The spooky season is here and if you have kids, then the topic of conversation for the next couple of weeks will be focused on CANDY.

Every year some website tries to figure out what the most popular candies are in every state and of course with a state as big as Texas, the options seem endless. One thing is for sure, your precious CANDY CORN didn't even crack the Top 3 so its great to know that trick or treaters in Texas won't be terrorized with some a horrible treat.

Website Candystore.com just published their findings on the Most Popular Candies In Every State.

According to data, candy sales took a hit over the last couple of years due to the pandemic and lockdowns which prevented trick or treating but this year looks to be on pace to be back at pre-pandemic levels as the kids get outside and start harassing you for candy.

America is truly great once again knowing that Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are back at the top of the Halloween candy charts this year across all 50 state. Clocking in at Number 2 in the U.S. is another favorite Skittles, which has dropped that GODAWFUL apple flavor (the green one) and returned back to Lime. Wrapping America's Top 3 at Number 3 was M&M's.

So, What's The Most Popular Halloween Candy In Texas? Let's Start At Number 3:

Checking at Number 3 is Sour Patch Kids, sometimes they are sour, and sometimes they're sweet, but I can confirm that the kids go CRAZY for these every time. If you want to avoid an egging, make sure you have these on deck.

NUMBER 2: REESE'S CUPS

I'm not going to lie, I was SURPRISED to see Starburst land at the number one spot. According to data, over 450 TONS (that's over 900,000 pounds) of Starburst were sold in Texas. That's a crazy amount! So again, if you want to avoid getting terrorized by tiny trick or treaters keep these 3 in stock.

Longview Woman Has Great Idea for Halloween Decorating '22, I Think We All Hop On

I wish I had the drive of Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor, going all out on my house every Christmas, but that means packing up everything in January -- and that means I'm out. One Longview, TX woman may've just had an idea that gets folks, like me, back in the seasonal home decorating game.

That takes us to Angel F. of Longview. Angel wants to spread the Halloween spirit, but doesn't want to make the financial commitment to decorations, which I get. It can get hefty. So she took to the All Things Longview Facebook page to see if there's anyone in the area with decorations going unused
