Time To Melt My Mouth With Hot Tamales

I'm not sure where my mind was when I made this video. What possessed me to just eat a whole bunch of Hot Tamales at once because 2 of them didn't seem to burn fast enough is a mystery to me.

Make sure to follow me on YouTube to check out all the new and old videos I've made.

You can also follow me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to check out some of the new stupid ideas I might have.

Spicy Candy Changes, Or I Do

I'm having a bit of a mental dilemma lately when it comes to reviewing spicy treats. My problem is that I've grown somewhat since I started this site, and I believe I have a higher tolerance to spicy food than when I started candycritic.org. My problem stems from the fact that I have older reviews on this site from back when I not only couldn't tolerate spicy food, I actually had something against it. I used to believe that it was silly to eat any food that caused your mouth pain, even though for some reason I accepted sour as being okay. So when I look back at my old reviews I see a person that just couldn't accept spicy food as an option, and maybe didn't even give it a chance. I'm glad I've grown, but I'm not sure what to do about my past.

Check out my latest spicy review where I didn't actually mind it at all.

Classic Candies I Haven’t Reviewed And Why - Part 2


Lucky Elephant Popcorn - I've always been a little bit nervous about reviewing Lucky Elephant Popcorn. I've always had fond childhood memories of this treat, but I'm not sure it actually holds up on its own. I'm thinking that if I break down Lucky Elephant Popcorn, and look at it objectively, it's just sweet, bland popcorn. Sure it's bright pink, but is that enough?


Regular Lays or Ruffles, or Pringles - Every time I find myself in a store, facing the wall of potato chips, I always seem to find a flavour so interesting, or weird that I have to try it. I do eat regular potato chips, but only at parties, and almost always with some kind of dip. Some day I might have to go out and specifically buy plain potato chips to review, but only after I've exhausted all the other amazing flavours available.


Hot Tamales - I don't like spicy food. I see Hot Tamales as the quintessential spicy candy. It's not the hottest candy out there, but it's really the grandfather of hot candies. I actually think candies that are hotter than Hot Tamales are more interesting to me because I'm curious as to how hot they really are. Hot Tamales are hot enough that I'm scared to eat them, but not hot enough to make me interested.


Cherry PEZ - I've reviewed three flavours of PEZ so far, orange, grape and lemon. I've enjoyed each one of these flavours, but cherry has been my favourite flavour since childhood. The reason I've never reviewed cherry PEZ is because I've haven't selected the flavour of a package of PEZ for as long as I've been doing this site. Any PEZ candies that I've reviewed on this site came with a PEZ dispenser. I guess it's just been my luck so far (or maybe they never package PEZ dispensers with cherry PEZ), but I have not tasted cherry PEZ in years.

Thursday's Candy Links

In what I can only describe as bizzare, "Skittles sales up after Trayvon Martin shooting".

When you crack open a peanut and it's salty, doesn't that amaze you?

The makers of Hot Tamales are looking for "Hotties", seriously they are.

I don't normally like to post recipes on this site, but how to make your own Lucky Charms marshmallows is too good to pass up.

Monday's Candy Links

The Huffington Post reminds us of a few food jingles that will now be stuck in your head all day.

So, you think you know everything there is to know about OREO's?  Let's just see if you do.

Just Born is launching super hot, Hot Tamales.  I could have called this "Stuff I Want To Try" but frankly I'm a little bit afraid to try them.

Hot Tamales Contest Has the Best Name Ever

"Hot Tamales Hot Seats Sizzle on the Sea", so you can assume it will be warm I guess. You can also assume that someone with a lisp, like Sylvester the Cat, might spit a lot while saying this.
