Candy Corn Is the Worst Halloween Candy, According to a Survey

It’s an issue that American society.

No, I’m not talking about impeachment, or your favorite football team. I’m talking about…candy corn.

I’m kind of indifferent about the whole thing, but I will say that, as a kid, I was always less than thrilled when I got candy corn while trick or treating (which I stopped doing when I turned 24). Gimme the good stuff, please! I need Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Butterfingers, and Dum Dums.

According to a recent survey by CandyStore.com, candy corn is the worst Halloween candy. They weren’t messing around, either. They conducted this survey like scientists in a lab. First, they looked at candy rankings from websites like Business Insider, Huffington Post, Bon Appetit, and Buzzfeed.

CandyStore.com then surveyed 40,000 of their own customers who buy candy from their website. They then combined all the information, crunched the numbers, and came up with definitive lists of the top 10 best and top 10 worst Halloween candies.

Here are the top 10 worst Halloween candies, according to the survey.

10. Bit-O-Honey

9. Good & Plenty

8. Licorice

7. Smarties

6. Tootsie Rolls

5. Necco Wafers

4. Wax Coke Bottles

3. Peanut Butter Kisses

2. Circus Peanuts (last year’s #1)

1. Candy Corn

Do you want to see the 10 best candies from the survey? Of course you do! Here you go.

10. Hershey Bar

9. Skittles

8. Sour Patch Kids

7. Butterfinger

6. Nerds

5. M&Ms

4. Kit Kat

Ahhh, the good old days.

New @Reeses Cups are arriving in stores in mid-April, but NYC was given a chance to get their hands on the Peanut Butter Lover and Chocolate Lover Cups early! Visit the Reese’s Swap Shop on 321 Canal Street to swap something in exchange for a new Reese’s Cup of your choosing. ? • ? (March 25th – 26th from 12pm – 6pm only). If y?u’re reading this, it’s too late…for today. But definitely go tomorrow while you still can! • ?? Chocolate Lovers – Although it doesn’t look tremendously different in the picture, the Chocolate Lovers Cup definitely does contain discernibly less peanut butter than the original Reese’s Cups. In fact, it was refreshing to eat a Reese’s Cup with a bit less peanut butter. Although this isn’t our preference, this may certainly sit well with those that don’t enjoy Reese’s Cups because there’s “too much” peanut butter for their liking. • ?? Peanut Butter Lovers – This cup is a game changer and it went away too fast. It doesn’t help that Matthew and I had to share it. ? There’s a hint of chocolate surrounding the cup, but the creamy peanut butter is the star of the show. The peanut butter in the center of the cup is the Reese’s peanut butter we are used to, but the peanut butter at the top of the cup has got a Hershey’s Gold vibe to it; but made of peanut butter. We absolutely can’t wait for these to release!
