Us a boot bag, and in their boo bag was
literally candy that you would buy at like a right aid.
And I don't even think they're in business anymore. I
said to Chelsea, I go, oh good, this is a
boot bag. We don't even have kids around here, so
we don't even have candy, you know, for around the house.
I look in the boot bag, it's like Brox candy.

You can you can tell that your grandma is such
an influence in your life because only kids who were
raised by grandma's are the ones that like candy like that.

doesn't matter is one of those candies.

give me Grandma's TUTSI rolls all right.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
So so okay, So here's a question, and this is
the honest question. I want to throw this out there.
I want to ask the question, what's the candy that
everybody hates but you freaking love because all these candies
that you guys mentioned are candies that they give you
for free at places like It's not like they don't
put those in dishes for like those dumb dumb yes suckers.
(02:14):

crab those dumb dumbs. Those are cheap crap candy. I
see that, TOTSI rolls, you want to roll Twtsy pops.

at the cash register? Because they're cheap, they're available, and
they're delicious, and who doesn't love them? They are cheap, cheap, cheap,
and they got a mango pineapple flavored that's out of
his world.
Speaker 1 (02:43):

a good one for Shannon to do, as like one
of her last dirty stories. But I'll throw it in now.
Most people finish their candy before Halloween. American consumers as
consume their Halloween candy before the date even arrives on
(03:04):
average twice they have to go restock. Restocking their candy
is actually becoming more and more significant, and anybody that
buys their candy before October the twentieth are typically the
people that end up eating all their candy. So if
you bought your candy and you already have it at home,
guarantee you that you're eating that candy.

I usually, oh did you?
Speaker 6 (03:26):
