For me it would be candy corn, or dots.

Same. The instant it touches my tongue I'm transported back to being a kid and my grandmother thinking these were amazing treats and giving them out to us and then getting really upset if we didn't finish them.

And then I remember I have to actually eat the rest of it. So I finish off the first one and then I see the tiny little 59 cent bag that's only got four more of them in it and I feel like it would be a waste of my money and my effort in acquiring the circus peanuts and so I force myself to eat the rest of the bag and then vow to never eat them again.

Until I forget and get another bag.

Cut them up and melt them into something edible. Things don't have to be uses in the form they come in.

I'm not 100% certain they would melt. And I'm not going to spend my own time and money to try to fix everything that's wrong with them.

If you have an idea on a way to make them better, how about you implement them and then make millions of dollars selling them to ignorant rubes like myself?
