The Best And Worst Halloween Candy, Ranked

No matter your age, you will always equate Halloween with candy, and you shouldn't feel guilty about it. This is a day dedicated to stuffing your face with as much candy as possible. Let's be honest, the best part about Halloween is the candy. Chocolate, gummies, hard candy...go ahead, eat it all. Just try to avoid a stomachache.

I asked family and friends what they thought the best and worst Halloween candy was and here are the results. Everyone is bound to have their favorite. So, sorry if your favorite is last...but I mean c'mon, who likes candy corn?

11. Candy Corn

When I asked my friends and family what the worst Halloween candy they ever ate was, practically all of them said, "Candy corn." I was a bit shocked because I didn't think it was THAT awful. I guess I was wrong.

10. Black Licorice


Never tried it and never plan to. A candy that is the scariest color of the color wheel has the ability to scare anyone away. I'll stick to Twizzlers.

9. Peanut Butter Kisses

This is the candy you would always sigh about getting in your trick-or-treat bag. ANYTHING but these, please!

8. Bottle Caps

No need to try one ever again. You're better off setting them off to the side and hoping someone else eats them.

7. Nerds

Open box. Dump all the contents of the box into your mouth. Chew. Swallow. That is usually how the process of eating Nerds goes. You can try not to eat them all at once, but it's practically a sin.

6. Sour Patch Kids

This is the candy that adds variety in your bag. When you don't want chocolate or a hard candy, you reach for these sour then sweet suckers.

5. Starbursts


You can't ever just eat one Starburst. You have to AT LEAST have one of EVERY flavor.

4. Caramel Apple Pops

My personal favorite. Perfect combination of sweet caramel and green apple. However, the caramel is the best. Once it's all gone, your heart breaks a little.

3. Twix

Growing up, I remember my aunt always stealing these from my trick-or-treat bag, even though she had gone trick-or-treating herself. I guess they were so good she had to steal all of mine, too.

2. Snickers


Snickers' tagline is, "You're not you when you're hungry. Snickers satisfies," and well, can anyone disagree? The crunchiness, the caramel, the chocolate. Pure genius.

1. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

I would have never thought Reese's would be the winner, but I'm not going to deny that they're delicious.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
