OK hehe but shape actually contributes a lot to the overall taste and experience of candy. My favorite reese's used to be the peanut butter bar because it had a much better ratio of chocolate and peanut butter. Exact same ingredients, different shape, better candy. (To me.)

Everything contributes to the experience of anything. Shape, color, texture etc. Pasta is a great example of this. A cool thing to try is to drink water from different kinds of glassware, cups, anything. Even the light in the area we're in and our current mood has an effect.
