The Worst Halloween Candy to Find in Your Bag

• Candy Corn – It’s amazing how long this product has been around. It’s synonymous with Halloween, yet I personally don’t know anyone who likes it.
• Necco Wafers – Thin discs with a chalky taste that you forget how bad they are until you put them into your mouth. I finally wised up after a few times.
• Butterscotch Candy – I never liked butterscotch. I tried to trade them with the other kids, but none of them would comply.
• Black Licorice – The taste would stay with me long after the candy was gone. The red licorice was not too bad, but I stayed far away from the black.
• Dark Chocolate – I love chocolate but the dark version is too bitter for me. Fortunately I was able to deal these away for other treats.
• Dots – Rubbery and almost tasteless, these would always stick to my teeth in annoying fashion.  The work it took to get them unstuck was never worth the effort.
• Good N Plenty – I was fooled by the candy coating on the outside of this capsule shaped candy. The licorice center was a huge disappointment for me.
• Red Hots – I still do not like Red Hots even after all these years.  Any candy with a cinnamon flavor is banished from my home. Hot and spicy is a flavor for food not candy.

My one goal at Halloween was to come home with none of the above candy in my bag. I obtained plenty of my favorites, but the dreaded enemy candy would always find its way into my bag.
