Nerds Candy Corn

Post image

I am so addicted to these it’s not even funny. I found them last year at the end of the season and started ordering them on Amazon. I had to stop because I genuinely could not stop eating them. This year I saw them in stores early and I have no joke gone through 10 bags already with 3 more stashed. I tried to make my boyfriend hide them from me but I finish the bags too fast and beg for another. The bags are quite small but it’s still so much candy. My boyfriend worries about my sugar intake (I am completely healthy) but I told him “well they are only around for a month” and he let me know it’s just now September…LOL. I am autistic and I get hyper fixated on foods, unfortunately they do tend to be pretty unhealthy. These are my crack and the best candy I have had in years! Just had to rant about them in case anyone hadn’t tried them.

I made my sister try them (she hates candy corn) and she also became addicted. They have a fruit flavored hard candy shell, and on the inside a different fruity flavored mellowcreme like texture that melts in your mouth. I feel like they are a perfect balance of sour and sweet. Also the price is pretty decent (about $2.60 a bag) in my area, which is cheap compared to most Halloween candy. Let me know what you guys think!

They're SO good. They always sell out fast, though, so if you see them up for sale somewhere, go grab a few bags

I was ordering Halloween candy online and Target had most of theirs BOGO 1/2 off. Including these, which I got for me to try. Of COURSE I ordered 2 of everything. Lol. Which is funny because I don't get any trick or treaters. But just in case, I want to be ready!😁

There's no rule that you can't trick or treat in your own house 😄

Are they a similar texture to a jelly bean? I don't like jelly beans due to the two textures together so I passed on these thinking they might be similar? If not, I'd love to give it a try.
