What does your Halloween candy of choice you? My favs are listed below.
Almond Joy: These folks are happy-go-lucky.
Introduced in 1946 by the Peter Paul Candy Manufacturing Co. in New Haven, Conn. It’s a companion to the Mounds bar, which arrived in 1920. *The snack size (17 grams) has 80 calories.
Butterfinger: Evasive, slippery, not necessarily to be trusted. Invented in 1923 by the Curtiss Candy Co. of Chicago. The crunchy bar wrapped in chocolate is now made by Nestle.
*The Fun Size (18.5 grams) has 85 calories.
Snickers:Just going with the crowd, the safe candy choice, guaranteed to please the masses. Not ambitious, but dependable. Created in 1930 by Mars, Snickers bars sold for a nickel. The Fun Size was introduced in 1968. *The Fun Size (17 grams) has 80 calories.
Twizzlers: Sickos. Truly demented. Plastic people living plastic lives. The Twizzlers brand was introduced in 1929. The red licorice strips are manufactured by Y&S Candies, a company established in 1845 that is now a Hershey subsidiary. *The snack size (14 grams) has 37 calories.
So I am the happy-go-lucky, dependable, yet evasive and slippery, twisted, demented type.
Can’t say I would argue with that.
Hat-tip to Stop and Wander.

Reeses, Candy Corn, & Butterfingers here
You must be attracting those Almond Joy brunettes because I love that candy. That and Twix. A distant third goes to Kit Kat.
Almond Joy has nuts so if a brunette likes nuts then she probably likes a nutty guy like me.
BTW, I was drinking a beer called “Nutty Brunette” at that brewery noted in my “What’s In A Blog Name” page on the sidebar.
