    I’m surprised people actually like candy corn

      I’d prefer it to licorice, which is on there in the form of Twizzlers and Red Vines.

        Red Twizzlers isn’t licorice. It’s just licorice like. The black is supposedly real licorice, but I’ve only seen it a couple times. And I never had a chance to try it.

          Wikipedia says you are right.

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twizzlers

          Because only the black Twizzlers contain extracts of the licorice plant, Twizzlers products are collectively referred to as licorice-type candy.

          It’s an acquired taste. I love it now, but I didn’t when I was a kid

      I like candy corn. I wouldn’t want to eat a bowlful of it, but a handful is fine.
