<p><strong>TRUE FACT:</strong> I actually like <strong>13</strong> of the <strong>16</strong> candies in this tourney bracket. Never a big chocolate fan and I hate hate hate wax candies of any style or flavor.</p>
<p>Soft Australian-style black licorice is one of my personal favorites, and I enjoy any good black licorice.</p>

<p>I have never seen individual serving size packs of <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Circus</strong> <strong><span>P</span>eanuts,</strong></span> so don't know if anybody actually passes those out at Halloween. And one can only hope that nobody out there is cruel enough to pass out <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Atomic Fireballs</strong></span> - - - although another personal favorite of mine (bought in bulk the 150 count boxes) this is not an item I would give to a 6 year old Trick-or-Treater.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>FUN FACT:</strong> I have purchased and eaten 9 of these within the past twelve months.</p>
