Rediscovering Candy In Middle Age

“The first time I had a Milky Way after years of candy sobriety, I was jolted by the Madeleine experience of the thing. I was transported back to childhood pleasures – the leap into the neighborhood pool, the afternoon spent at the movies, the whispering with girlfriends at the back of the school bus. Since then I have made an effort to reacquaint myself with candy, in part out of a desire to reconnect with that primal past, and in part because, well, candy tastes really good.”
