Best Halloween Candy Dethroned! Top 3 Halloween Candies in New York State
Halloween is fun for dressing up and trick or treating but the real draw is the candy. But the candy you may think is the best, may not be high on this list. Wait until you hear what candies were the top three in New York State.
Undoubtedly, we have all thought that at one time or another. But what is the good candy? Well, it depends on who you ask. A survey lists the most popular candy nationwide. Here is a list according to candystore.com.
M&M’s Takes the #1 Spot, Beating Out Reese’s Cups
In a surprising turn, M&M’s has officially knocked Reese’s Cups off the top spot as the most popular Halloween candy.

Top 3 Halloween Candies In New York State
Most of us agree that the top two on this list are valid, however, I would have never expected hot tamales and candy corn to be in the top ten. Candy corn moved up one slot to #7. If you think this list isn't quite accurate to what you believe to be the best candy, wait until you hear the top three candies in New York State!
Here is the, in my opinion, very flawed list of the top three most popular candies in New York State. Do you agree with them?

#2 - Hot Tamales: This one left me scratching my head. I only remember eating these as a kid. I didn't think they were still popular.
#1 - Sour Patch Kids: To me, these are an acquired taste. But apparently, 172,000 New Yorkers said that this is their favorite Halloween candy.
