For taste: Marathon.

For lack of taste: Wax Moustaches

For ego: Reggie Bar

Well, Dilly beat me to it. The answer is obviously the Reggie Bar.

Summit was also a damn good candy bar.

And as a former Hans subordinate, I'm pretty confident when I say I don't think you play the game (in a good way).

I definitely play the game (in a neither here nor there way).

who will get kicked off?
Kelly Clarkson? Reuben? Clay Aiken?
Refrigerator Perry? Pee Wee Herman?

the funny thing about the reggie bar is that it was not even a bar. it was sort of a blob of "chocolaty covered caramel and peanuts" (from the wrapper-

joe-
i think that is an ebay fraud!
first, the real reggie bar was discontinued in 1980. second
-that looks different-more like a bar!
kissel | 04.19.06 - 11:50 am | #

yeah, but I think it was reintroduced around 1993 to coincide with his induction into the hall of fame. Regardless, you are correct, it is a bastardized version of the original.

gotta be the reggie bar, but another discontinued candy (not a bar) that i would think you would miss is gatorade gum... imagine the possibilities in the post-2k gatorade flavor labs...

I would like a 100 Thousand Dollar Bar. I know the 100 Grand still exists, but it just doesn't taste the same since they shortened the name.

i'd like to see choco-lite again. it was just a chocolate bar, but it had thousands of tiny little air bubbles in it. almost a crispy effect, but not quite.

they might still have them in europe.

i have learned a few lessons in the 11 years i've worked the web news jag:

- raise good, promotion bad
- don't go to war if you can't win (sun tzu may have said this or something like it)
- jesus, they pay me for this?

Hot damn, gatorgum was delicious. I want some right now.

It lost its flavor in about 3 minutes though and wasn't even a little bit thrist-quenching.

good call on the Marathon bar by Kissel. how about we bring back Boo-berry cereal while we'rew at it.

yeah, clearly that's mrs. bungle's reflection in the glass pane on the elevator door, arms bent in the classic 'pushing the stroller' pose, looking the other way as hans shoots over her head.

or maybe i'm just bored...

cW beat me to the original 100 grand candy bar. i also liked the Chunky. ate a couple Bit-O-Honeys in my day, too.

i don't think gatorgum ever lasted 3 minutes. and it made me pucker...in a non-good way.
