Coming to KDH where Class and Trash was located. As a Sugar Land store. Personally I have only been in the candy store across from KDH McDonalds. Once was enough. The smell of candy was almost enough to put me into a diabetic coma. Who would have thought there is so much money to make selling candy. |

There are a ton of local rumors that all these candy stores are like Breaking Bad car washes. It is hard to fathom that enough sugar candy is being sold in the OBX to support all of them. |

I think S&S / Sunsations does pretty well - these SKs, I'm pretty sure, are not their only biz. But, you would be floored by the margins on candy...better than jewelry/precious stones. I have a long time friend in another coastal community that started printing/selling tee shirts in the '70's...parlayed that into cottage rentals/a dive shop/ and selling trinkets and candy...he's now easily worth 9 figures. |

The article says there are three factions and all owned by different people (or LLC's). None are Wings owners. The article says they are waiting for their container top arrive with the sugar. Sounds like a huge shipping container from China with super cheap sugar stuff. Not for me. |

Those places are hideous! Scars on the landscape Another nail in the coffin of what used to be our beautiful Banks. |

It tastes good and it’s got the sugar I need to get me going in the morning. |

I know the only place we go for candy is FORBES btw you can have it shipped on their website. I must have the dark chocolate sea salt caramels and the chocolate covered toffee bars.. none of that cheap tasting Sugarland candy interests me, |

They have been around since 1938. My great Aunt and Uncle owned a small mom and pop candy store in the West Oak Lane section of Philadelphia from 1922 to 1944, then moved it to the Reading Terminal Market and closed it in 1973. |

Shared a house with relatives, all friends. We’re healthy eaters, but were shocked when they made a trip to Dollar General and came back with huge bags of candy, which they devoured. Different world from ours. |

Remember when Stuckeys Shops used to be all along the interstates selling all that tacky junk and those perfectly awful pecan rolls? I'm not sure exactly when their decline began but it really wasn't a great loss. |
