I usually have several different kinds of candy for Halloween,
including Twizzlers. I usually hand those out last and hope the kids
will stop ringing the doorbell before I get to them.

We must have been born around the same time. ;o)

Yes, I think I owe my two front teeth reconstruction to those. They
also has a 'lollipop version', big ball of SweeTart on a stick.

Haven't tried those either but they're on my 'should try those' list --
although the enjoyment of SweeTarts has as much to do with texture as
with taste. Don't know if 'soft' ones would add or take away from the
pleasure.
