i feel like there should be separate divisions for chocolate related and not chocolate related

yes i agree--chocolate candies are imo the pinnacle of candies and shd not be judged in the same way that non-chocolate candies are

divisions should be acidic/spicy/chocolate/nutty/gum/solid state sugar/cocaine

there should maybe be a licorice and/or "weird tasting" category too.

serious question how do you pronounce anise is it like a-NIECE or AN-iss because the latter makes me think of anus and giggle ^_^

I think it's the latter.

this is a really good list i dont have much to add except that ill rep pretty hard for gummy-type candies too - they fulfill a slightly different kind of candy craving theyre just that one step further removed from actual food

they're nothing special tastewise, but waxy, colorized high fructose corn syrup has never assumed a more perfect form, imo. snap off the white tips and affix one to each upper front tooth for instant vampire fangs, mold the other two sections into big, mushy cornballs — you know the drill.
