Biit 'o Honey. I was so little I'd leave them in my pockets to warm up and get soft enough to chew. Dad was a wildlife rehab agent with TP&W, or whatever they were back then. We had a rescued fawn named Danny, because I couldn't say Bambi yet. He also loved Bit 'o Honey candy. He'd knock me down, stand on my chest, and eat my candy. All of my jeans and overalls had holes chewed through the pockets. Reading this brought a smile- I bet it was cool your Dad having that for work-  It was cool. We constantly had a huge cage of baby squirrels in the back yard, and "pet" foxes, turtles, and even a skunk. They were all temporary pets, of course.

I loved Sugar Daddy because it lasted all day. You could freeze them and break them apart in pieces.
I prefer peace.But if trouble must come let it come in my time. So that my children may live in peace

Probably Snickers or Reese's. I like almost all of them, but my favorite now is probably a Hershey with almonds.

Mine was SweetTarts. I must have eaten a million of those as a teenager. This and spree. Do you guys remember the giant sweet tarts from the 60’s and early 70’s? Giant sweet tarts nowadays are chewy and its ok, i still enjoy them, but I miss those bigger versions of the regular hard sweet tarts in a giant size- I liked them and all SweeTARTS but you might as well inject glucose directly into a vein. The same goes for Pixy Stix.

Peter-Paul Mounds, Almond Joy and Caravelle. Mom always liked the Caravelle, so did I, but, for the amount of candy for that dime, I went for the honkin Snickers, BabeRuth or Butterfinger.
