Candy canes / myLot

I was shopping the other day, and went to get candy canes. I was amazed at how many choices there are. Starburst, Spree, Jolly Rancher, Mickey, Dora, cherry, chocolate mint, to name a few. It took me quite a while to choose. I only wanted to buy one box because we don't eat that many. I ended up with Spree, since I used to like the candy I figured they'd probably be good. What kind do you like? Any of the newer variety, or do you stick with the traditional peppermint?

I like chocolate peppermint...then I make a cup of hot cocoa and stir it with the chocolate peppermint candy cane! mmmm... I haven't tried any of the newest ones...we used to get blueberry and strawberry and such. I saw Jelly Belly candy canes...I couldn't believe it, how do you have a Jelly Bean flavored candy cane?

Peppermint in hot cocoa, that sounds tasty, I'll have to try that. Well, Jelly Bellies come in every flavor you can imagine, not just jelly bean flavors. I imagine it's not too hard to translate that into candy canes.

I prefer the traditional peppermint myself because it's just what I am used to. However, the other kinds aren't bad, it's just definitely not the first thing I reach for on the store shelf.

I hear you, I am a creature of habit, too.

it seems like that they almost have every flavour except the old traditional flavour of candy canes. i still like the look on my tree of the old traditional type but to eat, i prefer the new ones.

I did have to do some searching in the store display to find the peppermint ones, but they were there. I love the look of those best, too.
