The People vs. Sour Patch Kids

Do you all remember the time I said ‘Sour patch kids are a lot like writing, some moments are sweet, others sour, but all are delicious’?

Well insert life where writing sits and you have yourself some people who disagree. Right now on Facebook there is a debate happening - The People vs. Sour Patch Kids.

Too many lives have already been compromised and the fighting must stop.

These adorable little runts are wreaking havoc across the nation. They’ve managed to ruin weddings, dinner parties, not to mention they love hijacking boats, and especially going kitty-back-riding. Are you seeing the chaos?
What say you? Do you stand for these little minions ruining people’s lives or do you have something to say about this epidemic.

Take your stance!
Are you for… or are you against?

Tell me your experience with Sour Patch Kids and two lucky winners will walk away with a t-shirt and a bag of candy.
THINK YOU’VE GOT A CASE? Upload photos or videos showing damages caused by a Sour Patch Kid… HERE!!!!!

FOR THOSE WITH WRITERS BLOCK OR PLAYING THE PROCRASTINATION GAME VISIT HERE. Like the page, trust me... on days you don't feel like being productive the cases will keep your mind negative free with all the giggle fits that are sure to come.

And remember... no matter how bad things get keep a few sour patch kids around, they provide good entertainment.

I LOVE sour patch kids. I didn't used to love them, I barely acknowledged their existence. But then this girl entered my life with a love of all things sour-patch. :) Friends hook us on the weirdest things, right? Sour patch kids, drugs, Dr. Who....

I used to eat Sour Patch Kids by the pound. Any time we went to the movie theater when I was a teenager/young adult I would buy two packages. Now, though, I can't eat them. I've somehow developed a rather painful intolerance for any type of sour candies. I can eat lemons, drink lemonade, use lemon or lime juice in cooking. I just can't eat sour candies at all anymore. *sighs*

I'm with Karen. I've never tried Sour Patch Kids. Am I missing out?

I haven't eaten sour patch kids in years. We used to go to the dollar theater in the WVC mall when I was little and my dad would buy them for me. I didn't like the green and yellow ones so I'd just eat the red and orange ones. I'd such all the sour off them and then just eat the gummies! So good. I eventually stopped because they gave me cancor sores, but every now and again when they cross my mind (like when I read your post) my mouth waters just a bit. I'm definitely for the little buggers. Can't help it. I suppose it was ingrained in me in childhood. Whatcha gonna do? :D

Now I have to go out and buy a bag of them. ;D

Hope you had a great summer Jen! I've missed visiting your blog. I'm so glad to be back. ;)

LOVE.

At first I was thinking Garbage Pail Kids -- I'm not too crazy about the cards, but I loved the gum that came in the package. Totally off subject, I know. :D

Of course I know that quote!! I've featured it on more than one quote day post on my blog! I think it's soon time to add it to another Monday's bunch of quotes again. :)
