Ahead of the big day tomorrow, the spookiest day of the entire spooky season, we grilled the team on their favorite candy. But not just any candy, their favorite candy to nab while trick-or-treating on Halloween. It’s an important distinction because while some candy is good throughout the rest of the year, it doesn’t hit the mark on Halloween.
October 31st is the Super Bowl of candy eating, it’s the Catalina Wine Mixer. For example, if you’re just perusing the aisles of CVS for some candy to sneak into the movie theater with you on, say, March 19th or August 2nd, yeah sure, grab those Mentos or those Peach Rings, or even some Lifesavers. But if you knocked on a door on Halloween and said Trick-or-Treat and got any of those tossed into your bag, that house would be vandalized with the quickness.
The results of our poll were mixed, like any Trick-or-Treat bag.
