Surprised no one has mentioned a Moon Pie. Even better, an RC Cola and a Moon Pie. :)

I clicked it, and now I have to ask the question. What on earth is an Idaho Spud?

I bought some recently at the Hershey's Store in Times Square - about $5 for a box of six bars.

I Googled the same question!

Cherry Ripe from Australia, cherry & coconut under dark chocolate; a friend from down-under would provide them to us for Australia Day (Jan. 26).

Minnesota Pearson's Candy Company sells Nut Goodies (a concoction of chocolate, maple, and peanuts) and Salted Nut Rolls only in the midwest. They also sell a mint patty nation-wide. All three are wonderful.

Years ago they used to also do a 7-up bar - a long chocolate bar with 7 little squares along it containing 7 different flavored (cherry, coconut, caramel, fudge, jelly, maple, and Brazil nut). Sort of like a little box of chocolates all in one. And that was back when my finances were severely limited so a big treat was to go to their outlet store and buy the seconds. A loose bag of these bars where the squares weren't lined up neatly enough or maybe there was a missing one or the bar was short. They came in both light and dark chocolate. Probably my all-time favorite, even the factory outlet "seconds".

I know. Makes them really hard to get but they are still a great memory from my exchange student days in Apple Valley, MN.

at halloween, they sold bags of mixed miniature kit kats which included the white and dark versions, but i've never been able to find single, full sized bars of dark or white on the west coast. i'm a fan of the dark chocolate ones. I think they only sell it in certain markets.

I miss the old Marathon bars. we used to freeze them, then wack them on the counter into small pieces.

I love the Charleston Chews which are getting harder and harder to find.

We have buckeyes here too and those are addictive. I found a recipe to make homemade.

As far as other regional things, my SILs are from Cali and turned me on to Mothers cookies! Here they are called Archway but she still has her family send her the real originals.

Strawberry Kit Kat (regional marketed)

Cherry Mash (southern US)

Nestle ad banners. coincidence?
 

is anyone else getting candy bar ad banners on these pages? now that's targetted marketing. i'm impressed and creeped out at the same time.

Moana Loa dark chocolate with coffee bits. Decadent and delish!! We've only founbd them in HI and a few mainland Hilo Hatties.

I didn't realize Salted Nut Rolls were only in the Midwest, but I guess I haven't really seen them around since I moved back to Texas. I just remember something similar that was available at Stuckey's all over the place when we went on family road trips...

Something I have only seen in the Midwest is Valomilk. Love them! There are 2 cups in a package (like Reese's) - chocolate on the outside, marshmallow cream on the inside. Doesn't quite taste like marshmallow, though - it's very creamy/runny - not sure how else to describe it.

From England I love Toffee Crisp and Maltesers (not quite a candy bar, but so much better than Whoppers!).

Imagine targeted marketing on OMNI!!!! :eek:
