    Gosling's "Black Seal" Bermuda rum, and plain old Wise potato chips. Both clearly their respective industry standards.

    Anything from Bob's Confectionary Company (candy canes, peppermint twists, in both stick and ball form...). Great stuff that just melts in your mouth. http://www.farleysandsathers.com/Products_Bobs.htm

    For candy it's the Tootsie roll and Butterfinger.

    A spoon of Dreyer's natural vanilla ice cream in my coffee is almost as good as a back scratch.

    edit: To clarify what I meant by "natural" I see it's actually called "homemade".
    No corn syrup, just old fashioned ingredients like milk, cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla.

    I knew Dreyers sounded familiar. It's the same thing as Edy's is here on the east coast. Check it out:

    And I think I'll have to try that in my coffee. That sounds like goooood sheeet!

    Peanut butter and chocolate are a combination to die for! I get chocolate covered pretzels and dip the into peanut butter. Damn!!

    Klondike bars also have some nice combos: Reese's peanut butter ice cream with the chocolate coating. Also, the Planters bars have peanut butter ice cream covered with caramel, peanuts and chocolate.

    My mother-in-law(the ****) is good for one thing...her "SIN CAKE"

    It consists of Chocolate cake mix, choc and van pudding mixes, cool whip, caramel sauce, cream cheese, pecans, and topped off with chopped up Heath bars. The **** is fu^%ing awesome. If anyone wants the recipe just PM me and I'll get the measurements from her.

    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    These go back a bit but at one time most Sears stores had a candy/confection booth and they had the "sliced fruit" candies (not the wedges) that looked like lime, lemon& orange complete with rind etc. for effect. They also had the real old fashioned chocolate covered vanilla drops.

    I remember the candy booth when my Mom used to drag me kicking and screaming to go shopping. Sears was always the last stop as she could bribe me with getting to buy some candy when we got to Sears. We used to go to Sears right after getting new shoes at the Buster Brown shoe store. Anyone remember those Buster Brown shoe stores?

    Good chocolate preferably with crushed hazelnuts and/or macadamia nuts. Nestle/Hersheys dont cut it for me. Lindt is my favorite - the spherical shaped one filled with creamy milk chocolate - red wrapper. Next is Ferrero Rocher - another spherical shaped ball with crushed hazlenuts and milk chocolate/uncrushed hazlenut center. Very good and addicting stuff - kind of gets expensive. Swiss chocolate is the emir of chocolates. Nothing comes close.
