Review: I am so glad these little candies don't talk like their Bert & Ernie altar egos on the commercials. Not only would they annoy the piss out of me with their inane conversations and put-on stupidity, but I'd feel really guilty about biting their heads off and sucking out their chocolatey brains.

Does anyone know why we anthropomorphize things we are supposed to eat? What is the psychology behind that?

I'm not a big candy eater, but after my girlfriend was hit by a car, she was right, we needed chocolate. M&Ms (as if you didn't already know) have a thin candy shell around milk chocolate. My favorite thing to do with them is to suck on them until the candy shell dissolves away and cracks under pressure. That way, when you make it to the chocolate center, it has been cooking in your oven of a mouth for a while and is half melted when you get to it.

I bought these candies at the Citgo on Archer and Halsted, which I found out, doesn't sell ibuprofen or beer. So, really, all you can get at this Citgo is gas and candy. Something tells me I won't be visiting this (in)convenience store very often.
