Fall is here and that means Halloween is right around the corner. I try to avoid candy products like the plague, but I have a BIG TIME weakness for Candy Corn around this time of year. I do everything I can to stay away from Candy Corn's sweet goodness, but my friends and family know my weakness, and inevitably someone winds up bringing me a bag or five. I'm fine as long as I don't take that first taste - if I eat just one - I’M TOAST! It won't take long for the bag to disappear.

Recently, a listener brought me a bag of regular Candy Corn in a flavor I have never seen before, because again, I don't buy it! The new flavor was Caramel Apple Candy Corn and to be honest, I'm not a big fan of candies that are supposed to taste like something else because they never do.... EVER.

I opened the bag of regular Candy Corn that day and it was gone very quickly. Yesterday was a stressful day and I was desperate for some Candy Corn, but the only thing I had was that bag of Caramel Apple Candy Corn. I put it away because it just didn't look good with it's red top and brown bottom...ICK!

It didn't take long before I relented and opened the bag and oh my God - It tasted exactly like a caramel apple! I was consumed and just like with regular Candy Corn, I went through that bag like a termite on a two-by-four! I know a lot of people have no use for Candy Corn, but if you like caramel apples, you will love this.

Now I'm going to open my drawer at my desk here and get what's left. Wait a minute IT'S GONE! I so feel like Charlie Brown right now.... aaaaaaaaggggghhhh!
