On a day of gloom, clouds and rain, a modest treat will suffice the taste buds. I always find that in times of relaxation, the food must compliment the attitude. This is not a day for sour, hot, spicy or even gummi. This day calls for something else entirely new. This day will stand as the day the simple treat gets the attention it deserves. Brach’s is renowned for its old timey candy. Treats like candy corn, gummi bears, salt water taffy and so on. Here we have one of their more humble candies. The Maple Nut Goodies. Each piece is a unique combination of fresh oven roasted Georgia peanuts, and a buttery toffee center covered in real maple syrup coating.
You see what I mean by the humble treat on a rainy day? Get your glass of milk, light up the fire, pop in your favorite movie and snuggle close to that special someone in your life. And what could be the treat of consumption you ask? Why it’s the Maple Nut Goodies. Just a few pieces and you are put to ease by the simple comforting effect they will have on your senses. They will tuck you in at night and sing you sweet songs of the sugar plum fairies dancing in your dreams. Heck, you could even have your cup of coffee and a few Maple Nut Goodies in the morning on your way to work, and you wont even be thinking about the hours of traffic your about to enter.
