Candy Bracketween?!?

Yes, you can blame The Today Show on NBC for this post. They put out this bracket. Americans must love brackets. I like them. But do we care about that? We care about what Halloween candy reign supreme according to me, Outspoken_Diva. Because on this platform only my opinion counts. Plus, Halloween candy is nostalgic for me. It's the one time of the year, we got to eat candy, without restrictions.

Round 1

York vs 3 Musketeers

3 Musketeers

Chocolate & Mint is not enjoyable for me.

Mounds vs Almond Joy

Almond Joy

I'm not a fan of coconut. But my mom, Muh Diva loves Almond Joy.

Twix vs Reece's

Reece's

This one is hard. It's Caramel & Cookies versus Peanut Butter. Peanut Butter it is.

I hate Twix got out early

M&Ms vs Skittles

M&Ms

I can't remember the last time I had Skittles. But I know I had M&Ms at the beginning of the pandemic shelter-in-place because of boredom & stress.

Milky Way vs Snickers

Snickers

I am not a fan of chocolate candy without nuts or crispy cereal.

Twizzlers vs Starbursts

Starburst

I've had cravings for Starburst. I usually eat Twizzlers only because they're around.

100 Grand vs Baby Ruth

100 Grand

I don't remember 100 Grand. But I know I'm not a fan of Baby Ruth

Payday vs Butterfinger

Butterfinger

Peanut Butter is the best version of peanuts.

Round 2

Almond Joy vs 3 Musketeers

3 Musketeers

The Battle of the Dislikes

Coconut vs Plain Soft Chocolate

Reeces vs M&Ms

Reece's

M&Ms are just one note. Reece's has two flavors.

Snickers vs Starburst

Starburst

I like Snickers a lot. But I prefer fruity candy over chocolate.

100 Grand vs Butterfinger

Butterfinger

Again I don't remember 100 Grand. I may not have had one.

Round 3

3 Musketeers vs Reece's

Reece's

I don't like soft one-note chocolate.

Starburst vs Butterfinger

Starburst

Butterfinger gets caught in my teeth.

Final Round

Reece's vs Starburst

Let me just say the facts. I Love Peanut Butter. And I could eyeball this bracket and knew what candy would win. 

So, Congrats to Reece's. You're not my favorite. Heath Bars, Laffy Taffy(Except Banana), & Pixy Stix(I have no, zero self-control with Pixy Stix.) come before you. But you are still tasty to my taste buds. And we thank The Today Show for not putting those on this bracket. My tastes bubs don't need to know they miss them.

Oh HERE are the results of The Today Show's official brackets. I'm kinda not shocked. People love that candy. It is popular. And if you dare fill out this bracket, let me know your results. 

Happy Halloween!!!
