Most Popular Halloween Candy Per State
Halloween is less than two weeks away, and I, for one, am excited. Sure, I might have no idea who or what I'm going as or what my plans are, but if there's one thing that always makes Halloween the best holiday ever, it's CANDY.
Seriously, I can have zero plans and stay home with Hocus Pocus on Halloween and as long as I have a plastic pumpkin full of Milky Ways, Kit Kats and Sour Patch Kids, I'm a happy camper.
As with TV shows, each state in our gloriously divided country (17 days until Election Day, everyone!) has a different opinion on which candy owns all Halloween candies. On the plus side, five states agreed on one thing. On the not-so-plus side, that thing was candy corn (sorry, but ew.)
