Whether you still dress up for Halloween or not, something I’m sure we can all remember is trick-or-treating. The excitement of wearing our Halloween costume, getting together with friends, and going door-to-door and receiving candy from strangers could only be topped by one thing – getting to eat a truly appalling amount of candy all in one night.
However, a night could go from great to horrible depending on the type of candy you got. Here is a definitive list of the top 10 worst Halloween candies.
10. Wax Bottles
If the reward for chewing off the top of the wax is artificially flavored juice, I don’t want it.
9. Runts
Ah yes, rotten, overripe fruit. My favorite taste in the entire world.
8. Pretzels
These are not candy. I walked all the way to your house. I expect candy.
7. Gummy body parts of any kind
I get it, you’re trying to be creepy because its Halloween, but gummy body parts are not creepy, nor are they any good.
6. Circus Peanuts
No one has ever been able to convince me that these are not just Styrofoam covered in orange paint, and I don’t think anyone ever will.
5. Raisinets
If you plan on giving out Raisinets for Halloween, stop. Take a good look at your life, figure out who hurt you, and enact revenge on them instead of the poor, unsuspecting children coming to your house for Halloween.
4. Bit-O-Honey
I’m not even sure I accurately remember what these taste like, because all of my memories involving this candy consist of me working my jaw muscles for 20 minutes and then praying to all of the Gods that my cavity didn’t fall out.
3. Smarties
These taste like chalk. There is no getting around the fact that these taste like chalk.
2. Good and Plenty
Why do these exist? Why was I subjected to them every Halloween? Why do people still think these are acceptable to give out as candy?
1. Candy Corn
I literally do not understand how people enjoy candy corn. I know there are people out there in the world who eat it because they think it’s good, and my question to you is…how?
