Is This The Most Hated Candy Of All Time?

Today is the national day for a candy that seems to be more hated than even licorice or Necco wafers.

Today is National Candy Corn Day, perfectly scheduled for the day before Halloween. Candy corn has been around for over a hundred years and yet for some reason, hate for the confection has been on the increase in the last few decades.

No matter how much people say they hate candy corn, it's still made and sold in huge amounts each year. Just last year, 35 million pounds or roughly 9 billion kernels were sold in the U.S. alone.

Watch the video above to see how candy corn is made and celebrate National Candy Corn Day by either eating some or giving it away to someone who will!
