My visiting teacher brought me some chocolate-covered cinnamon bears the other day (yeah, they're sooooo gone), and as I was eating them Jason said, "Hey, you can't just chow those things down! You gotta enjoy them! One of those will last you a whole hour!" Yeah right. Here's the thing...I AM A CHEWER! It is nearly impossible for me to put a piece of chocolate in my mouth and NOT chew it. I love chewing it as much as I love tasting it. So back to the cinnamon bears...this is why they are so wonderful...they are chocolate and they are chewy! Oh, I love, love, love it. To mix those wonderful tastes together while your teeth just chomp on around it all...I'm tellin' ya, it's heavenly. Anyway, this is an on-going argument between Jason and I...Sucking or Chewing. He simply does not understand the joys of chewing and I am simply not patient enough to suck...and I HONESTLY ENJOY CHEWING! Ice...the chopped up kind from the restaurants..oh how I love to chew it. Gummy worms...how can you suck on a gummy worm? And if you ask me, suckers are just kind of pointless unless there is something to chew inside. So Jason feels jipped because he sucks one piece of chocolate in the time I eat four. Hmmm...I've tried, I really have, but it's simply not as joyful to suck on it as it is to chew it. You snooze, you lose.So what are you? A sucker or a chewer? I love it when I meet chewers like myself, it's one more person to argue with Jason about the joys of chewing. And hey...if you are a sucker...I'll share my chocolate with you. You can wrap your tongue around it for hours on end. Too bad the rest will be gone when your done.

Oh my gosh! me and Trav are exactly the same! I drive him crazy because I chew rather than savor and suck....more for us ;)
Gotta chew!! Lollipops are pointless!
I'm a chewer! Could this be a McKellar boy thing about saving every piece of candy WAY too long?
CHEWER here! It is probably better to do it Jason's way if you are trying to save calories, but who eats candy to save calories? Oh and BTW, Maceys has their sweets cinnamon bears on sale this week for 88cents. They are not chocolate dipped, but almost as good!
Must be a girl thing - Chewers. Suckers Rule!
I'm a "soft" chewer. I hate getting things stuck in my teeth, but so don't have the patience for sucking on something. It's more of a combination of the two. Yeah, I've got to be difficult.
Love ice! Small ice, to chew! Definitly a chewer...cannot stand to suck on things...and funny thing is my kids are the same way!
My husband is a swallower. I don't think he even tastes the stuff that passes from his hand to his stomach; so why does he bother eating the quality candy? Because it's there, same as the cheap stuff.
I am a nibbly sucker or a slow chewer. Somewhere in between.
I'm a chewer for sure when it comes to gummy things, but a sucker when it comes to the more firm stuff like ice and chocolate. I like to make the chocolate taste last.
Thank you Marie!
