I'll do a candy trade if anyone wants stuff from Asia. I can get a hold of some Japan, Taiwan, and probably Hong Kong stuff.

If anyone lives near a store that's still selling Necco's Conversation Hearts. drop me a PM!

I really envy a lot of the east coasters when it comes to this stuff. In TX we really don't get much candy that throw back to my youth like Zagbars, Mallocups and the Skybar which I vaguely remember... of which I can have none being a vegan.

But I do love the Vanilla Almond Builder Bars by Clif Bars its as close to a Zagnut as I can get. (I don't know if that counts as a candy bar)

Image


Before my soy allergy got out of control I really really loved oatmeal raisin clif bars. I miss them more than any other food I cant eat now.


That soy issue sucks, for some reason Clif has let loose a bunch of new flavors over past couple years and oddly the Oatmeal Raisin still tops the list for me as well as the Blueberry Crisp over any of the newer candy types.

I'd be up for it. Do you have any preferences?

I found somewhere selling cases of mint Aero - it's more expensive to ship than it for the Choc!!!

White Rabbit! I didn't know it came in bars. I've only seen the mini-chews. Man, there's an oldie but goodie.

I love that he's romping among mushrooms, but maybe that's only because I live near the Jefferson Airplane house.

My Bad Dean - They are the small individually rice paper wrapped vanilla chews - hope your not trying to locate the rabbit bars :lol: - would be awsome though

Tell you what seriously kicks ass - Green Tea chocolate Pocky, They come in foo foo "high class" packaging and cost double what the standard ones go for. But man are they good....They're part of the "Marble" line. The green tea mousse is the best, I think.

I think I shall include a box in the package I'm sending out to my friendly neighborhood Necco Conversation Hearts dealer. 8)

Hehe. I wasn't being very serious :P
