A First Time For Everything

Something I realized this Halloween is that there hasn’t been a lot of innovation in the candy industry since I was a kid.? The Things’ bags are filled with all the old familiar favorites – Snickers, KitKats, Butterfingers.

I also realized that to a three year old, there is nothing familiar about candy.? It’s all so new and cool.? Especially candy corn.

On Halloween, Thing 2 tried candy corn for the very first time.? He declared, “I love candy corn!”, even before eating it.? I guess he just loved the concept of a candy version of a vegetable.? After trying it, he also said “It’s like a mountain” and compared the taste to chicken nuggets.

Luckily, the camera was rolling to capture the moment.

  1. And this one? I’ve never heard Thing 1 speak so much at one time before. Is that candy-fueled or is that just him when Aunt Cream cheese isn’t visiting? So great.

    Also … I LOVE candy corns. But I disagree. In my limited experience, they taste nothing like chicken nuggets.
