They look so real!
Marzipan is kinda gross tasting anyway. It's cool for making stuff out of something you can eat.

I'd eat them if they looked like a bottle of Balvenie. Otherwise, they're kinda freakish looking.

I would have to eat them like a gummi bear, first i bite off the legs so they cant run away, then i finish them off.

Some go for the head first, to end it quickly, but not me.

When a chinese woman becomes pregnant, they make little pastries that resemble/symbolizes a baby boy's dingliedoo (if its a boy).

I guess they make a little roll or dumpling with some strategic folds...

Speaking of gross candy, anybody remember Good n' Plenty? Tasted like grape-flavored road tar. What about gummi rats? I like them, but I've seen some girls freak out over them. And have any of you had that mexican candy? I can't really describe what it tastes like but it's gross(to me).

LOL. Charlie says... Love my Good n' Plenty!

Now see, I,m a freak. I haven't found anything yet that is sour enough for me. Warheads? Nope. Tearjerkers? Try again. Name some more and I'll try 'em.

Sour Skittles.
Super Lemons.

Both of them are sour but don't last very long.

I think it's Face Slammers though that takes the cake. That's the only thing that I've ever spit out (onto my hand), said "WOW!", and then popped it back into my mouth. It sounds like they've discontinued them though. But if you have had super lemons, imagine 10x the sourness of them and having it last. :)

I have a hard time eating the sour stuff now. Not because it's too sour for me, but because it makes my teeth sensitive and my tongue hurt. I still love them tho.

Look for a yellow bag of hard lemon-flavored candies with a cartoon of a puckering kid on the label. The powder coating on those things has to be one of the sourest substances known... I absolutely can't keep one in my mouth for more than a second or two. Once you suffer through that layer dissolving your tongue, though, the rest of the candy is just "normal" sour lemon.

Mine, too. Sour skittles are good, but not sour enough. If I eat too much sour candy, my tongue hurts too, but only if I overindulge. I'm gonna get some o' that business from amazon. Maybe I'll have met my match. On second thought, they may have them at Hastings. They have Pocky and those chocolate mushrooms and stuff. And I'll look for some Face Slammers, too. Till then I'll eat some lemons :p

"Warheads" was the one I was thinking of. A nephew gave me one and I was like "you have GOT to be kidding!". IIRC, they toned them down some time later....

Good luck with the face slammers.

I haven't seen them in forever. Last time I had them was... sheesh, like 10 years ago? From doing a quick google search it seems to be on a few "too bad they discontinued this" lists.

And eating super lemons isn't that much more sour than Warheads. It's about the same as Tearjearkers if I remember correctly. Just so you know. And super lemons are more sour than the other flavors (super apple, super grape, super cola).

As you can see, I love sour candies too. :) In my opinion it goes
lemon drops->sour patch kids->sour skittles->super cola, apple, grape->warheads->tearjerkers/super lemons->face slammers

Let me know if you do find face slammers. i think i heard they lowered the kick a few years after i had it and apparently they're discontinued now.
