the original comic

Back in my day, we just ate the peanut candy and died.

"gender-neutral candy"

Jesus Christ these people are so legitimately terrified of everything. Every single thing they make or do is riddled with their insecurities like that.

Aren't like 99% of candies gender neutral tho?

[–] mister_flibble@lemm.ee 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

That kid just REALLY hates Mr. Goodbar's

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Mr Tom too.

About 20% of m&ms are female - but is there any legitimate 100% female candy?

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Mounds. You know the song: 🎵 Almond Joy's got nuts, mounds don't 🎵

This is admittedly assuming a candy gender binary. I'm certainly open to candy non-binary gender options but admittedly have not as of yet heard for such consideration from any non-binary candies themselves.

No, most candy bars are phallic symbols.

Gotta have that dick vein on my Snickers 😤

Twix is gay because there’s two of them in the same wrapper

[–] TheMinions@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Man as someone with a kid who is both allergic to dairy and gluten this just makes me sad.

My kid has real dietary needs, and I try not to burden whoever is handing out free candy for n Halloween with this.

My wife and I have taught my kid to be thankful to everyone, even if they can’t eat that particular candy when we do an allergen check later that night.

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I'm similar to your kid. I have celiac and also severe lactose intolerance. Fortunately, a lot of candy is free of most allergens. For example, Sour Patch kids and Laffy Taffy. (Not sure if it's vegan though.) I also had a nephew with a peanut allergy, so I try to read labels when I buy Halloween candy (though this year I decided to reverse trick or treat the houses on my block with kids and then turn the lights off, since kids don't really go out anymore like they used to.)

[–] LukeMedia@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sour patch kids are vegan, fun sized laffy taffy is vegan. The bigger laffy taffy isn't vegan.

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 3 points 11 months ago

Good to know, thanks! I think most of the candy I eat is vegan. In fact, it would probably be an easy switch for me to go vegan.

Back in my day, we just ate cum.
