Gentlemen,
With the passing of labor day it is officially time to start thinking about Halloween.
This is the designated Thunderdome of a thread to decide which halloween candy is best.
>What's your favorite Halloween candy and why?
>Why is someone else's candy choice worthy of disrespectful ridicule?
This is what we're here to discuss.
My favorite is pic related for the following reasons:
>chocolatey goodness
>good texture
>only really visible as a halloween candy, which I feel gives it bonus points in a Halloween candy contest
And for those of you who want to play on hard mode:
>defend candy corn
Aaaaaaand.... Go.

i miss the days when people would give out some really esoteric candy brands that you've never heard of. now its all the same.
when i was old enough to trick or treat like 15 years ago id always come home with such random shit.

It was never really big until my last few halloweens, but Take 5 is objectively the best candy on the market currently. 100 grand got noticeably worse a few years ago and hasn't been the same since

I like candy corn. My favorite candy as a kid was lemonheads or gobstoppers but I am now a candy corn enjoyer.
This year I plan to make and give out candy apples.

i usually hand out these (2 per kid), because i know that it's something different from the normal halloween candy they'll get around the neighborhood. and if i have leftovers, it's something i will want to eat.
