You either love it or hate it. Which one are you?

I LOVE IT! I always have but sadly not having any this year. It's a sugar rush for sure.

On October 30th, the country celebrates an iconic treat on National Candy Corn Day. Whether you feel neutral about it, adore it fiercely, or passionately hate it, one thing is for sure: candy corn is one of the most nostalgic treats that sparks surprisingly strong opinions.

#NationalCandyCornDay

Candy maker George Renninger is credited with inventing candy corn while employed at the Wunderlee Candy Company in Philadelphia in the 1880s. This sweet treat represented the bright colors of corn kernels--yellow, orange and white. However, the candy was popularized and mass-produced starting in 1898 by the Goelitz Confectionery Company, which later became known as the Jelly Belly Candy Company. Jelly Belly proudly claims the longest history of continuously producing candy corn, using the same original recipe.
