Skittles candies
Taste the rainbow! Skittles are sort of like an M&M alternative with no chocolate in them. These flavored little candies are particularly favored by trick or treaters in California, Hawaii, New Jersey, and South Carolina.

Candy corn
You'd be hard-pressed to find a top five Halloween candy list that doesn't mention this classic. Some love them, others hate them. They've got the classic Halloween color with orange, yellow, and white stripes. There's also over 1.5 million pounds of Candy corn sold for the Oct. 31 holiday with Michigan, Nevada, and Idaho the three states that seem to buy the most.
Is candy corn delicious or Satan's earwax? https://t.co/PrtiUQtyBE pic.twitter.com/0Q7VBiO52J
