What do kids want in their pumpkins this Halloween?

1. Smarties. This little candy has been around a long time. At one time, Smarties were banned from my school because kids were breaking it down to powder and snorting it. I bet it burned!
2. Starburst. Too sticky for me.
3. Twix. Yum! Finally a good one.
4. Nerds. My comment? WHY?
5. Skittles. Like Starburst, too sticky for me.
6. Sour Patch Kids. My own children like these (grown children, I should say). Too sour.

8. Laffy Taffy. My son likes this one. Still too sticky for me.
9. Tootsie Rolls. I liked these as a kid, and my son loves them. My dad loved them, too.
10. Kit Kat. Here's another one I can support.
11. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. My second favorite after peanut butter M&Ms.
12. Twizzlers. Not for me. Again, they're sticky.
13. Candy Corn. I normally don't like this candy, but I had some with peanuts mixed in, kind of like a trail mix, and it was delicious!
And there you have it: the most popular candy ranked by kids and courtesy of Pop Sugar and Candy Crate.

My mother was a Kit Kat lover. She'd always buy them to give out at Halloween, making sure to buy at least three time more than she'd need.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is a Milky Way Midnight, but I also like Smarties and buy them for myself sometimes. I would never have thought of snorting them. Why would you do that? Weird. Interesting list.
