth- Never has been a favorite--too many ingredients in it
Butterfinger- It's ok once in a while, but you're right--wayyy too sticky. I prefer the fun-sized bars.
Payday- Too many peanuts <--- agreed. I don't like them too much.
Mounds- Love 'em
Mars- Not sure if I've tried this one
Hershey's- you're right--too plain. I like it better with almonds.
Milky Way- I like it

Not my favorite, but still good
Twix- My favorite chocolate bar ever--the combination of wafer, caramel, and chocolate makes it yummy

Snickers- Not a fan--I don't really like overly nutty chocolate bars.

And I'll add two of my own

Kit Kats: LOVE them. They're light and crispy and GOOD.
Hershey's S'mores: One of the best out there. I love anything s'mores flavored

I'm not a chocholic person, but I do like "3 Musketeers," "Twix," "Kit-Kat," and "White Chocolate Nestlé Crunch." But...it's mostly just "3 Musketeers" and the white chocolate that I would consume. Those would be the only chocolate bars I really like/eat. There was a time late last year when I craved "Snickers," but that faded after a while.

SNICKERS: MY FAVE TOO KOOL!!!!!!
Almond Joy: I hate anything with coconut
Baby Ruth: Very good, but why does it have to be so messy and flake apart.
Butterfinger: Feels like when I chew, my teeth are going to get yanked out.
PayDay: I love the salt. Very good.
Mounds: YUCK!!!!
Hersheys: I hate all chocolate...it needs peanuts and stuff. Even Hersheys with almonds is too dull.
Milky Way: Too much caramel for me. But, I still eat it.
Twix: Nice cookie taste, very good
Musketeers: Very light, nice to eat when you need a pick me up without the added peanuts, caramel and other messy stuff.

I was going to post that, but then I would only be mentioning MARS bars, I wanted to include anything with walnuts...God, how I hate how they taste. So damn bitter.

theshark8777 · 08-16-2006, 08:59 PM

I miss Nestles Alpine white with almonds!

GARFIELDKOOL · 08-16-2006, 09:02 PM

Just a reminder, I went back and added Mr. Goodbar, I can't believe I left that one out.

Add more if you like

3 Musketeers- No thank you! I agree, it tastes like it's missing something.
Almond Joy- Just ok. I like coconut, but that's too much.
Baby Ruth- Good, but, like Irene said, they fall apart!!
Butterfinger- One of my favorites, although, I hate how it sticks to your teeth...
Payday- Pretty good. Caramel + salty peanuts =

Mounds- Ick. It's like a coconut overdose.
Mars- Never tried it...
Hersheys- Good, but I like Hershey with almonds a lot more.
Milky Way- Not bad, not a favorite, I'd eat it as a last resort.

Mr. Goodbar- Yummy! No complaints.
Twix- Very good. Perfect combination of chocolate and caramel. One of my favorites.
Snickers- Really good.

I'll add one: Charleston Chew- I love the chocolate ones, and the vanilla kind is damn good, too. Not really a fan of the strawberry flavor.

Ireneparalegal · 08-16-2006, 10:14 PM

I never heard of Charleston Chew...is it available only in certain parts of the U.S.?

dlemond · 08-16-2006, 10:35 PM

Favorite candy bars:

Reeses Peanut Butter Cups - they always left you wanting more though.

100,000 Bar - sometimes too chewy, but delicious

Twix - I remember when they came out, an instant favorite

Kitt Katt - classic, light and very tasty

Milky Way - not terribly exciting but good, and as a kid I used to get them frozen on the boardwalk. I can't ever forget that so it makes the list.

Snickers- a definite top 5, over all candy I ever bought I would bet this one was the most frequent.

Rosenberg's Peanut Chews - not too long ago they used to still sell these at the movie theaters. Great bite size pieces, chewy and tasty.

Zero Bar - and oddity that hasn't been around in a while (though you can order them through specialty places). Caramel, Peanut and Almond Nougat covered with White Fudge.

Marathon Bar - This is long gone. a chocoalte braid 8 inches long with caramel inside.

5th Avenue Bar - Similar to Butterfinger only better in my opinion.

Skor/Heath - chocolate covered toffee bars, fantastic. I want one right now.

I'm sure I'm forgetting something.
