This candy is disgusting. I threw it away after one bite.

I would not recommend this recipe to anyone. It's a lot of work for a mediocre result.

This recipe is a waste of time. The candy is bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my candy didn't turn out right. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This candy is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still good.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I used almonds and walnuts instead. It turned out great!

I had some trouble getting the candy to set properly, but I think that was my fault. I'm still giving this recipe 5 stars because the flavor is amazing.

I'm not a big fan of nuts, but I really enjoyed this candy. The sweetness of the sugar and the saltiness of the nuts balance each other out perfectly.
