Every time Halloween rolls around I hear everyone talk about Candy Corn like it's creation was mans greatest sin, yet I don't get why, I don't think it's terrible but it's not the best, I don't much care for it or candy as a whole anymore.

Am I the only one who just thinks is a mediocre candy?

Because it's quite possibly the worst candy ever.

I like the flavored ones, like candy apple. Original ones are ok but not the worst. Anything that tastes like butterscotch is the worst

Mellocreme pumpkins? I sort of like them for a few bites, but no way on a whole bag.

They're OK in small doses. Too sickly sweet generally to eat more than a handful at a time.

Candy corn is made up of just three ingredients: powdered sugar, corn syrup, and shortening.

You put all three in a food processor, blitz it, and you're left with a dough like fondant that you can dye and sculpt into any shape that you want. I've made some cake decorations with the stuff, though I prefer marzipan.

never had them, but wondering what are they actually like? I assumed they were crunchy hard candies from their appearance, but maybe they're like those marshmallow candies like marshmallow bananas? or what other candy are they similar to?

They're a solid, but they're not crunchy. They get kind of mushy like a chocolate, minus the chocolate. Basically just lumps of sugar.

I think the joke is that you listed all the things you love, neglected to include your wife, and now this bloke is making fun of your wife for marrying someone who doesn't even love her.

Marzipan is also delicious.

Circus peanuts are an acquired taste. The first few times I've had them (well, as an adult), they were kinda gross but they grew on me. Peeps and similar marshmallow treats I could never get into.

I should mention that I was never big into rock candy for whatever reason, although I liked cotton candy which is also pretty much just flavored sugar.

Jokes on him since she knows my love of life is a 1:1 ratio to my love for her.

Believe me, there's candy out there that's way WAY worse. Like Dubbel Zoute, literally "double salt" licorice.

It's been yeeeeears since I ever had candy corn, but personally I liked the stuff.

That being said, palates are known to change significantly between childhood and adulthood so it's certainly possible that I would find the stuff vile now.

I like it as an occasional treat, but it's nothing especially good or bad. The same goes for pumpkin spice.
