It's expected that $2.7 billion* (with a B) will be spent on trick-or-treat candy this year!

Candystore.com figured if you're spending that much, you might as well get it right. To help you choose the right candy for your area, they put some data together and made this map of the Most Popular Halloween Candy by state:

Hmmm.... do those candies look right to you?
Actually, it shows the top 3 most popular Halloween candies in each state. You might be surprised to find out that the top Halloween candies in your state are not what you thought they were. But NOW you know!
How did they figure it up, you ask?

They took 10 years of sales data (2007-2016), looking in particular at the months leading up to Halloween. Since they sell to all 50 states (plus Canada), they broke down their sales by state. Since they have relationships with major candy manufacturers and distributors, they also helped to contribute data, and verify that their data was on target! 

So, what candy do people in your area like?
 If you get the wrong thing, the consequences could be dire. Streaming TP from your tree limbs, anyone? Ok hopefully kids in your neighborhood wouldn’t do that. But the adults might :|
LOL
