The top 10 candies weren’t surprising, but the breakdown of the favorites by state offered some interesting results. For instance, Ohio’s favorite Halloween candy is Blow Pops. In Montana, it’s Dubble Bubble Gum; Georgia’s fav is Swedish Fish and Lemonheads for Louisiana. But none of these four candies made the top 10 for the nation. Here are those list toppers in order of popularity, least first, with morsels of their sweet-and not-so-sweet -origins mixed in.

Wilbur is still around and well known to the people of Pennsylvania. The individually labeled Wilbur Chocolate candies are really just for promotional purposes, the real focus of the company is bulk orders of ingredient products for Cargill. BUT Wilbur Buds are still produced using the old recipe and remain far superior to Hershey Kisses (the dark chocolate ones are amazing) Source: I used to work for the company in Lititz PA

To me hating candy corn is a very internet culture thing. It's only the past few years I've ever heard anything bad about it and now that's all you hear about it. I've always thought of it as more a decorative thing than a candy people seek out but I never remember anybody saying it was gross either.

@@saltydog7038 Same! I’ve always known a few people who weren’t big fans of candy corn compared to all the other treats they get on/near Halloween but the I feel like the intense candy corn hatred & slander came out of left field. I always liked candy corn. Sure, it’s not engineered to be exceptionally hyperpalatable like more modern candies and has non-distinct old-fashion flavor but I always enjoyed it anyway. It’s a nice “palate cleanser” between all the chocolate i eat on Halloween and the season isn’t the same without them to me

The star on the wrapper getting you a free Tootsie Roll may not have been a real thing but a local corner store would honor it when kids came in and asked as he knew that we'd then proceed to lay out some "allowance" for other treats as well. This was back when Tootsie Rolls cost a few pennies or a nickel for two, BTW.

This video changed my life. I took the narrator's advice and ate my candy corns with salted peanuts. absolutely delicious. Its all I can eat now. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner it's candy corn and peanuts. Its what I eat for snacks. Its what I eat non stop. All day and night long. I don't sleep, I don't watch tv or touch my wife anymore. I mean exwife. She left me after I got fired for eating candy corn and peanuts during a surgery I was attending and after she found out I blew our savings on candy corn and peanuts. Lost my house and kids as well. Now I am on the streets panhandling for change so I can get my candy corn and peanut fix.

Halloween candy sold in stores today seems a lot less varied today than in the 1960's. I remember peanut butter taffy wrapped in black and orange wax paper, and (gone forever) those black and orange pea-sized balls in square cellophane packets. The black ones were licorice, and the orange ones were orange-flavored. I also liked Red-Hots and Boston Baked Beans, and people actually used to hand out boxes of them and full-sized candy bars, too. I hated BB Bats, and knew a boy who loved them. We gladly traded my BB Bats for his chocolate candy. My seasonal candy of choice (from what little the stores offer today) is Snickers, Baby Ruths, Pay Days, peanut butter cups, or just plain Hershey bars. Even when I was little, I found candy corn and Harvest Mello-cremes pretty to look at - but too damned sweet!

Three Musketeers bars were my favourite as a kid. Just between you, me, and the internet, however, I have a soft spot for those rock-hard molasses toffees in Generic Halloween Paper wrappers. They're terrible, but somehow taste like nostalgia. Picking a favourite candy is a bit like trying to pick a favourite book-- you've got to narrow that down by genre. Favourite hard candy? Favourite gummies? Favourite chocolate?

Une summer when I was a kid and reeeeally bored, I counted the licks. It took 376 to reach the tootsie roll. Too remove the rest of he hard candy shell would have taken many more, so I believe the 2000 lick figure was based on complete removal. Once I reached the roll, I considered my job complete, crunched the rest, and moved on with the rest of my summer. 😉

Hershey Chocolate doesn't hold a candle to the rich, melty, creamy Wilbur's chocolates. My father-in-law, a local physician who retired to Moravian Manor Retirement home in Lititz, was often picked up by staff on their way to work, his walker bag carrying a couple of bags of Wilbur Buds. Anyone can order Wilbur's Chocolates online. Note: Lititz, PA was the template for Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. As a child our son used to love to visit all Mr. Rogers' favorite haunts.

Surprised you didn't bring up the classic "You've got chocolate in my peanut butter",..."You've got peanut butter in my chocolate!" commercials when you were highlighting the Reeses Peanut Butter Cups.

I've been eating Wilbur buds since I was a kid! My school used to sell them as part of a fundraiser and I've been to the Wilbur factory in Lititz, PA. Not lying to impress you 🙂

Reese's peanut butter cups, toosie pops and flavored toosie rolls have always been some of my favorite Halloween candy. US smarties are called rockets in Canada and they're my least favorite candy people hand out for Halloween. Canada has british smarties made by Nestlé, they're like m&ms but have a sweet candy shell and they're a popular Halloween candy alongside m&m's. We also have different chocolate bars, like Nestlé crunch (made by ferraro in the usa), Cadbury crunchie and Nestlé coffee crisp (sold only in Canada). Canada has better chocolate than the USA, because like European chocolate it has more cocoa and fat, making it creamier, less grainy and not as sweet compared to American chocolate. Happy Halloween everyone! 🎃👻😈 🧙‍♀️🐈‍⬛️🦇🐺🍬🍫🍭🍪

Peanut butter cups use to be my favorite, until I became allergic to peanuts due to an autoimmune disease. They need to make a peanut free version with one of the alternative nut butters. Like the soy, or sunflower seed butters. 🙏

HP Reese used to be a factory worker who is able to take care of 16 kids and his wife and himself. Oh my my how times have changed. I don't think that's physically possible today and who the heck has 16 kids. At most usually see 6 or 7 siblings these days. The American dream was very strong back then

Really wanted to enjoy this video but the narrator is just not as fun as the normal one. It's especially important in videos like these where most people already know a lot of this information, since there are many videos that were made on this candy in other sources, and are watching it for entertainment purposes.
