Do you have a preference when there are simple candies, popsicles, etc. around?
Remember when a lot of the hard candy choices were by color, like red, orange, yellow, and green? When faced with that choice, did you have one that you liked over others?
How about popsicles? Jello? or Koolaid?
When it came to popsicles, I had no choice at home, my mother only got orange. Yes, really. But, elsewhere, I might choose red or even grape first, then orange...just because that's the flavor I always got.
My dad liked black cherry Jello best, so that's what we had, when we had it. As I aged, I discovered that there was peach, and it was quite good!
It's not that I didn't like regular Lifesavers, I did, but when I discovered that there were tropical fruit flavored Lifesavers, I got those!
There was a clearish-yellow, which I think was pineapple, a coconut, a mango, and even a melon. Not sure how melon got in there, but I really liked it, lol!
Also, just to add, I love those little raspberry flavored candies that are shaped like raspberries, coffee candies like coffee nips, and those largish peach rings that stretch. Oh, and I'll eat any flavor of the gelatin candies that look like slivers of fruit, like orange slices, etc. Just saying...!
How about you?
