What is your favorite type of candy and when did you realize it was your favorite? For me, its the orange, yellow, and brown colors of Reeces Pieces. For as long as I can remember I have always liked Reeces. Its the chocolate peanut buttery goodness of every bite. For most people candy recollection stems back to childhood where they came across something so good, that they could never get enough of it. For me, I was allergic to corn so I didn’t get much candy when I was a kid. Almost all candy is made from corn sugar so that ruled it out. Hell that ruled out most sweets. But one of the main reasons I like it is because of my dad. I’d be in the car with him and he’d stop and by some candy, most of the time it was Reeses Pieces. He’d open the bag and pour some in my hand and then pour some in his hand and drive on. It was those small moments of joy that I got to enjoy candy that engraved the love for the little bite size bastards.
