The Definitive Ranking Of The 13 Best Halloween Candies

Halloween is approaching! Though finding the right costume and decorations is stressful, just remember there is always sugar and delicious treats in sight!

13. Caramel Apples

Caramel Apples are a great and filling treat that will give you the full taste of Halloween and fall through the sweet flavor of the caramel, and since it's technically a fruit, you can feel healthy as you are having one of your recommended servings for the day!

12. Candy Corn

Even though Candy Corn is essentially a piece of sugar dyed three different colors with food coloring, but it isn't Halloween without them.


11. Jolly Rancher

A dentists absolute worst nightmare, Jolly Ranchers, are addicting as you constantly play with them in your mouth awaiting that sudden burst of flavor. Be really be careful with these deceptively small and safe candies, they are known to cause cavities and serve as a choking hazard.


10. Sour Patch

The only sour candy I have included on here, as they're fun to pull and play around with while you absorb the sugar coat and sour flavor.

9. Fun Dip

Don't pretend that you didn't eat these bags of sugar by the pound when you were younger and then stick your tongue out at the mirror to view its changing color from the candy. Fun Dip is a childhood classic that is sure to provide with you a strong sense of nostalgia along with a severe sugar headache.

8. Twix

Though likely to get stuck in your teeth, Twix bars are incredible on Halloween as they give you that much-desired sugar rush along with an unbeatable caramel and chocolate taste.

7. M&Ms

May be considered an unoriginal choice but how can you not grab those mini bags of M&M's especially since there are so many different flavor options like peanut, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, crunchy and now even birthday cake(?)

6. Kit Kat

But seriously, give me a break with a Kit Kat Bar. This candy is similar to Krackel Bars in that the crunchiness of the cookie wafer combined with the milk chocolate coating makes this candy completely irresistible.

5. Hershey Kisses

An American Classic, there's no denying that Hersey Kisses are almost impossible to resist. In addition to being a great Halloween Candy, Hershey Kisses can also be a sweet treat for a close friend or a loved one.

4. Starburst

Starburst are also candies that are easy to transport. However, the color Starburst you get seriously, really does matter. Don't pretend you've never been disappointed to find a majority of orange Starburst in the pack you had just bought. (We all secretly know that pink is the best flavor)

3. Smarties

These colorful mini candies have not only been around forever but like Starbursts they're also fun and easy to transport! Additionally, smarties are sometimes better than chocolate candies as they can last for several days after Halloween without carrying the risk of melting or being crushed in your backpack so easily.

2. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Chocolate + Peanut Butter,enough said.

1. Krackel Bars

I may be biased here as a true chocolate-lover, but Krackel Bars are by far the best Halloween Candy. How can you resist the perfect combination of both crunch and chocolate?! These little candies with the red wrapper are sure to leave any trick-or-treater satisfied.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
