My obsession with Junior Mints...


For so long, I have been the Queen of Junior Mints. They are my go too candy for a quick snack. I have a candy dish on my home office desk, in my living room and by my bed....all for Junior Mints. I love nothing more than some Junior Mints, a Pepsi and a good while laying on the couch at night.


One Christmas, Edgar even got into my Junior Mints when I wasn't looking.  (Edgar is my version of Elf on the Shelf that Daddy bought me when I had my first place when I was 20.)


I just can't get enough of them. My friend bought me a big box to work one day recently and her husband, bought me a smaller box because he thought I needed more.


I have love them since I was a little girl. Mommy & Daddy would take us downtown on the bus since they didn't drive and we would always go to McCroy's. I would get a box of Junior Mints and a box of Pom Poms.


I never see Pom Pom's anymore, but I recently had a little box of Milk Duds from a Halloween Candy mix. It was enough to get me hooked. I forgot how much I like the chocolate caramel flavor.  

Since I rediscovered that chocolate caramel deliciousness I haven't bought any Junior Mints. But as I sit here tonight with a box of Milk Duds and no Junior Mints anywhere in the house, I think it is time to go back to the mints.

Pom Poms was always my favorite! Loved malted milk balls from Sears too.

Have you seen the Junior Mints hot chocolate at Walmart? I saw it yesterday and immediately thought of you!

I bet you could find Pom Poms at a Rocket Fizz store (if you have one around there). I like Jr. Mints and Milk Duds too, but not quite as much as you do! LOL My preference is toffee (like a Heath bar). This is a fun post!!

My brother always got Junior Mints and I always got Pom Poms when we went to the movies. I hadn't thought about Pom Poms in years!
