Today's candy was the Cadbury Curly Wurly. It's from the U.K. and I got it at World Market. It's pretty much just a curly caramel ribbon covered in chocolate. Delicious? Yes. But what bothered me was the fact that so much space was wasted inside the wrapper. I mean, half the damn thing was air! Why not make it a solid caramel ribbon? And it was really, really flat too, like Air Head candy. It barely weighed anything at all and if you breathed too hard around this candy bar you might have accidentally inhaled it up your nose. I ate this thing in about three seconds flat. What the hell kind kind of candy gets eaten that quickly? WHY MUST YOU MOCK MY NEED FOR CANDY, CADBURY?!?!?!I had to buy some cupcakes to appease the Sugar Monster today. Sigh.

Maybe they didn't have them in your childhood, but there used to be something called a Marathon bar, that was basically the exact same thing, but longer. The US version of a Curly Wurly. They were damned good. Too bad these things are so expensive here, because I would love to scarf down 10 to 20 of them.
