Candy Preferences

There are an unbelievable amount of choices out there when it comes to candy. I had Zack sit down yesterday and write out as many types of candy that he could think of. In no time at all, he had a list of more than 50 brands, types, and flavors. With so many options, sometimes it’s difficult to know what is your absolute favorite. In order to see if we can come to a logical choice, there are a number of questions below for you to share what you like best. At the very end is the ultimate question…What is your #1, all-time, would choose over all others, favorite candy?
