With that hard milk chocolate shell housing an oozing, yolk-like sugary center, this seasonal treat makes us look forward to Easter every year. Honestly, it's probably good that these aren't available all year round, because the burst of sugar you get from just one egg will make you feel like pulling a jungle gym down the street like Phillip The Hyper-Hypo Kid.

I hate when sites do this. You have to go through 50 pages. At least put 10 per page. It takes less time to scroll.

Generations of Belgian and Swiss chocolate makers are spinning in their graves. I am always amazed that someone with little or no knowledge of the subject on which they're writing can actually get paid to write a "best" list like this. Shame Complex.

Complex makes a habit of picking the shittiest "number one thing of all time". This would be one of those times. What about regular M&M's? Those beat the crap out of the peanut kind. And, yeah, what ABOUT jellybeans? Those are way better than half the crap on this list. Who eats that much Japanese candy anyway?

How are Tootsie Rolls not up there?

I'm not sayin it should've been #1, but c'mon man....no love for a Payday bar? Peanuts and caramel is about as simple as you can get, and straight up, adding chocolate to it (the Avalanche) ruined the flavor. Payday is my favorite candy bar of all time.

nah.. i think they got this one right. i remember the sour patch kids/watermelons/blueberries used to always be sold out at the lunchroom store and i even believe a distressed fat kid choked out one of those fundraiser box toting kids for running out. its too bad i grew up and can't fuck wit all that sour sweet shit anymore.

I agree that this list was pretty shitty, but I do love me some sour patch kids
