As pumpkins start popping up on porches, you know that the halloween season is upon us.
That means we need to get serious about the most important part of the festivities - trick or treat candy. So, our Cutter and Buck team set out to answer the hotly debated question - which piece of candy is the best?
Thanks to the official Halloween experts at USA Today, the results are in.
The five most popular candies across the nation are:
- Reese's Cups
- Skittles
- M&M's
- Starburst
- Hot Tamales
If your favorite is on the list, congratulations. You have great taste.
And if you’re stuck on a costume idea, why not pledge your true devotion to your candy crush by making it a costume? See our spooky inspiration ideas below, paired with men’s clothing and women’s clothing curated style picks from our Cutter and Buck classic lines.
Rock Reese’s Cups
Costume Idea: The pinnacle of sweet tooth heaven for chocolate-peanut butter fanatics, you can create your look by combining bright orange, bold yellow and deep brown hues. We recommend pairing one of our orange polos with yellow accents (a hat or headband works!)
