Candy Blog

1. I had some of these last week.  I thought it had a strange chemical aftertaste to them.  I don’t care to have them again.

2. They look tasty… I wonder if they’d be better if the inside was more of a gel instead?

   I’ll have to pick these up when I see them… *adds them to growing list*

4. I love the smell of Elmer’s glue, almost as much as library paste.

5. When I was growing up, I used to bite off the ends of a red vine and then use it as a straw for my soda.  Good times.  Good times.

6. Marvo, I think they actually make a “red vine” straw and sell them at the counter at 7-11s and such for Slurpees. I think they’re a bit bigger in diameter though.

8. I think Twerpz are delicious, and I hope they are around for a long time.  I would, however, describe the inner chewy filling more along the lines of ‘tangy’ than ‘sour’.

10. I love Twerps!  I cannot stop eating them.  I have even purchased the large bag at Target and eaten all of them!  They are so dangerous!

13. THIS IS THE BEST CANDY EVER! I absolutly LOVE twerpz! I am 12 and everyone I know HATES them, but to me, they are the best candy that has ever been made!

14. I love these but it seems that they have been discontinued. The only place I could find them in town was Target and they all their bags marked down to 68 cents. I bought 4 bags and now I need a fix and can’t get it!

15. Twerpz are a rare breed of candy that everyone seems to love or hate. I salivate just thinking about them. My boyfriend is absolutely addicted and they are a must whenever we buy snacks. We’ve given to strangers when we’re out, because people can’t help but asking “What ARE those?” and of course the pungent aroma coming from the bag. The reactions have been mixed.

16. Omg, I LOVE Twerpz.  I’m addicted to them! 

    I actually bought them because I was craving Tweeterz, another Twizzler-brand of candy, and I thoughht these might be similar.  They weren’t, but they’re just as delicious!

    I’m not too fond of using my Twizzler’s as a straw.  The first time I did that was incidently also the first time I had an alchoholic beverage (champagne.) Not a good combo...Maybe I should give the Twizzler straw another chance in a less offensive drink.

17. OMG i luv twerpz they ROC out loud ttly I can’t get ENough

18. Twerpz are SOOO yummy!  I love them so much.  You can find the larger bags at places like CVS.  I can manage to polish a little bag in 2 days.  Any Twizzler product is addictive for me!

    Comment by Karey on 9/26/07 at 12:34 pm

     

19. Simply put the best candy ever.

    Comment by E.S on 10/18/07 at 6:33 pm

     

20. I am addicted to Twerpz but have not been able to find them for the last several months in the Boston area.  CVS and Shaw’s no longer carries them; does ANYONE know where I can find them?

    Comment by Katie on 10/27/07 at 12:21 pm

     

21. I’m also addicted to these things, and like Katie and others noted, they have also been discontinued at the CVS stores in the DC area (a total travesty!!!) One note as far as those who think the flavor was odd/offensive - sometimes I found that periodically the orange ones could have a bitter taste (but it never stopped me from eating another one, just in case!)

    Hershey, save us!  Bring them back!!!

22. The safeway supermaket chain carry’s Twerpzs, I normally buy two bags a week there from them.

    Comment by Chris on 12/20/07 at 4:30 pm

     

23. I love Twerpies!  I eat them all the time, as well.  Right now, i got them on sale at Walgreens, and there are 7 bags in front of me.  Obsessed?  Just a little!

24. twerpz are absolutely the best candy i’ve ever tried to date. if this discontinued rumor is true i am heartbroken. they seem to be selling at the drug stores in big size, and all the movie theatres sell them.
    DEEEELIICCIOOUS...must go purchase some now.
    does anyone else find them addictive?

26. I have been buying my Twerps at Walgreens in CT, and now that I’ve got myself & everyone I know hooked on them, I can’t find them there anymore. This is an outrage!!! I need to know where I can buy more Twerpz!

27. love em till death

    Comment by moh on 9/19/08 at 3:15 pm

     

28. Ah! I LOVE Twerps! I even wrote a blog entry about them! I’ve been known to eat an entire bag of them in one sitting (not recommended.)

    Comment by flutterbyblue on 9/30/08 at 2:31 pm

     

29. OMG! Walgreens is where I was buying my Twerps then I noticed a shelf tag that they were discontinuing stocking them. I bought up all I could find (sorry other Twerps lovers in central CT). Now I’m out and I can’t find them anywhere! I love this candy. I’m totally addicted!! Where can we get our Twerps now?

30. Twerpz are amazing! And what I find really neat about them is that not a whole lot of people really know what they are. Walgreens actually discontinued them a few weeks ago, and this was really disappointing, because they are so hard for me to find! I hope they stick around

31. Yesterday I saw Twerpz Strawberry stuffed with orange! I had not heard of them before, but today I checked this blog so I’m going to buy some after work!

    Location - Shopper’s Drug Mart, Toronto, ON.

    Has anyone spotted them in the US of A?

    Comment by lpkay on 10/21/08 at 8:14 am

     

32. A correction to my comment #31. The Twerpz I saw were not strawberry stuffed with orange, instead they are the expected 2 strawberry/orange flavours. The store lighting made the orange and red colours look the same.

35. I love Twerps...I can eat a bag a day.  Where can I buy them other that Hagan Stores?  Walgreen’s stopped selling them.  Help!!

    Comment by Loretta Culler on 11/14/08 at 12:34 pm

     

36. I’ve tried contacting Hershey Co about this.

    At their website it still lists Walgreens as a place to purchase Twerpz but, as we all have commented, they are not available there any longer.
    Through the website I contacted then to tell them that the item is not available at Walgrrens and asked where I could buy them now. My email contact was “answered” over a week later with a form letter stating that the product is still being made and is available all over the country. It then went on to tell me that their records show that the product was scanned for purchase at several Walgreen’s in my area over the last 3 months. Apparently they didn’t read my letter very carefully! or they just don’t care?

    Anyone else have any contact with Hershey on Twerpz availability?

    Comment by dette on 11/18/08 at 12:05 pm
