THE MOST HATED HOLIDAY CANDIES

REINDEER CORN, CHRISTMAS NOUGAT, AND CHERRY CORDIALS

The site CandyStore.com released its annual list of the most hated holiday candies.  And “reindeer corn” is #1 again.  It’s just regular candy corn with a festive spin.  The only difference is it’s red-green-and-white instead of orange-yellow-and-white.

Here are the rest of the 10 most despised holiday candies. . .

2.  Christmas nougat.  It’s chewy and minty and popular with a VERY select number of people.

3.  Cherry cordials.  They always make the Top 5.  They were #1 two years ago.

4.  Non-peppermint candy canes.  Peppermint ones avoided the Top 10 this year.

5.  Holiday Peeps.  Whether they’re shaped like snowmen or Christmas trees, not a lot of people like them.

6.  Ribbon candy.  Hard candy shaped like a ribbon.  If you’ve never tried it, you’re not missing much.

7.  Old-fashioned hard candy mix.  Found exclusively at your grandma’s house in 1987.

8.  Lifesavers Story Books.  Each one has a selection of different types of Lifesavers.  They’re called “Story Books” because the package opens like a book.

9.  Chocolate oranges.  If you enjoy mixing the flavours of chocolate and citrus, they’re all yours.

10.  Peppermint Bark.  A dubious poll recently claimed it’s America’s FAVOURITE holiday treat.  It was placed ahead of gingerbread cookies and chocolate Santas, so the poll was NOT scientific.
