just give me some candy

candy corn... it's absolutely one of the best creations in the history of the world. i love candy corn. and it's fat free! lol. but you know what i dont love about candy corn?? the size if the bag. it's more than twice as big as it needs to be which means they fill it less than halfway. and no, fattiness is not the reason behind this annoyance. but do you know how much plastic they could save by cutting the bags in half?? plastic that could better be employed in making barbies to give people unrealistic expectations about their appearances and life in general. barbies that 19 year old girls who need lives could be buying. and it's not like they need the big bag to advertise on. most of it is just empty space. plus, if they cut out half the bag there will still be space for the candy to move around in. and yes, i do realize the same thing holds true for everything else in a bag so dont bother telling me.

on another candy corn note, we (my sister and i) noticed that this year's candy corn is flatter than usual. noticeably flatter. not just one or two... all of them.

i remember one semester i had this really awesome class taught by two amazing professors. we somehow got into a conversation about how we eat candy corn. one professor ate it the normal way, biting off one color at a time. the other one just popped the whole thing into her mouth at once. *gasp* i know. how do you eat candy corn?

oh, and have you ever realized the different colors have different tastes? the white layer is my favorite. it's the lightest and sugariest. it's also the bottom even though most people think that the yellow is the bottom.

and october 30 is national candy corn day because it is awesome and deserves its own day. you know that if the amount of candy corn americans eat a year were laid end to end it would go around the world four and a half times?! that's a lot of candy... and that's only americans.

on a completely unrelated note that shows that my intelligence goes beyond candy, who thought that obama deserved winning the nobel peace prize?? yeah, me neither. you don't give someone the prize for stuff they say theyre gonna do. sheesh.
