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.

Wow they got a lot of candy. I, by the way, agree with Keegan. Candy corn is too chewy.

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.
