For as long as I can remember, I have always associated this particular candy with Halloween. Quite a bit of it would end up in our trick-or-treat bags. It seems the candy dispensers (adults) liked to buy this candy to hand out to the candy takers (costumed kiddies). Maybe it’s because it’s a bit nostalgic. After all, it’s been around since the 1880’s.

I have to say though, I saw "gourmet candycorn" at target, and was a little horrified.
