When I was a kid trick or treating, I always threw away the candy corn, along with the Mounds bars.

I like it, or used to, but I avoid it.

My wife, over our thirty years of marriage, has mostly gotten me off the sugary snacks habit. Now, when something's that sweet, I really notice it.

Does anyone else eat them in three pieces, by the colored sections? I can’t just eat a whole one. They have to be eaten by each section of color.


Take Brian Regan's bit on Fig Newtons & replace it with candy corn, that's about how they're consumed here.

I am guilty of eating by colored sections.

It's one of the few candies I can't eat. I don't know if it is the texture or taste that bothers me the most.

I tried to link to the right spot, but it isn't working. The whole of this video is very interesting and worth a watch if you're over 40.

But a zoom up to 11:40 will put you at the "Satan's ear wax" part. Big Grin
