Top 10 Worst Halloween Candies
It’s Halloween which means it’s trick or treating time. You’ll probably get some good stuff, but we’re not talking about that today. We’re looking at the other end of the spectrum; the worst things to get in your Halloween bag. Disclaimer this is only talking about CANDY. So pretzels, fruit, or any other non candy item is excluded from this list.
Have you ever wondered what candle wax tastes like? Well, Candy Corn is probably as close as you can get. I know this is a divisive candy, but to me, it's not worthy of the candy label. There are two types of people in this world: those who like Candy Corn and those who cannot understand how people like it. I'm part of the latter group.
Can someone please bring Candy Corn to the UK? I'm not a little kid, so I know that sounds immature. But I'm just curious to know what it tastes like and why so many Americans hate it.
Those candy corns I've tried before have a very weird texture in my mouth, which I don't like, by the way.

I don't know what it is about Tootsie Rolls, but the flavor is so weird I cannot stand it. I'm normally all for chocolate candies, but not these ones. The bigger ones are the worst. These are one of those cheap candies that you get a lot of, and for me, they dwell at the bottom of the bag because who's really going to eat these first? I only eat them when I've already eaten the good stuff and I'm just that desperate.
I love Candy Corn (they have a sweet, honeyesque taste) and Candy Apples (you shouldn't accept Candy Apples from strangers, but as an actual treat, they are very good), but Tootsie Rolls are as bland as they come.
Why would someone put Christmas candy in kids' Halloween bags?
Never got one on Halloween but heard stories.
Candy canes are for Christmas!

I hate licorice with a passion. I don't know how people actively enjoy these things. I get rid of them the first chance I get. Easily one of the more overrated candies in the Halloween world.
Literally tastes like flavored rope.
This is an abomination from hell.

Another easy and lazy candy to pass out. If you wanted to taste chalk, this is almost as close as you can get. Also, these things look like pills or drugs of some kind. I actually used to like these as a kid, but in retrospect, these were terrible, and I don't know how or why I liked them so much.
Ugh. You might as well be eating chalk. I hate Smarties.
The Newcomers

Ah, yeah, those suckers you see at your local bank or barber shop or something.
It's basically the kid version of a breath mint if you think about it. These do not belong in the Halloween game. It's such a lazy way to cut corners. There's nothing inherently wrong with them. It's just that I expect better.

Who in their right mind picks these when given a choice?
I mean, it's literally just a cough drop-sized piece of caramel surrounded by chocolate. I'd much rather have one of those candy apple pops with caramel than this.

These things are so unappealing that I'd honestly immediately hold a grudge against any sadistic monster who hands these out. They're so damn chalky. If you defend these, you are either from the 1850s or you like licking chalkboards for fun. Get these things far away from me and permanently ban them.
Might as well eat your colored chalk!

Overall, meh. I get these every Halloween, and they always make it to the scraps. I only eat them after all the good candy is gone.

Why are these only a Halloween candy? I've never seen them anywhere else. Maybe at a gas station convenience store, but who buys these out of all the available options? Who in their right mind hands these out? They're literally the evil twin of Mike and Ike's. Honestly, they don't even deserve to be recognized as candy.


This may be a hot take, but I'm sorry, it has to be said: these things are overrated. Maybe someone should explain the appeal of them to me because I cannot, for the life of me, figure it out. There are so many better options to go for in the Halloween bag. I'd rather not eat bits of gravel because that's what they taste like.
Chocolate Easter eggs.
Chocolate Easter.
Easter. SAVE THESE EGGS FOR Easter.
