Why the hell does everyone hate candy corn? it's considered an iconic part of the halloween season yet anyone I've ever asked says they can't stand it.

Candy corn is based and delicious

Those people are morons. Candy corn is awesome.

>> No.13144523

I loved it so much that I ate it to the point of getting sick multiple times.

But it is kinda weird. Waxy, plasticky, a bit salty even. It's like eating a sugary candle or something. I don't wanna actually know what's in those things.

>> No.13144530

I always eat the separate colors one at a time. Love it. The different layers have different consistencies and flavors. Each kernel is really 3 treats in one. Love it!

Being an icon doesn't mean it's good. Peep's are shit on Easter, fruitcake is fucking terrible at Christmas, and if I get offered a ladle of great aunt Frieda's gloppy green bean casserole at Thanksgiving I'm gonna slap the purple out of her hair.

Somehow I suspect you've never actually had green bean casserole.

Candy corn is the ultimate pleb filter. The pumpkins are pretty good too.
Chocolate candy corn is kind of shit though.

Wow. This woman has not just got zero taste, she is very unpleasant about it. Imagine not craving boozy, delicious fruitcake, or savory, ribsticking green bean casserole. Do you think she has the right number of chromosomes? I suspect not.

Flavor's pretty much the same but the texture/consistency varies by level. As noted above, I like nibbling each level off and enjoying them separately.

It's halfway between marshmallow and hard candy and is vanilla flavored. Hating it is just a meme.

i used to love it but one time i ate some and incidentally also contracted norovirus and now i can't shake the association even though my rational brain knows there was no causal relationship between the two

I do a mail-based cultural exchange with countries I visit for work (and with people I met through work obv) and Sweden, Estonia, and Lithuania all ask for candy corn year round. Right after Old Bay. Denmark wants Copenhagen, but then they want candy corn. Go figure.

Yeah, weirdly enough Copenhagen is always in Swedish packages as well. You'd think they'd enjoy their snus, but Cope is very strong, that might be it.

Nah, my job just happened to take me to a few places where I made some friends. Sending random stuff for random people to enjoy is just something I do for shits and giggles.
