When it comes to candy, we’ve all got our favorites and it turns out, some people have lots of feelings about their candy preferences. Seattle news anchor Liz Dueweke started a debate on Twitter when she posted a photo of six popular candies - Snickers, Reese’s, KitKat, Milky Way, Plain M&Ms, and Twix - and asked: “One has to go. Forever. Which one do you choose?”
People’s responses are all over the place:
“Milky Way is the Ford Taurus of candy bars. Considered to be very popular, but no one would even notice if it went out of production.”
“Kit Kat is the most overrated candy.”
“Snickers. Who needs peanuts getting in the way of sugar?”
“Twix. It's the untalented understudy you pray never has to go on for KitKat.”
“What maniac eats regular M&Ms?”
“Milky Way can be improved by spending several hours in a freezer but will never come close to Snickers.”
Twix is the fruitcake of candy bars.
Dueweke’s vote was to ditch Milky Way and she later tweeted that she’d like to thank the bulk bag of Costco candy for this viral tweet,” adding, “When I die, put the text of this tweet on my tombstone.”
I LOVE Kit Kats, so that must remain. I think I'd pick Twix. How about YOU?
