2. razzberry and toffee
3. Cookies, chocolate covered pretzals
4. it was probably these things they used to sell in the stop and shop, they were like these long plastic tubes and they would have a felt animal on the top(if it was halloween they might have like black cats and ghosts or something) and in the tubes were these colored things, they were really squishy almost like sprinkles but they didn't taste that good at all, but I loved them for some reason.
5. One halloween I was trick or treating with a bunch of the neighbor hood boys (who were all brothers actually) and there ended up being a hole in my bag and all my candy was falling out and I didn't know, and all the boys were walking behind me picking up my candy, and then when we were in the van I tried finding this certain candy that I got, A Hershey's Cookie's and Cream (they used to be my favriote but now they kind of make me sick) and when I turned around I saw one of them eating it, and then another eating something else of mine, THEY WERE ALL eaing my candy, and I got wicked upset and their mom made them give me half of all their candy they had collected so far.
6. Black Licorice Anything. grape jolly ranchers and lollipops (certain brands), rootbeer barrels, and snowcones.

Ah, those tubes, seem to go on forever when you're a kid. I don't recall ones with that sort of candy but I remember M&M kind of things. I think we all have those candies though, those ones that we ate and were crazy about but weren't very good. For many it's those candies that are stuck to paper. I think mine was Rolo's which aren't very tasty but were to me at the time delicious (and I liked that they wre neat to eat).
omg, yes, I did love the Hershey's Cookie's and Cream. That and Toblerone were an addiction. I am impressed at the cleverness of the boys at the same time that I'm as upset as you are. The honest thing to do was to tell you, the Augustus greedy thing to do was to take advantage. And your Mom rules for that punishment, very fitting.
Ha! Again we're very close in taste. I can stand anise or licorice made from non-artificial ingredients, but so far it sticks out like a flavor that shouldn't be. I keep trying to like it though. I'm that way with flavors, I want to appreciate them. Snowcones ain't doin' it for ya, huh? But those APPLE jolly ranchers are as good as cash - I remember when I discovered those.
You mention rootbeer barrels, I'm not sure what those are but soda flavored candy in general is an interesting subject.
