Sweet Candy Corn

I love to see ever narrower and narrower examples of niche blogging. Here is a timely one: Sweet Candy Corn, a blog about nothing but the Halloween candy everyone either loves or hates. Remember, National Candy Corn Day is October 30th! Link -Thanks, Rob Williams!

    WHO doesn't like it??? It's quintessential seasonal Americana -- at least I think it is. Are these commonly available anywhere else? If not, and I was an American ex-pat somewhere, I'd need them flown in.

    I love candy corn! I can't keep it around, or all my teeth would fall out. So I buy it for my MIL (who really likes it) and eat it while at her house. A limiting factor, if you will.

    Ah, it's one of these regional things - I've never heard of it!

    Laxative mineral oil is the secret ingredient.

    Gee thanks. I've done such a careful job of avoiding them, trying to be all responsible in my pregnant state and stuff...and now they're calling to me again with their honey-sweet-scented siren song...while their plumper counterparts, the mellocreme pumpkins add rich bass notes...oh no, there I go, drooling all over myself like an addict...can't...resist...must...eat...

    Miss C: Tabitha's due December 21st. Christmas is going to be REALLY interesting this year... ;-)

    I've been having a massive craving for candy corn and mellocreme pumpkins. The pumpkins are essentially the same candy as the corn, but about three times as much candy per bite and a little less dry than corn. So they're even MORE worth enduring the horrible tooth decay and general havoc to your blood sugar!

    This is my first year teaching abroad in China and guess what they don't have here.....CANDY CORN! I'm going insane. It will be my first year with no candy corn on halloween. You can't imagine how disappointed I am.
