Noooo!

I'd done such a good job of avoiding the Halloween candy that folks have brought in.

Then I saw the bag of Kit-Kats that someone brought in.

Cookie and wafer candies are to me as Kryptonite is to Superman.

Kit-Kats, like the green K, make me weak.

Coffee Crisps, like Red K, have unpredictable effects.

Twix (any kind) would kill me if I were a plant (really. Just like White Kryptonite. Sadly, White K doesn't even make the list of top 200 stupid ideas from the Silver Age Superman era. Which I still adore, stupidity aside).

Lion Bars would make me lose my superpowers forever if they ever found full US distribution, just like Gold K.

Pocky would only harm Bizarro-yendi, just like Blue Kryptonite.

Butterfingers, like Jewel K, would give extra powers to yendis in the Phantom Zone.

Reese's Sticks, like X-Kryptonite, would give our cats powers (which is why I don't allow them to eat candy).

I'd continue with Silver Kryptonite, but the analogy died a painful death about six comparisons ago.

The point is, my willpower cannot fight off any of these candies.

In my opinion, nothing is more worth having than pocky! Pocky is basically cookie sticks dipped in chocolate, with tons of flavor variants ("Men's" Pocky uses Dark Chocolate, others use Orange or Green Tea instad of chocolate).
