I trick-or-treated during the sixties, so full-sized candy bars were the norm. Favorites: Clark bars, Zagnuts, 5th Avenue, Nestle Crunch. Chunky's used to be a family favorite until my sister bit into one and found a worm - 45 years later, neither of us will even try to eat one.
Someone mentioned popcorn balls on their "loathed" list - we used to line up at one neighbor's house for them. They alternated annually between freshly made hot popcorn balls and caramel apples. If they were between batches we'd just hang around until the next batch was done.
Wasn't fond of toffee or black licorice back then, except Good'n'Plenty, so I guess that would be on my loathed list along with apples (non-caramel). We didn't get much that wasn't desirable and my sister and I slept with our treat bags then hid them during the day while we were at school. Didn't trust each other and definitely not my dad.
