They should be flavored too!

BTW, I’ve been a fan of this website for a few years now (I have no life).

mmm… those look delicious. or maybe i’m just hungry, dammit.
i agree about the orange. Orange ghosts are silly. they shouldn’t have been included but, then again, i have no complaints about the brown ghosts. probably because i secretly wish them to be chocolate-flavored.
ah. the idea of ghosty-s’mores makes me so very happy… it brings a tear to my eye, honestly. Pure genius.

Mike: I remember the bleeding skulls! They sold them at a drug store near me when I was growing up and I LOVED those things. I’d love to find them again someday. Surely there’s some dusty collection of them selling for 5 cents each in the back of a mom and pop store somewhere in this great land of ours?

…I don’t want to find out what marshmallow pretzel Roll-Ups taste like.

Oh, but you do. You DO! (Er… and not just because it was a long week and it would cheer me up to read your review of said unpalatable holiday snack. Honest. )

I’ve been going through stores feeling a little burned out on Halloween for similar reasons. Luckily, the girlfriend and I are soldiering through with a horror binge. But on to more pressing matters, my point in posting is that as cool as GhostMallows are they just don’t compare to a candy from the mid 80s where you’d bite into a skull and it would bleed. It was one of those fancy candies that were individually packaged and cost a bit more than it was really worth. But it was a bleeding skull. I only had one of them, I think, it’s very possible that I dreamed it. My parents didn’t get me those fancy candies. But damn, I really wish they still made those really cool bleeding skull candies. Does anyone remember this? Do they still make these anymore anywhere?
