Candy Corn is Changing...

If you are like me, you love candy corn. It's not a seasonal treat, but unless there is a distant Halloween feeling to a day, I like to eat it strictly around Halloween time. I have always been just a standard guy, but it seems that life is trying to force new candy corn treats down my throat...literally.
I love candy corn...I love popcorn. This can't go wrong right? Well, I must say...I think it did. The box above is an older design, this is what it looks like today.
It's lovely, it's purple, it's covered with bats and it's $4 for 20 bags of popcorn. Can't be that. So naturally, I opened it up and got to business.

Lovely. I get strong Halloween III: Season of the Witch vibes off the bag itself. This just keeps getting better and better.
Even the instructions are in orange and black. You really thought of everything ACT II.
Isn't that beautiful? Not to mention it made my kitchen smell like sweets and marshmellows!
With anticipation, I put my hand inside that bag that it was full of a million dollars, but sadly, it wasn't. I didn't like it. I really didn't like it. I became sad...but since one of my friends really likes it, I am going to be forced to try this again...I hope for better results. But this wasn't the only product I had to try...

I love candy corn, I love white chocolate and I love M&M's! How could this not be amazing. So I poured some into shot glasses and it became time for the tasting of what I hoped would be the Halloween Treat to end all Halloween treats.

The colors, the magic...it's more than I can bare! So I popped a few of these bad boys and with blissful ignorance hoped for the best...again...I was wrong. When you tell me you are going to be white chocolate flavored, I don't expect strawberries. Honestly...two different flavors (Who have a history of being paired together however...like in Eerie Scream.) Did white chocolate miss strawberry and kept her perfume? I'm not sure nor am I qualified to supply you an answer for that one. But what I can tell you is that I hated these M&M's. Which again...makes me so sad. These had such hope and promise...they could have been a contender...if they didn't suck.
