In the spirit of [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=600158), pick your favorite Easter candy.
Just pick ONE though.

There is no possible answer except Cadbury Creme Eggs.
Anything else is heretical.
(Though Kinder eggs are close.)

I put malted candy eggs, but only because I’ve never had coconut creme eggs, something which I should rectify immediately.

I’m a sucker for peanut butter cups so I had to choose the Reese’s Eggs

I picked chocolate marshmallow eggs because you didn’t have chocolate marshmallow bunnies which everyone knows is the best.

Since they’re the same except for their shape, for this poll chocolate marshmallow bunnies and other Easter-related chocolate marshmallow candy will be classified with chocolate marshmallow eggs. 😃

I’d probably have voted for peanut butter eggs if they were sold here. As it is, I can force myself to make do with Cadbury Creme eggs.

Cadbury mini eggs. Easter is also by far the best candy holiday.

Those cheap white chocolate eggs or crosses. Yum.

Yes, I’m the only one who eats them. It’s hard to finish them all every year, but I do my best.

For me, it’s a toss up between Robin Eggs and Reese’s PB eggs. Since I can get peanut butter cups anytime of the year, I went with Robin Eggs.
Is anyone else like me and doesn’t really like the two biggies, Peeps & Cadbury Eggs? Both are two sweet for me. I though so even when I was a kid

Jelly beans. Easter is the one time of the year that they sell bags of the black ones. I luv the black ones best. The others are good too.
The other candys are too sweet.
As a kid, I liked the big chocolate rabbit. Best part of my Easter basket.

I voted for Cadbury Caramel eggs, but that was because we could pick only one.
I don’t dislike any candy in the poll!

And here I thought my husband was the only weirdo that liked Cadbury creme eggs.
I picked “other”. It’s a tie.: other #1 - Pastel colored peanut M&Ms. other #2 I thought they were called robin’s eggs, but they are bubble gum instead of malted.

Chocolate covered marshmallows that are egg shaped and sold in egg cartons.

Chocolate bunnies. I don’t care if I’m too old for them, you can have them when you pry them from my cold, dead fingers.
Damn, now I want me some Easter candy.

Now that we’re grown ups, we can splurge and get the good, solid chocolate bunnies instead of the cheap hollow ones you find in Easter baskets. 😃
