A Whatchamacallit was absolutely the weirdest candy bar I ever had: Chocolate, peanut butter (maybe brittle?), and a crunch like a crunch bar with maybe some granola or rice crispies, not sure. But as soon as I had one, I fell in love with it! My friend would shoplift a bunch for me in the past when we were kids since they usually were placed right next to his favorite candy too. That was also back when I did not think stealing was wrong though, but at the time, free candy was free candy!

I stopped getting them since I believe they either go bad fast, or stopped making them, because anytime I buy one from a store, the candy tastes stale or has a wrong-feeling bite into it. Makes me thing either the stores or company had a surplus of them and just wanted to get rid of the old ones. Shame, cause it was REALLY good.

ruesen : It's also possible that the manufacturer is cutting corners and lowering the quality of its ingredients and/or production process. Sometimes companies cutback and the quality of their products suffer. A good example is Witman's chocolates... those used to be the best chocolates ever in my opinion... I loved getting Witman's Samplers. But about 5 or so years ago, I noticed a serious downgrade in the quality of the candies... they just didn't taste right anymore.

It's not typical for candy to be allowed to go bad. All candy has to be dated by the manufacturer so its known when it needs to be sold by. If its past its expiration date, it's actually illegal to sell it to customers.

A Chico-stick! First off, I can not tell if I think the name of it could be used as a racial slur or not and second it tastes strange but really good. I like them but I am very confused by them, and they start hurting my teeth after a few bites so I'm always like why do you taste so good if you hurt me so bad?!

Crazy Li :
I suppose that makes sense, though it happened when I first discovered them. Perhaps they were JUST starting to change the recipe with the new bars with the bad flavor mixed with the old bars with the good flavor. That, or my convenience stores where I got them just did not check their expiration dates. Maybe I will revisit the candy bar and see how it tastes now (checking the date first!).

I dislike that companies lower the quality of their foods at times. I remember at one point, Yodels changed their recipe and I just could not stand it and stopped eating them. Must have been a popular dislike as a year after my last yodel, I tried them again and the classic taste was back.

ruesen : Yes, I've seen companies fiddle with their flavors a lot. Sometimes they think the new taste might be an improvement... but its usually a cheaper way to produce it. If it causes a significant drop in sales, chances are, the old recipe will come back. I tend not to be forgiving though. If something suddenly starts tasting bad, I'm gonna be very weary of it and probably not buy it again... unless I taste someone else's and it happens to be fine. But I won't spend my own money on it if I'm not sure.

gorgonslayer : Duran flavored? What is that even supposed to be. I won't eat anything that claims to be a flavor that doesn't sound like a flavor I know. It's just like those obscure flavors that say stuff like "Green Thunder" that's not a flavor and could be anything... though the one exception to this Ecto Cooler (Hi-C)... that I actually gambled on and it paid off. But that's off-topic since this is about candy, not drinks >.>

I don't remember the name of it, but I tired it around high school. It was candy from an old acquaintance's native home. It tasted as if the main ingredients were air freshener and newspaper. I said it was good to not hurt her feelings.

While it may be common to some, I saw some "candy" at the store a while back, that was simply pineapple rings coated with chili powder. Sounds nasty to me, but I'm too adventurous to not try it if it were offered.
However the wierdest I've actually eaten when I was little, my brother and I got some wierd candy from a convenience store that was just plain nasty. I don't know what it was, only that the label was in spanish and the candy was in a syringe-type container that really resembled bug poison. lol You squrted it into your mouth by pushing on the handle, and it was pastey. We both tossed ours after a bite or two.

I forget what it's called, but one time I had a candy from Malaysia or somewhere, it was so horrid, I barfed. My friends cousin had the candy too, and had the exact reaction I did, saying after he puked in the toilet, "Who would eat that?". I later found out that in some hotels in Malaysia the fruit that the candy was flavored after is banned in some hotels.

The strangest candy I ever had were milk duds. They are just weird. A bunch of balls of chocolate isn't really good in my opinion. They are also messy and can get a lot of things dirty if you aren't careful.

It is a Japanese candy. The wrapper is green with characters I don't know on it. I heard it was lychee?  Anyway my parents tried it and thought it tasted like soap. The candy did get a little funky after a while, but still had a fruit flavor to it also
