I finally bought my Halloween candy! I always wait until the week of Halloween because there’s no way I can have all that candy in the house without eating it. Apparently, I’m not alone— a study found that the average person ends up buying Halloween candy several times because they can’t resist snacking early. Who can blame them, right?

Every year, there’s the candy corn debate. I happen to love candy corn, but it’s not necessarily the best choice to give out to trick-or-treaters. Not everyone loves it as much as I do.
So, what candies are considered the worst? According to Tasting Tables, here’s the list of candies that might have neighborhood kids skipping your house this Halloween if you’re handing them out:
– Circus Peanuts
– Candy Corn
– Nik-L-Nip
– Good & Plenty
– Raisins and Raisinets
– Smarties
– Necco Wafers
– Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans
– Cheap Milk Chocolate
I have to disagree with some of the picks. I **LOVE** Smarties—that’s actually the candy I want when I’m trick-or-treating! I’m also a fan of Raisinets. However, I totally agree that Circus Peanuts are just…gross!
When it comes to safe bets, you really can’t go wrong with M&Ms and Sour Patch Kids. Those are two of my favorites!
