The official RWBY YT channel posted what each of the team's favorite candy would be. They just picked food that matches their color, except Ruby. Also... gum?

I keep forgetting youtube has text/picture posts now but I am rolling at how they cropped that Blake image, it looks like she's a floating head, her neck blends into the background

The gum thing is silly but I can actually see a bit of a follow-through with their choices for Weiss -- macarons having a bit of high-class connotations and gum often being seen as an alternative to eating junk food. The mint-flavoring especially is more of a no-nonsense adult thing vs. bubblegum.

The other two yeah they just picked themed colors, but for Yang I don't know what the second candy is. It looks like maybe gummy worms but they're in the shape of vampire fangs? And against an orange backdrop for some reason?

Ruby they kinda doubled-down on the chocolate chips thing despite the fact her favorite food is supposed to be strawberries. I've liked the various headcanons I've seen, tho, that Ruby's Semblance operates off of sugar or just burns a LOT of calories so that's why she has a sweet tooth.
