A Yucky Treat & A Yummy One

YUCK... GIANT NERDS:

Aesthetically these are grossly bumpy (they look like boogers or tiny alien eggs- both are so yuk) & weirdly chewy inside. Made for 3 year olds (Berto picked these out & love them) or deep lovers of Nerds.

YUM!!! CHOCOLATE COVERED CINNAMON BEARS:

These suckers should be called "SIN-AMEN" (tee hee) bears. I've only ever found them here in Utah (Do you guys have these other places?) & unfortunately for my thighs, they are incredibly tasty.

the giant nerds really are disgusting.. Lily wouldn't even eat them... I am not a fan of cinnamon bears in the first place and can't hae chocolate right now.. so i'd have to say double yuck.

I've had friends move here from Utah that all say how much they miss those bears. I've even had friends who have moved back to Utah send some to friends still here. I don't really care for cinnamon bears though.

I love those chocolate covered cinnamon bears. Never seen them in DC.

I once made some for a friend and then started making them for random company. I've never actually seen them for sale, but I see them at parties I go to so somewhere someone is finding them. I had some the other day at a friends house (the store bought kind) and I gotta say, I think I like my home dipped ones better. just my opinion though :)

I feel exactly the opposite. I like the GIANT nerds. Its a bit weird at first, but I love the tartness of them. Cinnamon bears on the other hand I like absolutely plain, hold the chocolate. I am not a chocolate person.

I've never seen either here in WV but I may just be too much of an ice cream addict to notice anything else!

I haven't seen them in Oklahoma, but they sound totally sinful! I would probably eat boatloads of them!! That will be my next internet purchase! :)

I found your blog from your guest post on Handbags & Handguns. Loved the post, btw!

Love those cinnamon bears!! I haven't found them here. We use to get them at the BYU bookstore. So GOOD!

Yeah I haven't seen them since I left Utah. So I would say that Utah holds the majority of the world's Sin-Amon bears within their state borders.

Tiffany said...

Those are on my top 10 list for things I miss about Utah. They definitely don't have them in LA!

Susan said...

I have a weird thing with bumpy stuff too... It always reminds me of the gremlins in the scene where they layed the eggs... gross.

However, I must say that I would probably choose the nerds over the cinnamon bears. I am not a fan of cinnamon bears, though the chocolate is tempting. :)

I used to buy those babies at the BYU bookstore! LOVE them. And no, I cannot find them anywhere but Utah. Dang it all!
