There’s no way these are the most popular Halloween candy in every state

September 30, 2019 | jnettlebeck

We thrive on “new studies”. That’s how the world goes around in today’s day and age. However, this “new study” completed by Google is the most absurd thing we’ve seen yet. 

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups take home the top prize, finishing fist in 12 states. That’s fair. We can’t take umbrage with such peanut buttery goodness. What we do take issue with are the five states who lauded Milk Duds as their top candy. Milk Duds? In 2019? Get outta here with that nonsense. 

Airheads, Hot Tamales, and the elusive Mars Bar all unexpectedly took home honors around the country as well. 

Of course, this leaves us with Illinois and it’s top prize, which is somehow the Jolly Rancher. We’re not upset, we’re just disappointed. 

Let us know what you think the top candy in Illinois is by tweeting the KQX Morning Crew with the #Ahoy, because we know that there’s no way Jolly Rancher is the correct answer.
