Candy corn is one of those things that not too many people are neutral about. Most either love, like, dislike or hate. I am not a big fan of plain candy corn, more of a neutral leaning a bit toward dislike. It is just corn syrup after all, with maybe a little flavoring in, but yesterday since it was inexpensive I bought a fall mix that contained some candy corn, with chocolate bottoms. I just had two pieces. That small bag will it for the season, unless it gets marked down 75 percent after Halloween.

Really? No; however, if you mix candy corn and peanuts it tastes exactly like a Payday bar.

Hmm... I like Payday candy bars. I might try that and see if you're right.

@snowy22315 It was good. Even though I don’t like the candy, it was pretty good combined with cornbread.

@AmbiePam Sounds like a real fall treat. I think I could dig it in a muffin.

I will eat two or three pieces of the original candy corn and am done with it for a few years. The differently flavored candy corn holds my attention a little better and I'll keep sampling the flavors and might eat all of one or two flavors before throwing the rest of the bag away. (Pretty is about the same although she'll keep the open bag for a few months in case she wants to try the other flavors again.)
We usually wait and see if any of the interesting flavored candy corn goes on sale after Halloween before buying any.

This candy corn has chocolate flavoring on the bottom..so it's a bit more interesting than the original. One thing I really don't like though Is those candy pumpkins that taste like marshmellows. They are usually in some kind of harvest mix blend.

@DaddyEvil Yeah, I think I have had that. I am a big caramel apple fan.

@snowy22315 We got some candy corn that was flavored like caramel apples last year. We ended up buying several bags of those. 
I don't remember coming across any that tasted like marshmallows... Pretty would have loved those.

It isn't so delicious. It just kind of tastes like corn syrup.

@snowy22315 It was quite a colorful mix. I think there were candy bats, too.

No, it is this stuff. Most of it if not all in the US is made by Brach's candy company.

@Traceyjayne You aren't missing much. The best part of it is the color.

I'll eat candy corn; but I like the harvest mix better -- chocolate, banana, pumpkins and other fall shapes and flavors.

Candy corn's hit or miss! Chocolate bottoms sounds better for me..

I like any small candy bar really. Little Snickers bars are a fave. What about you?
