About Halloween Candy
Halloween night has its own unmistakable soundtrack: the rustle of a pillowcase or plastic pumpkin bucket, the crinkle of wrappers under the porch light, the small negotiations that happen on the walk home. Candy corn has been a Halloween staple since the 1880s, and chocolate bars became trick-or-treat royalty when individually wrapped portions made sharing easy and safe. The haul, sorted on the living-room floor by type, color, and personal preference, is a ritual as beloved as the costumes themselves.
