Mars
Milky Way
too little chocolate, too much of that soft, fudgy center.

I still like Milky Way.
Three Musketeers is too little chocolate, too much foamy center stuff.

Not a bar really but I don't think I could ever eat Pop Rocks again.

My caramel standards are a lot higher now, as is my filling count.

There is no candy that I have outgrown.
Nostalgia compensates for substandard chocolate and ridiculous amounts of sugar.
Charms Pops at the movie theater, Astro Pops at Summer camp, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups at Easter.

Candy is still my friend. I've recently added Heath bars and their heavenly toffee goodness to my list of favorites that I never would have touched as a kid.

All of them. One day about 10 years ago I just stopped wanting sugar.

Not exactly a candy, but the whole idea of Scooter Pies now makes me gag.

I still like Milky Way too.
Neither of these are candy bars as such, but I'd be afraid to have Sugar Daddy or Milk Duds today. I'd need insulin after eating the former and dentures after eating the latter.

Can't think of any. I don't think I'd eat a Sugar Daddy today, but I don't think I liked them that much back then either.

Anthrax Ripple.
Tastes good... but the after effects are terrible.

THere's nothing for me -- my list of candies has grown during life, never shrinking.
