点评:Shopping the early fall sales in Kittery, I took a break and went to Yummies Candy & Nuts. I hadn’t been there in ages.
This emporium of candy and nuts claims to have over 10,000 pounds worth in stock.
Near the front, there were souvenirs. Plush stuffed lobsters with Maine embroidered on one claw were $14.99. A kiosk had key chains and other small souvenirs.
The business had grown over the years. The packaged candy and nuts were literally stacked high and low in cubbyhole-type shelving.
Walking through the aisles. I noticed some candies with the names: Root Beer Barrels, Swedish Fish, and Flying Saucers.
Some of the packaged nuts I saw were labeled: Honey Roasted Cashews, Jumbo Peanuts, Pecan Pralines, Butter Toffee Peanuts, Redskin Peanuts, and Brazil Nuts.
I located the sugar-free hard candy and got $3.99 bags of raspberry and lemon.
In the front near the checkout, there were full bins of salt water taffy.. Having lived within 15 miles of the North Atlantic all my life, salt water taffy has always been a summer treat. So, I had to get some. Browsing the bins, I found conventional flavors like Lemon and Butterscotch, plus unexpected flavors such as Creamsicle, Peppermint, and Licorice. I got a mix of ½ dozen pieces.
I rate Yummies Candy & Nuts at 5.0 and highly recommend stopping in for candy, nuts, or both; and, for people from away, maybe a souvenir or two.

翻译:在基特里逛初秋特卖时,我稍事休息,去了Yummies Candy & Nuts。我已经很久没去过那里了。
这家糖果和坚果店声称库存超过1万磅。
靠近店面的角落里摆放着一些纪念品。一只爪子上绣着缅因州标志的毛绒龙虾售价14.99美元。还有一个售货亭出售钥匙链和其他小纪念品。
这家店的生意多年来不断发展。包装好的糖果和坚果堆放在像小隔间一样的货架上,高低错落。
走过过道,我注意到一些糖果的名字是:Root Beer Barrels、Swedish Fish和Flying Saucers。
我看到的一些包装坚果上贴着标签:蜜汁烤腰果、巨型花生、山核桃果仁糖、奶油太妃花生、红皮花生和巴西坚果。
我找到了无糖硬糖,买了一袋3.99美元的覆盆子柠檬味。
在靠近收银台的前面,摆满了装满盐水太妃糖的箱子。我一辈子都住在北大西洋15英里以内,所以盐水太妃糖一直是夏天的美味。所以,我必须买一些。浏览了一下箱子,我发现了柠檬和奶油糖等常见的口味,还有一些意想不到的口味,比如奶油冰棒、薄荷和甘草。我买了半打混合装的。
我给Yummies Candy & Nuts打5.0分,强烈推荐来这里买糖果、坚果,或者两者都买;对于远道而来的朋友,或许还可以买一两件纪念品。
