"We expected some of the usual suspects like Nerds Clusters and Skittles, but I was definitely surprised to see Ghost Toast from Kit Kat break into the top ranks," said Dave Theodoropoulos, CMO of Candy Funhouse. "What also caught my attention was Candy Corn making the list—despite being one of the most polarizing candies out there. You either love it or you hate it!"
