Revisiting Halloween Candy and Burger King Tier List

Re-evaluating Halloween Candy Rankings

• 🎃 The team revisited their 5-year anniversary stream tier list for Halloween candy, aiming to re-rank 17 types based on in-person tasting.
• 💡 Initial rankings caused outrage and division among viewers, particularly regarding Swedish Fish.
• 🍬 The goal was to confirm bottom ranks, top ranks, and potentially sway opinions on divisive candies.

Candy Highlights and Lowlights

• ✅ Kit Kat, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Nerds Gummy Clusters, Peanut M&M's, Snickers, and Twix were consistently ranked S or A tier, often praised for their texture and flavor combinations, especially those with peanuts or cookies.
• ⚠️ Milk Duds plummeted to D/F tier due to their "horrendous mouthfeel" and poor taste, while Payday was also deemed F tier for its unpleasant flavor and texture.
• 🐠 Swedish Fish, a highly divisive candy, moved to C tier, noted for its rubbery, artificial, and waxy texture and mild, sugary flavor.
• 🍫 Other candies like Almond Joy (B/C), Mike and Ike (C), Butterfingers (C/D), Skittles (C), Hershey's Milk Chocolate (C), and M&M's (C) saw minor adjustments or maintained their mid-tier status.

Burger King Reassessment

• 🍔 The team also revisited Burger King's Original Chicken Sandwich and Whopper to get Alfredo's opinion and re-evaluate their previous C-tier ranking for the fast-food chain.
• 🤢 The Original Chicken Sandwich was heavily criticized for its "grey" appearance, "unfamiliar taste," and "public safety hazard" quality, leading to an F-tier rating.
• 🤮 The Whopper was also deemed "terrible" and "ass," with its charbroiled flavor buried by other unpleasant elements, resulting in an F-tier.
• 📉 Overall, Burger King was downgraded to a D/F tier, with the only redeeming item being the chicken fries.

Post-Tasting Reflections

• 😵 The extensive candy tasting led to a sugar overload and feelings of nausea among the tasters.
• 💬 The Burger King meal, despite its poor quality, provided a savory contrast to the overwhelming sweetness of the candy.
• 🚫 The consensus was to avoid Burger King and its main menu items, despite the festive Halloween bag.
