"These Molasses Kisses are a retro, seasonal Halloween candy that divides opinion: they offer a gingerbread sweetness with a Tootsie‑Roll–like chew and have been around since the 1940s, yet they’re still hated by most trick‑or‑treaters for their old‑timey flavor. The author hesitates to include them but admits they aren’t bad." - Karon Liu
