Not all Halloween candy is created equal. Whether you're into sour gummies or dark chocolates, playing favorites is inevitable when you're trick or treating. In fact, which candy reigns supreme has become such a hot topic around Influenster HQ that we decided to take our question national and find out which candy is king, state by state.
We surveyed over 40,000 Influensters to find out which Halloween candies hold a special place in ALL of our hearts. Check out our infographic below that displays America's favorite Halloween candy for 2016 state by state. Curious as to what stands out? We found it interesting that...
+ The candy that pulled the highest total number of votes turned out to be Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. It was one of only three candies (the other two were Kit Kat and Butterfinger) to be voted top treats by every single state in the U.S.
+ The candy of choice in the most number of states this year turned out to be the polarizing Halloween staple— Candy corn.
+ Candy corn proved to be the top pick for Oregon, Wyoming, Tennessee, Texas, and South Carolina.
