Joining a New School

[helloiswill]

Hey Guys,

When I have joined a new school in the past I like to bring some small goodies to share with the front office and other coworkers. I usually bring big bags of American candies that are hard to find in Asia/China. York peppermint patties and reese's peanut butter cups have worked pretty well in the past but I was thinking about branching out a bit this time. To those of you working in China or with experience living there, what candies or inexpensive snacks do you miss the most while being away? Something that I could easily buy in bulk.

Everyone loves candy...I've never seen anyone not go crazy for Jolly Ranchers! If you are doing small individual items, anything from Bath and Bodyworks--and candles--were a hit with colleagues and students alike in China!

You aren't going to get a magic answer, just buy one of those big mix bags of candies and go with that.
