Just saw another candy that I cannot stand:

 

I never knew the name of them, just always recognized them by their orange and black wrappers.  This says they are called Mary Jane Peanut Butter Kisses.  

 

Blech.  

I cant say that I remember what they taste like or if I ever even tried one... I think I just disliked them  on principle.

Black Twizzlers? I don't think I've ever seen them. 

I like every one of those things.  Except Circus Peanuts.

 

More along the same lines.

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."
