Survey Shows Most Popular Halloween Candy in the U.S.

Halloween gives us an excuse to stock up on our favorite candy, but which has been the most popular? Well, that depends on the state.

According to a survey conducted by grocery delivery company Instacart, Red Vines seem to be the top choice in more western states, while the remainder of the country has more variety. In fact, Red Vines are the top choice for California!

Overall, Peanut and Original M&Ms were the top choice in 2020, followed by Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Hershey’s Milk Chocolate, Twizzlers, Snickers, Kit Kat, Candy Corn, Sour Patch Kids, and Haribo  Gold Bears.

Data also found that half of those surveyed think that Halloween candy is more important than actually dressing in costumes! 40% surveyed are like me: buying candy after Halloween because it’s on sale!

Instacart reviewed its purchase data from October 2020 and found the most popular candy in each state. Red Vines were the top candy of choice in California. https://t.co/eHQaftgFiT
