Do You Like Candy Corns?

[Mr. DS]

Much like the Peeps thread, I find Candy Corns hit or miss.  Though self admitingly I'm in the middle bracket.  I usually enjoy them this time of year but won't partake in them post Halloween.  I enjoy them when they are in pumpkin form more I'm finding.

[Leah]

they're good every once in a while.

I like candy corn, but don't give it much thought after Halloween.

[Jack]

I don't actually think they should be used for landfill, but they are WAY too sweet for me.

I enjoy them but don't like the pumpkin ones as much 

[SkullBat308]

  I have never had them, how would you describe the taste? Do they actually taste like corn, but sweet?

[Newt]

Love 'em!  One of my favourites.  I even like them just the teensiest bit stale on the outside.  YUMMY!

[3mnkids]

Im not a fan of these. They have a weird after taste that I find.. distasteful   

[retrorussell]

I never liked those or peeps.  Something about the flavor.. yech.  For Halloween, my faves were candy bars, caramel popcorn, and caramel apples (never got a razor blade in mine).

No, they've pretty much got a pure sugar/marshmallow taste, but with a sort of chewy/waxy texture.  They're not too bad if you eat them in small quantities but they're the kind of treat that will make you feel really nauseated if you pig out on them.

No offense to anyone that likes them, but Candy Corn is the type of candy that if I got it while trick or treating, I would look at said person that gave it to me and exclaim, "I'm better off getting NOTHING.  The hell is wrong with you, dispensing Candy Corn?"

Oh jeez, my wife would love this thread....don't even think about standing inher way when there's candy corns OR masrshmallow peeps around.  You'd stand a better chance of surviving a charge by a water buffalo.

In a nod to the marshmallow peeps thread, my wife likes to take them and melt them in her coffee or her cocoa. I have recommended Happy Acres to her several times..

[The Burgomaster]

I'd rather eat the corns off my feet.

The only candy worse than Kandy Korn is that absolutely disgusting stuff that comes in orange and black wrappers around Halloween.  What the hell is that stuff, anyway?  It's not even identifiable.

The best Candy Corn is the kind made with honey.
