I nearly killed my elderly and disabled mother last night because she wouldn't give me a hug. I like the banana flavored ones.
No I am not joking, yes she gave me a hug this morning. I felt nothing.

>>17792512
How in the fuck can you guys hate candy corn?

I feel like that's what the Runts tank in hell would look like.

>artificial banana flavor wasn’t developed based on that variety of banana. It was developed based on a variety called the Gros Michel, or the Big Mike. This variety of banana was the standard in America until the 1950s, when a fungus essentially wiped out the Gros Michel.

that is a load of horse shit. It's simply difficult to artificially match the banana flavor profile without a bunch of residual flavors from the high levels of ethyl acrylate and pyridine

>>17793308
Just go eat a gros-michel nigger it tastes exactly like that.
They're not extinct just not massively grown any more thus expensive.
you'll pay 2 dollars for a banana but at least you won't be a retarded nigger any more.

>>17793343
buy them where? i've never seen them in stores where i live.

>>17792084
I dunno I like it

>>17792077
I am a psychopath. It might have something to do with all of the banana flavoured penicillin I had to take for inner ear infections as a kid, but I find something soothing about banana flavoured candy, on the same base level as I find tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches soothing.

>>17792083
That isn't the flavour. They are strawberry flavour and look like a shrimp

>>17792077
>candy
OP is a fatass.

fatty

you won't find them in a super market or a big store like that, they're not economically viable products for mass distribution.

You'll find them where you find more uncommon varieties of other fruits in your country.

I don't know where you live but in my country I can find them at specialised fruit vendors, at the markets, or at exotic grocers etc..

If you're lucky and there's one near you you should try other uncommon fruits as well.

Most fruit varieties sold in super markets are chosen for their ease of transport or such criteria. And as a result a lot of them are much blander varieties of another better fruit.

>>17792517
This.
Why the fuck they sell Only-banana runts In my country? Are we in hell?

>>17793308
While it's true it's hard to get those flavors I do believe that the artificial banana flavor is in fact based off of the older bananans.

I've always loved that candy banana flavor, but runts aren't that great in general. banana laffy taffy is better, or if you're blessed and live in an area where you can get these then you'll understand

absolute psychopath here because BANANA IS THE SHIT

>>17793709
I'll keep my eyes out for it. If it's bad I'll come back and bulli u.

My local mall sells banana only by the pound. Grab myself some, mix in some normal runts for the best ratio.

Pleb spotted. Banana is the best candy flavor.

>>17792077
i don't eat simulacra of food, because i prefer food, but i liked banana when i was a child and movie theaters didn't offer food. it's based on Gros Michel bananas, which you can still buy if you try hard enough.

>>17792100
why do runts out of these disgusting quarter machines taste so much better than the box

My friend work at one of those microlabs where they make flavour for other companies
He made scrotum flavored candies. We made it taste them to some girl friends and they said they were somewhat legit

Green apple or watermelon for me, really hate those flavors in candy.

>>17794269
Why did he make scrotum flavor?

Artificial banana flavour is the best taste humans can experience.

now you're just saying things to make me angry

>>17794067
because you only get a few of them and you instinctively eat them slower and experience them differently

watermelon

Runts was the only candy machine I always asked my mom for a quarter for, and it was 100% because of the banana shaped banana ones.

>>17792161
This holy shit. I tried one when I was like 8 and gagged. The others were okay, but that banana flavor is cursed. The only time I've had good banana-flavored candy was when it was mixed with something else, like strawberry.

banana flavor actually tastes like real bananas just not the one you are used to eating because the banana blight nearly wiped out the better tasting Gros Michel strain and now we're stuck with bland Cavendish bananas

>>17792077
I don't know why it's tropical starburst jellybeans, it just is.

Banana is the best flavor of anything and I am a functional adult.
I did however chip my tooth on a banana hi chew and never got it fixed so take that for what you will.
