The perk in getting a Kit Kat on Halloween, is that with the abundance of candy around, you don’t have to “break off a piece†and share your chocolate covered wafer.
-
While these are certainly a halloween classic, let’s face it, they just aren’t that good. People eat them because they are there, but who ever really craves them.
-
The best part of Starburst: Not only does the juicy-sweet taste explode in your mouth, but you are never confined to just one flavor. So if lemony yellow is not your fave, you can rest assured knowing that you got a strawberry-(ish) pink in your pack to compensate.
-
Nothing against raisins, they are great — all the other 364 days of the year. But on Halloween, there really just isn’t a place for “nature’s candy.â€
-
A classic is still a classic come Halloween. Is anyone ever disappointed with a crisp wafer, caramel and milk chocolate?
-
Pennies, toothbrushes and just about anything else that isn’t edible should absolutely not be considered an appropriate fill-in for candy.
-
When a candy has an explosive-like reaction in your mouth, it doesn’t really need to offer very much else in order to achieve candy star status.
-
Where does this candy go when it is not Halloween; it seems to only make an appearance during this holiday. While this one is definitely edible, it is always a bit of a disappointment when compared to the other superior treats out there.
-
When you are a chocolate lover, but feel like a little something different, Butterfinger is a welcome change in texture and flavor — a salty, chocolatey, buttery crunch. Butterfinger provides a nice variety in a chocolate stash.
-
Candy Corn is the ultimate Halloween candy, and it feels a little wrong to put it on the top 10 worst Halloween candy list. But the thing is, when it comes to Candy Corn, it makes you feel sick pretty quick — even after you have eaten only a few.
-
No one ever grumbles when finding a Snickers in the Halloween stash; this chocolate nut combination is a general crowd pleaser. Good in all sizes — bite size, fun size and king size (if you can ever get your hands on this one).
-
Fruity, yes. Sweet, yes. But Dots are also tough in texture, get stuck in your teeth and are flat in flavor.
-
Remember these little pebbles of sugary, fruit-flavored candy? Luckily, every year they make a splash come Halloween time. Usually packaged with two different flavors, dispensed from separate spouts, they allow you to choose how you want to enjoy them — one straight-forward taste or in a flavor combination.
-
They are called Now and Later for a reason: Once you finally manage to bite into these deceivingly-rock-hard candy (and be careful not to damage your teeth), these fruity sweets get stuck in your teeth in such a stubborn fashion that you may be tasting them for hours later.
-
I think it is safe to say that almost everyone loves sour candy, or at least loved sour candy at one point in their life. And, no contest, Sour Patch Kids are the kings of the sour candies. Mouth-puckering sour, none of their flavors dissapoint.
-
While these fruit and butterscotch hard candies are a nice treat at the doctor’s office, they just do not belong on Halloween.
-
This could possibly be the candy with the most die-hard fans — fans that will chose nothing else when given a choice of all the candy bars in production. It seems like when you love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, you really love them — almost to the status of an addiction. And Halloween, well, it is a time of year when this peanut-butter-chocolate drug is just given away.
-
A tootsie roll, already a fairly inferior candy in the original chocolate flavor, just cannot pull off other flavors.
-
Maybe an unexpected participant in this list, but this chocolate, crispy rice treat is almost better when it comes in that traditional, Halloween fun size — making it a winner in the realm of Halloween candy. It is almost like it was created especially to be enjoyed on this sweet-indulgent holiday.
-
Just because it looks like it has been around for ages, doesn’t mean that it should taste like it.
