I eat sweets maybe thrice per year. I do like Ferrero, Reese's, and
good Euro bitter chocolate.

Ferrero Rocher. None of the above. I prefer jujubes.

None. I have too much respect for my pancreas, cardiovascular, and
nervous system that to eat that sort of rubbish.

I remember liking Almond Roca as a kid. Haven't had it since then. Used to
like Reese's but can't have them now. Never liked anything from Ferrero
Rocher or Lindor.

None of those would be my favorite though. Currently that would be Soft
Eating Licorice, the red kind. Or Swedish Fish.

I love candy bars but rarely eat them any more. Once a month or so I
get a craving for a Snickers bar, but that's about it.

In the old days I liked Mountain Bars and Big Cherry Bars, don't eat candy
anymore as a rule.

Maybe somebody didn't know there was already a Somebody. I changed my
ID to make room for another, as I was the late-comer. But I didn't
realize it at first.

Not that I know of. I usually get them from local chocolatiers.
Yesterday I happened across some at the Bulk Barn. I had to try them
but I was not impressed. They were huge pieces of candied dipped in dark
chocolate, but the ginger was missing that essential ginger zing.

No. I just glanced at the two email address here for the topic-strter
and for you (assuming it is "you" that is responding) and noticed they
were different. You didn't say so explicitly: Are both email addresses
acutally you?

With or without a "zing", it still sounds worth pursuing. And I will.

None of the above. I think my favorite candy is either my home made
Chocolate Covered Cherries:

Or just good dark chocolate. Anything 55% or more cocoa, but one of
the best I've found is 65%:

Not enough information to clarify it for me.

The "Somebody" which was the OP has an email ending: . .
and the posting host is .

The email mentioning it was bogus had an email ending: . .
with a seems related to eternal-september.

I don't know which kind of "is" we are referring to but these two be
different email addresses.

I changed mine couple days ago. When I setup eternal it didn't work at
first and thought maybe it needed my email. I should have gone back and
took it out but didn't really care at the time.

The imposter also put in "noiseless patient spider" for organization. A
Walt Whitman poem.

My drug of choice is still a good ol' Snickers. Keep a bag of
fun-bites on hand at all times.

I don't keep candy on hand often. If it's here, I'll eat it. If not here, I
don't miss it.

My 5 favorites though a
- reeses peanut butter cups
- snickers
- M&M's peanut
- those chocolate bars with almonds that schools sell to raise money
- and more recently....Goobers
