Candy Corn- yes or no?

 

 

if you're on team candy corn and you like a little salty with your sweet, try mixing those tasty triangles 50/50 with dry roasted peanuts. Eat it like trail mix. You can use standard or lightly salted, to your taste. You're gonna thank me for this.

When I was a kid, I seem to remember that I liked it, and then at some point, it started to taste more and more waxy.  Not sure if that's real or not, but not for me.

Is it weird that I like candy corn, but somehow feel like I wish I was in the anti candy corn camp?

Gross stuff. I agree with Lewis Black. Tastes like oil.

It's better than that hard black stuff that is wrapped in the patterned orange paper.

If it is there, sitting out in a candy bowl, and there is NOTHING else, I may grab about 5-10 and they bring a small dopamine rush. But more than that, and more than probably 15 kernels in a year, and they're pretty gross.

I'll gladly eat 10 pieces, and then am quickly reminded that I hate this crap.

My wife loves it and I'm "meh", however; as mentioned above if you mix it with salted peanuts for some reason I'm all over it. I don't like peanuts either. 
 

Better than that is M&Ms in salted peanuts, nothing can hold me back...

I love sugar, but I can't do candy corn unless it's an emergency.

If I'm going to splurge on sugar, I don't want a random triangular block of just sugar.  I'll go for the Snickers, Almond Joy, or Reeses PB cup.  It's the same reason I don't usually eat cotton candy.

If I'm putting sugar in my body, I want it to taste like something other than just sugar.  I don't hate candy corn, but I can pretty much get the same experience by just putting a teaspoon of sugar in my mouth.
