It is called Goodart's Candy and it has been business since 1939. If it wasn't good, it would not still be in business today. Good is part of its name and rightfully so! There is nothing sweeter or better than a Goodart's peanut pattie. Their peanut brittle is perfection! read more

I discovered Goodart's candies at a gas station convenience store on a recent road trip through West Texas. I was famished and needed something a little salty and a little sweet. As expected, the vast majority of the convenience store foodstuffs were heavily processed, mass-produced garbage. I was about to give up and lick my own sweaty pecs for salt when I spotted the Goodart's display. I'd never heard of Goodart's before, but the spartan packaging (indicative of a small, independently owned company) and "Go Texan!" branding gave me a good first impression. The options included an assortment of peanut candies, including various brittles and something new to me: a "Peanut Pattie [sic]." I grabbed the largest iteration of the "pattie" (the aptly named "Super Pattie"), paid the inbred Devil's reject at the counter, and went on my way. The "pattie" struck me as a cross between a nougat and a brittle: not quite as soft as the former, but not nearly as crunchy (and...uh...brittle) as the latter. Lightly caramelized sugar was the dominant flavor, but the salt from the peanuts crept in towards the end of every bite. I would have preferred a more balanced salt-to-sweet ratio, but I was so famished that I woofed that one-pound bad boy down faster than a...starving, sweaty, clairsentient/clairaudient occultist man-child wearing glow-in-the-dark Pokémon pajama bottoms. As my blood sugar returned to normal, I took a moment to Google the company and discovered that Goodart's has been making its peanut candies by hand in small batches since 1939. The company consists of only ten employees, all of them Lubbock natives. The products are available at convenience stores and family-owned cafes throughout West Texas. If you spot the distinctive Goodart's packaging at a convenience store, I'd suggest giving the pattie (or perhaps the brittle) a try. Side note: I was so delirious with hunger and low blood sugar that I initially mistook the name as "Goodfart's." Indeed, peanuts contain a significant amount of flatulence-producing phytates and tannins, so my hypoglycemic visual hallucination was rooted in scientific fact. I would, however, hesitate to describe my emissions as "good," as my long-suffering dad/chauffeur would indubitably substantiate. But I digress. The pattie tasted good and I recommend that you eat one. read more
