Check it out, and feel free to leave us any feedback - or even suggestions on snacks and candy you'd like to see!  

10. Malang Cow Chewy Candy (Strawberry) malang-cow-strawberry "Malang" means soft in Korean (think "malleable"). "Soft cow" doesn't sound too appetizing, but you won't be thinking those words when you try this milky strawberry candy!  

9. Cola Candy cola candy Have you ever tried a candy that tastes like a chunk of cola beverage? Many of us hadn't, but many of us loved it once we did!  

8. Anytime Candy anytime-candy How convenient! A candy for...any time. These refreshing mints are great for post-meal, before-meal, during-meal. Or for any non-meal situations, too.  

7. Plum Candy plum candy Do you know that one poem about children nestled in bed, and visions of plum candy danced in their heads? Well, it went something like that...  

6. Aye-shyuh Sour Candy aye-shyuh-sour-candy Is this a candy for pirates with lisps? No! But you'll make a face like a snarling pirate captain when you try these sour candies! Then, like a Korean pirate, you'll yell, "Aye, shyuh!"

  5. Real Candy real-candy-orange If you need a sweet reality check, the Real Candies will do the trick. These creamy and fruity hard candies will keep you grounded. And it comes in FOUR flavors! Along with the orange, be sure to try the peach, strawberry, and blueberry variants.
