National Candy Corn Day

Ah, Candy Corn.

I love Candy Corn.  I can’t get enough of them.  I bought a one-pound bag the other week and ate the entire thing in one day.  (Like a fool, I left the open bag on my desk.)

Tomorrow is National Candy Corn Day.

Seriously.

You can read all about Candy Corn, and a little about the holiday itself, on the National Confectioners Association site, candyusa.org here.

I wasn’t aware of this, but apparently Candy Corn is available year round, not just before Halloween.  I only ever look for the stuff right around Halloween, which is sort of a good thing given my complete and utter lack of control around those little yellow, orange, and white-tipped kernels of corn syrupy goodness.

Candy Corn.

Any time I want it?

Now THAT’s scary.
