Yesterday, 9-14-2023, Dollar General already had Halloween AND Christmas candy & merchandise for sale. I also saw a house lit up with Halloween decorations as well. Maybe next week they'll have Valentines for sale. 😉
I'm surprised the quiz didn't mention the old standard popcorn balls or candy corn's weird cousin the lil cream filled sugar waxy pumpkins. 🎃 Please don't put any of those in my bag when I trick-or-treat at your house! 😉🎃😄

What irritates me is the way the ads suddenly open up, just as one's about to click on an answer choice. ENOUGH WITH THE ADS ALREADY!!!
BTW, I got 10 out of 15 correct. Not bad, don't you think?

I don't know WHY so many people dislike candy corn ??
( MaryJane's ARE nasty ! )
( MaryJane's ARE nasty ! )
I thought Mary Jane because it',s plain nasty as worst candy.
9/15, I dressed up as Spiderman in the sixties. I thought Snickers was the most popular candy bar. And I like Candy Corn. Interesting quiz.
nitpick: both the source and the quiz spelled Spider-Man (there *is* a hyphen) wrong.
I got 9 out of 15. I didn't know we spent 10 BILLION dollars on Halloween. That's crazy!
I didn't do too badly, I missed 3 🎃🍬 👻

7 out of 15. 🙄
I like the Smarties. 😯

I could explain it away, but...
I'm not gonna do it - just wouldn't be prudent.

Not quite as scary the movies you are getting soon 🎃😲😄

The least favorite candy is Necco Wafers.
This comment has been removed.
Not in these parts. I actually liked Necco Wafers (and just about all the products that Necco made: Sweethearts/Conversation Hearts, Skybar, Candy Buttons, Mary Janes, Clark Bar, and my favorite Canada Mints).
The most hated had to be either candy corn, circus peanuts, or wax lips.

My God I forgot about the wax lips yuck.
I fully agree! 😝
You'll notice I made no mention of Good N Plenty, which also appears in a lot of the lists you'll find if you Google "least popular halloween candies". I happen to love licorice but I know it's one a lot of people hate.
I never liked Good N Plenty but I did like Good N Fruity a predecessor to Mike N Ike.
8/15. I'm as ambivalent about my score as I am about the so-called holiday.
6/15….Time to take another quiz 🤪
9/15 Meh!
