"...weird round things that come in the black and orange wax paper..."

You mean those things that look like taffy? Those are PEANUT BUTTER
CANDY KISSES, and they are great, although I confess I haven't had one
for years. 

They are a salty peanut butter chew with bits of peanuts in them. The
closest you can come in a commercial candy it a Bit'O'Honey bar, which
really isn't a bar but several bite-sized flat rectangular chews; also
very yummy.

Peanut butter kisses are and always were my all-time favorite
Holloween candy, and Holloween is the only time you can find them.

My guess is that today's kids and many adults won't even try them
since they don't have a familiar multicolored wrapper and brand name.
It's a shame that our world has become so homogenized that anything
that doesn't have a recognizable name, is too suspect to even try. 

Say what you like, but I love Peanut Butter Kisses.

Se la vie.
