The Economy Candy Shopping Experience

  • Summary

  • D&A head to Economy Candy on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, and make a side visit to IT’SUGAR in Coney Island (check out their candy cans). Would you do business with a candy sleuth calling himself “The Candyman”? What rare candies would you have him track down: Tangy Taffy? Gatorgum? A Hi-Chew flavor that you maybe only dreamt of? How are your Pez-loading skills? Are imported candy bars as good as their reputation? Any brands you’d like Leaf to resurrect? Were you ever soothed by the food factory tours of Unwrapped? Should Haribo gummy mustard strings actually taste like mustard? Is it time to rewrite some of LFO’s Summer Girls?


    (Note: There will most likely not be a new episode next week, in that late-August way, but the Full Carts Team looks forward to getting back to it. Thank you for being here!)
