This.  It's probably the trashiest, most low-class candy out there along with circus peanuts, but I am a fan.  🤗

And do not sleep on their close cousin, the Mellowcreme Pumpkin.  🤩

When I was a kid I liked to eat them in sections based on the colors. First the white pointed end, then the orange middle, then the yellow part last

Was it ever scientifically proven whether the three sections actually tasted different, or was it just an illusion based on the different colors?  🤔

I personally believe that they taste different.  :dunno:

Not sure about any proof, and I agree that each color must taste different. Same with the red white and blue bomb popsicles.

Yeah, the white part seems almost like "icing", like pure sugar, the yellow part seems to be a little waxy, and the orange part seems to be the most crumbly and flavorful.  That's where the mellowcreme pumpkins come in...they're pure orange part.  😍

I'm the exact opposite. Used to eat 'em by the handful as a kid. Wouldn't touch one today.  :dunno:

My hair IS receding and I'm going to bed earlier these days. Give it a few years and I'll prolly be back in diapers. 🤔

You might be onto something. :dunno:

I always ate the middle section first.

I planted some in the spring, but they died. But with the cooler weather they have started to regrow.
