Everyone’s been a part of the ongoing debate on the likability of the Halloween icon candy corn. The general consensus of the tricolored and triangular treat is unclear, with many different opinions rising for and against it. What many people fail to mention however, are the similar yet far improved sibling to candy corn: candy pumpkins. While the pumpkins have a similar flavor to candy corn, it’s more refined and easier to get down if your stance on candy corn is neutral. The candy pumpkins are way smoother, softer, and less sickeningly sweet. While more than a handful may be too much for some, candy pumpkins are a much more likable treat than candy corn, and they should be enjoyed by everyone during the Halloween season.
