Root beer barrels, banana Turkish Taffy and Beemans gum as a kid. Frozen Milky Way bars when I got older. Nowadays, my wife keeps Sorbee Sugar Free hard candy in the candy dish that she buys online.

I really used to like Starburst and pretty much anything chocolate...Tootsie Rolls, 3 Musketeers, Snickers, Mounds, M&Ms, yeah baby...but I rarely eat much sugar these days other than the occasional entire cherry or key lime pie...;)

For chocolate candy, my all time favorite is “Ice Cubes”.

Candy bars? Probably Cadbury fruit and nut, and Mounds.

Hard candy is hard candy for the most part, but I suppose I’d go with Life Savers, pineapple or cherry being my favorites.

I guess I like Skittles for chewy candy.

These are pretty darn good too!

My wife’s favorite, hands down!

We always have a container on the coffee table.

I pretty well don't eat any sweets anymore.

Taste buds went on vacation about 2 years ago and haven't come back.

Best way to describe it is like being color blind. You can still see fine but you know part of the spectrum is missing so nothing looks "right". 

I've lost the "sweet" and "salty" part of the flavor spectrum.

I CAN still taste stuff but it's very "watered down", I guess you could say but some stuff is downright bad. 

Any carbonated drinks or made with soda water , all I taste is soda. Coke and Pepsi tastes to me like Murphy's Oil Soap smells and Sprite and 7-Up tastes like moldy books smell.

I know this sounds like a joke but I can't tell ice cream from sour cream now. [I know, one is cold ha ha]

I'd LOVE to have a banana split with caramel, strawberry and pineapple but ,,

Ice cream = sour cream

strawberry = very little flavor 

pineapple = little flavor, mostly just burn

caramel = just greasy texture, not much else

banana =  every banana, no matter how ripe and brown tastes like the greenest one possible right off the tree.

BUT, I have lost about 70 pounds , so, yea, yea for me 🙄

I've had a bunch of tests, they don't know what's going on with it. Docs speculate I may have had a super mild case of the covid but I didn't have as much as the sniffles for at least 6 months before this started.  They say there's nothing they can do for me.
