Candy corn is a small, pyramid-shaped candy, typically divided into three sections of different colors, with a waxy texture and a flavor based on honey, sugar, strawberry, and vanilla.It is a staple candy of the fall season and Halloween in North America.

Candy corn's traditional colors of yellow, orange, and white represent the colors of the fall harvest, or of corn on the cob with the wide yellow end resembling a corn kernel.

Candy corn has a reputation for generating polarizing responses, with articles referring to it as "Halloween's most contentious sweet" which people either "love" or "hate".

Candy corn's traditional colors of yellow, orange, and white represent [...] corn on the cob with the wide yellow end resembling a corn kernel.

This is why it's called candy corn. Because, when stacked, it starts to look like corn on the cob.

It's supposed to look like feed corn =D

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

Feed corn tastes better.

Wait, wut? There's supposed to be different flavors? I just tasted sugar, sugar, and sugar (... and I love 'em).

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Maybe it's saying that it's a single flavor, which is a combination of honey+sugar+strawberry+vanilla?

I've never even seen candy corn, so I am just guessing wildly...

[–] swelter_spark@reddthat.com 4 points 1 week ago

The three sections have always tasted different to me.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I could see honey, sugar and vanilla.

There is no strawberry flavor what so ever that comes through at all.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I agree, but I haven't tried eating any while thinking, "do I taste any strawberry?"

[–] cryptiod137@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, there are supposed to be different flavors... And the same people make both the nice 3 flavor kinds, and the ones that are just colored corn syrup

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 week ago

Huh, for some reason I had assumed candy corn was that popcorn spayed with that colourful sweet crap. Now I need to seek out some of this so I can have a new hatred.
