Love Love Love it - it seems to represent the fall season at it's best. I like it because it only comes out once a year.

I like it but more as a decoration. My son says it's his 2nd favorite candy though.

I'll enjoy it once a year but don't think I could eat more than a handful or two per season.

I love both the candy corn and the candy pumpkins that are like the corn. But then I like a lot of unpopular candies like Necco wafers, black licorice and so on.

I always claim that I don't like it, but I will also always eat a piece if it's in front of me. Especially the pumpkins... something about the shape.

Yes, it's a staple of the fall season. I love them, but know how bad they are for me

Not a fan of the super sugary sweetness, but do like how they look, very classic Halloween image

I agree! It's a great decoration, but not too great to eat. It is WAY too sweet!

Yuck. No thanks. If I'm going to eat something sugary, I far prefer dark chocolate. Plus, chocolate comes with other benefits like inflammation-fighting properties and a potential endorphin boost ;)

Oo dark chocolate! If you are eating something sweet, you might as well get some sort of benefit from it!

I'm not a fan of either...but Indian corn is much better, bc of the chocolate in the middle!

Unlike chocolate bars that contain other ingredients and “clear quickly from the mouth,” there’s no way to “buffer the sugar” from candy corn, allowing the sugar to stay on the teeth longer. “It’s like putting a cavity-inducing injection into your teeth.

Sorry - just don't appreciate the way it tastes. But I still buy it every year and put it out around my house for those who do!

It's pure sugar. Pretty horrible. But if you have a bowl of it and nothing better is around then I might eat a couple pieces anyway.
