On my last trip to the drugstore, I couldn't resist picking up one of the new candy bars as a grab-and-go treat. But does it live up to its limited-edition hype? Read more
Can peanut butter make everything taste better, even America's top-selling chocolate bar? That's what Mars seems to think with the introduction of its latest candy spinoff, Snickers Peanut Butter Squared, a square-size confection composed of peanut butter, nougat, peanuts, and caramel coated in milk chocolate.

A little while ago, I was browsing the candy aisle at Circuit City — I know, weird place to look for candy, but I was there waiting for someone else to make a purchase — when I came across a candy I had never seen before. Called 1&Only, it was a monstrous offering of Chocolate Chip Cookies, Peanut Butter Cups, Oreos, M&Ms, white chocolate chips, and more chocolate. It sounded a bit Read more

"The author has eaten a piece of candy every single day of his entire life." I could tell from the first sentence in Steve Almond's love letter to candy, CandyFreak: A Journey through the Chocolate Underbelly of America, that I had found a book that would really speak to me.
