  Absolutely. Used to happen all the tine with Now & Laters.

    I think that’s what’s pictured, right ? Because I instantly got the sour cherry with hints of paper flavor in my mouth when I looked at that,

      Definitely a Now n’ Later. So many of these in my past.

      You’re probably right. At first I thought it was Starburst but it does look more like a Now & Later.

      Absolutely. Now & Laters, bby.

  First glance I thought it was a piece of raw steak. 🤢

    It isn’t? ☹️

      That appears to be a strawberry ‘now and later’ candy.

    I thought it was tuna (or other sashimi) with a little fat on it. Either way, that emoji does not convey my reaction at all.

    I thought so until I read your comment 😂

    I thought it was a dog bacon treat, and the answer is yes, wrapper and all.

    …Woof

  The amount of effort to paper ratio is too high, and I need a snack dammit!

  Eh what’s a little cellulose between snacks?

  Last month i made myself a sandwich and accidentally left the little piece of wax paper that keeps the cheese separate in there.

  I realized something was off on my second bite, opened the sandwich, and saw that i took a big ass bite off the wax paper and swallowed it.

    Have you noticed any new superpowers since then?

    source
• Maggoty@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Nope. In my darkest hours getting that last bit of paper off was a welcome distraction.

  source
• pythonoob@programming.dev ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Yes of course

• mrbaby@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Eating the paper is half the fun of candy dots.

  Now and later

  Well, there’s another one for the stupid-candy-names-list. It can go right under “hundreds and thousands”

  source

  • Skipper_the_Eyechild@lemmings.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    But what’s a single one of those called?

    A one? A hundredth and thousandth??

    I need to know!!

    source

    • abbadon420@lemm.ee ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You could just call them flingles and a single one would be called a flingle. Seems much easier to me

      source
• someguy3@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  What is that? (The red thing before everyone says paper.)

  source

  • Pat_Riot@lemmy.today ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Looks like a Now and Later.

    source

    • talentedkiwi@sh.itjust.works ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Definitely a note and later. I had one a few days ago leftover from Halloween. I did this exactly. Yes, I did eat the paper because why not.

    Starburst

    Don’t know what the he’ll the other guy is saying

    • someguy3@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Starburst is squarish.

      I don’t feel like I’ve ever had the paper get stuck to a Starburst like that. Starbursts seem to be wrapped in a waxy-coated paper that doesn’t stick to the candy really.

      Now and Laters are wrapped in the cheapest shit paper and it gets stuck to the damn things. Then when you finally rip all the paper off and put it in your mouth it’s like trying to eat a slightly flavored rock. I never understood why all the kids loved them when I was little. Honestly a shit tier candy.

      I don’t often eat these nowadays, but if you remind me that they used to be called Opal Fruits they taste better.

  Is that not what they mean when they say something’s a good source of fiber?

• Coreidan@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  A little extra fiber for your diet

  Wait, there’s Candy in there?? What have I been eating this whole time??

  • Kolanaki@yiffit.net ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Disgusting candy covered in sweet, delicious paper.

    source
• Neato@ttrpg.network ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Yes. It HURTS to chew paper. Don’t do this.

  source

  • lowleveldata@programming.dev ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Yes. Just swallow. Don’t chew.

    source
  • XTornado@lemmy.ml ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Sandpaper maybe… But normal paper…

    source
• weirdbeardgame@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  You guys don’t eat those with half the wrapper attached because the stickiness level of that candy is so powerful it practically has a gravitational force strong enough to attract the sun? … No, just me?

  That’s like half the flavor right there
