With Halloween around the corner, the big debate about which candy is best to give out is back again.
Some kids grew up receiving Hershey's, others Midnight Milky Ways, and unlucky ones went on a door step screaming "Trick-or-Treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat" with no answer, and left treatless until the next door.
However, growing up, it wasn't the good ol' king size Snickers bar that was the jackpot. It was the lip puckering, face cringing, eye watering sour candies that would make my Halloween.
So below are the sour candies that you can give to me this Halloween in hopes of making my day:
1. Air Heads Xtremes
These long bands of sour and sweet candy give a nice little zing to young'uns craving a little pucker in their life.
2. Warheads
The original lip puckers will never get old, just don't take too many at a time.
3. Sour Patch Kids
Sour then sweet, you see it all the time in the commercials. However, you know someone is a real one if they hand out Sour Patch Watermelon.
4. Shockers
Yes, I know they're now Sweet Tart Sours, but c'mon, I spent a good 19 years of my life calling them shockers, so I'm gonna stick with the OG name. Y'all know what I'm talking about, yummy blasts of sour artificial citrus flavor.
5. Toxic Waste Bubble Gum
So it was 4th grade, and I found these on a door step that said "take one". After taking one and trying it out, lets just say I went to that door step multiple times during the rest of that Halloween night. Since then, I've found myself crawling through those really bright colored candy shops as a grown man looking for them. These are definitely the national treasures of sour candies.
