F-Bomb Friday



Remember this?

Or this?

What about this?

In case you don't want to click over...it would be my addiction to Candy Corn.
 It totally effed my diet up around Halloween.

And just when I thought the danger had passed...when all vestiges of Halloween candy were gone from my house...

I see this:

Valentine Corn

And of course you're saying, "So what, Mims? They're at the store. Leave em there."

Yeah.

Right.

Leave em.

**snorts**




A couple of my besties are also linking with me this week; if you have something to link just send me the URL and I'll link it in my post. I'm too cheap to pay for MckLinky.

Uggghhh they did that with my Easter Cadbury Choc Eggs... you know, the sold choc with the hard candy shell... ohhhh how I ♥ them. Damn Cadbury has created them for Christmas & Valentines Day too. It was SUPPOSED to be my Easter weakness... stupid candy companies!

That's like telling me to leave Rob at the store...yeah, right.

Or like telling Charlie Sheen to leave the crack and the whores at the store...whatev.

Good luck with that.

At least they're low-fat!

The very best candy corn is the Autumn Mix and the pumpkins that are in. Drool inducingly delicious!

sidny said...

Candy Corn is delicious. But it's one of those things I will only deal with at Halloween. After eating it, I feel like my teeth are going to dance out of my head because it's so sweet. Ouch.

Shawn said...

Does it taste the same? I think the color difference alone would defer me from trying it.

Candy corn for you, Rob for JennyKate, Crack & whores {or is it crack-whores?} for Charlie and Diet Dr. Pepper for me....Clearly we all have our vices!

Steph said...

Whoops... they look better than the halloween stuff.

I forgot to upload pictures so I'll have to do my F-bomb either later or tomorrow. Damn!

McVal said...

Oh man! Those look good.
But snorting them? eww...

Dee said...

Well damn it! Guess what I'm craving now??

VandyJ said...

So, do the Easter ones come in pink and green?

Sami said...

And this just reminded me that I haven't been doing very well at my Symfully Sweet Saturdays. Guess I need to get back on that, huh???

Ms.Wasteland said...

Stupid holidays.

Hutch said...

Candy corn has never really been my thing. But I almost finished an entire pint of ice cream last night if we're being completely honest.

Christiejolu said...

HAHA! They are making those little suckers for everything now huh? I saw Christmas ones even!

Yankee Girl said...

Why do they have to do that??? It is so not fair!

Vodka Logic said...

I've seen them. Do they taste the same?

I posted my addiction on FB...Cadbury Mini Eggs.

Vivienne said...

Sugar is the enemy.
Stay away from the light. Don't go near the light. Don't even LOOK at the light.

Beth said...

Ya know...I have recipe around here for making your own candy corn... ;)

They could, theoretically, made candy corn for every holiday (red, white, and blue for Independence Day, red, white, and green for Christmas, brown, orange, and ivory for Thanksgiving, pale pink, blue, and yellow for Easter, etc).

PBJdreamer said...

OMG they will never leave us alone----the sweet candy demons.

They want me FAT. They conspire to make my ass wide and turn me into a giant PB&J


aiiiiiyeeeeeeeee

that is all

Emmy said...

I never saw any of those in my store otherwise I totally would have bought some for my husband. Darn

Miss Angie said...

Candy companies are the DEVIL!!!!!!!! LOL, Valentines Corn... Evil.

Connie said...

I just picked up 4 boxes of Thin Mints on Wednesday.

Don't ask me how many boxes I have today.

Jen said...

Does it taste like berries or something?

Brandy@YDK said...

shut your face! that's the devil's work.

Jane Anne said...

Lucky me, it's almost impossible to find candy corn without a peanut allergy warning.

Mrs. Petrie said...

I got nothing. I'm sitting here eating candy conversation hearts and goofing around on the computer.

Heather In The Land Of Mom said...

Oh yumm! I'm sitting here eating what's left of my valentines peeps.

Xazmin said...

I LOVE corns! Only I don't think the Valentine's ones are as good. Maybe.

Where's the linky?

tattytiara said...

My addiction of choice was always a very specific brand of chocolate covered maraschino cherries, and they've recently "new and improved" them into being boring old cherry cream chocolates - no cherry, no goo, no glory. As much as I'm disappointed, I gotta admit it's saving me a lot of money, calories and guilt!

Lourie said...

My husband loves those things! I can take 'em or leave 'em. It's chocolate that is my weakness. And it doesn't help that it is all 50% off now! Sheesh.

Impulsive Addict said...

I can leave candy alone (because I have WILL POWER) but bake a pan of brownies and I can eat the whole freakin' thing. So I guess I need more WILL POWER huh? And I'll need a glass of milk for my brownies. I'm a needy bitch these days.

cbusch said...

I smiled reading your post - first of all because I just got my NEW computer set up and it is WORKING!!! And I am such a sweet addicted and I am not ashamed to admit it but candy corn is one thing I actually do not like. So that just means there is more for you to enjoy :)

Natalie said...

I saw the Valentine's candy corn the other day. My first reaction was, "Awesome!" Quickly followed by, "Damn.. I'm NEVER going to wear my skinny jeans again."

Erinsgobragh said...

Oh my gosh my Mom and I were addicted to candy corn when I was a kid. We'd go through bags and bags of the stuff, (this is the same woman who ate 21 McDonald's cheese burgers remember).

Unknown Mami said...

Oh someone was gunning for you when they marketed that. They must follow your blog.

Cheeseboy said...

Valentines corn? Just wait for Easter corn.

hotpants™ said...

I didn't they had Valentine candy corn. OMG! Want!

Stacey said...

I'm like that with Peeps, which they make for just about every holiday. Seriously, I'm waiting for Arbor Day Peeps.

Jessica said...

I was just looking at all the red hots. Looks like enough to burn your bottom on the way out! OUCH! :)

slugmama said...

Around here they color that "candy crack" for EVERY HOLIDAY....Xmas it's red green and white; Valentine's Day it's pink red and white; St. Pat's Day it's 2 tone green and white; Easter it's yellow pink and blue; 4th of July it's red white and blue;and then we are back to Fall/Halloween colors.

Resistance is futile....
Just accept the fact that for the rest of your life, that the teeth left in your head will resemble Chiclets, making you take on the appearance of a Jack O' Lantern all year long. ;-)
