Yesterday, a new survey from Influenster.com came out revealing the favorite candy for each state based on a poll of over 40,000 people.
While Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups received the most votes nationwide, candy corn won the highest number of states with five (Texas, Oregon, Wyoming, Tennessee, South Carolina).
The result was surprising as candy corn has a very mixed reputation among candy enthusiasts.
Hashtag Gif decided to solve the question of whether candy corn is actually any good by going the scientific route of gathering random tweets about it.
@MGolicJR57 It's def a herd mentality. Candy corn is good people are just scared. We're here as a safe haven for those folks.

America's insistence that candy corn is an enjoyable edible treat genuinely makes me concerned about this election. https://t.co/DEOYVWP8OY

Honestly, below is probably the most accurate take:
After eating this entire bag, I have concluded that candy corn is super gross and I need to go buy some more ASAP.
