Heheh...

The worst thing about Halloween is, of course, candy corn. It's unbelievable to me. Candy corn is the only candy in the history of America that's never been advertised. And there's a reason. All of the candy corn that was ever made was made in 1911. And so, since nobody eats that stuff, every year there's a ton of it left over. And the candy corn company sends the guys to the villages and they collect out of the dumpsters all the candy corn we've thrown away. They wash it!! They wash it!

I'll never forget the first time my mother gave me candy corn. She said, "Here - Lewis, this is candy corn. It's corn that tastes like candy". [high pitched sound] This tastes like crap! And every year since then, Halloween has returned and I, like an Alzhiemer's patient, find myself in the room, and the room has a big table in it, and on the table is a bowl of candy corn. And I look at it as if I've never seen it before. "Candy corn", I think. "Corn that tastes like candy. I can't wait". Son of a bitch!!

Candy Corn is evil!!!

So is frightmaster and yet I am oh so LOVED. I love candy corn too. Maybe it feeds the evilness. I guess something has to fill the hole where my conscience used to be.

Personally, I rather enjoy Candy corn. Just not in extremly large quantities in one sitting. Acctually I'm like that with most candy... I need healthy food. But anyway, each person has his or her own opinion... more candy corn for me and frightmaster, i guess.

Mmmm...brown candy corn - chocolate flavored, in extremely large quantities in one sitting. Mmmm.

mmmm chocolate candy corn. I had to ration them out so they'd last...LOL I guess that wasn't necessary since they don't go bad.

So which would you pick - a bowl full of fresh, wonderful candy corn or a king size Snickers?

Candy corn or snickers??????? Thats a tough call.
I personal like twix you cant beat a 2 for 1 with candy bars! I guess kit kats would work also but they arent as long or as thick as a regular candy bar but they are a 4 for 1 .
A side note mounds and almond joys don't count as a 2 for 1 because they are so small but oh so good.
Well NOW I gotta run to the store and grab some snickers,almond joys, kit kats, twix, and if they have it.....CANDY CORN!!!!!

hmmm... As much as I love Candy Corn, i would have to go with Snickers there... mmm chocolate.

CANDY CORN all the way. For all those who chose the Snickers or inserted thier own, I will take your candy corns too. And people wonder why I do not sleep. I am on a candy corn high.
