Brach's Candy corn is the kind made with honey. Around here it's the most popular brand and all we ever buy. We get it at Walmart and everywhere else lol. Not sure if Brach's is a regional brand or not. Thanks so much, I looked up Brach's and it IS made with honey, but also corn syrup. Rats, I was really hopeful! But thank you for the suggestion. Oh well, I'll just live vicariously through all of you! Oh didn't realize you were looking for a corn syrup free kind. I just figure it's candy corn there's going to be corn in there some how lol. We're not a corn syrup free household at all. (I actually buy the stuff for baking lol)

Candy corn is my weakness, and it only comes into our house if it's the kids' trick-or-treat bags, in the small little bags. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to stay out of it. I'm a nibbler, big end to small.

In sequence. I just wish they had different flavors so it made a difference.

It makes my generally healthy teeth ache when I eat it so I normally don't eat it. As I child I ate it in sections though.

I don't eat it at all. Too sweet. If I'm going to use up calories like that then I want chocolate. (and no, chocolate isn't too sweet -- after all, it's chocolate! )

I have always wanted to know: please help a foreigner out - is this product little kernels of corn covered in the coloured sugar (corn syrup?) or is it all sugar just shaped to look like it came from an ear of corn?

Sometimes I just eat a few but I rarely ever buy it. I do like it as a decoration item though. Not the real stuff but candy corn themed stuff.

All at once. Though I've never been fond of it and only eat one or two pieces rarely.

Thank you anniebeth24 . I first saw the stuff (and wondered) in the good old days of scrapbook magazines- hallowe'en layouts and so forth.

Start at the white tip and move down each layer always.

I didn't know there were different types of candy corn. My DS got me some when he was in the US a couple of weeks ago. It is Brachs classic. Is that the usual one?

I only eat it when mixed with peanuts and it tastes like a Pay Day. Then I eat it by the handful! Dh will come and pick the Candy Corn out and leave the peanuts.

I typically bite the white tip off and then eat the rest. Once in awhile I'll put a whole piece in my mouth but usually it's the way I first described. I hadn't actually thought about the way I eat candy corn before now but I'm positive that's what I do. I eat candy bars weird too. For example a Reese's cup. I nibble the little jagged edge off. Then I eat the thick chocolate border around the very edge leaving a thin layer of chocolate on the top and bottom of the peanut butter. Then I take small bites of that layer until it's gone. I SAVOR that little sucker bite by bite! Same thing with Snickers, 3 Musketeers, Milky Way, etc. If I eat a Pay Day I pick off all the peanuts and eat the gooey part all by itself! FYI: I don't eat candy bars very often and when I do eat them all dissected like that, it's in the privacy of my home or my car. I don't do that and gross everyone out. Well, except my family. They live with me so they have to suck it up and deal.

No eating it at all for me. They taste like I suspect candles would taste if I tried them, but with added sugar.

I don't eat it, it's like eating pure sugar, only worse . But it's great for decorating with!

I just eat them whole and it must be Brach's.

In stages, each color separate and the candy corn MUST be Brach's or it isn't allowed anywhere near my mouth!

One time when I was a kid I bit off the white tip and told my mom that I lost a tooth. She totally fell for it, I died laughing! So yes, I eat it in sequence but I will have to say that I haven't had any candy corn in years!!!

My candy education is sorely lacking. I've never tried candy corn. Peeps either.

With candy corn I do it both ways about equally. With the pumpkins I start at the stem and nibble about 1/4 of the way down and then just pop the rest in my mouth. We only buy coastal bay from dollar tree or sunrise brand due to my daughter's nut allergies. Only available at halloween so I go all out this time of year.
