    Ingredients in Brach's candy corn: sugar, corn syrup, confectioner's sugar glaze, salt, dextrose, artificial flavor, gelatin, titanium dioxide color, yellow 6, yellow 5, red 3, blue 1, sesame oil.
    i would rather have 80% dark chocolate

    I don't like candy corn either, but I don't think I ever once quoted the ingredients to make a point... What point were you trying to make, btw?

    My mother never let my siblings nor I have chocolate cereal. We had a very empty childhood. :(

    (Yet she let us have all the other sugary cereal? I never understood that.)

    I think my favorite is Reese's. Nom nom.

    It must be the corn syrup, it ain't natural.

    Ummmm my favorite? ??? Definitely love some captain crunch ad well

    Love Captain Crunch (with crunch berries) but it tears up the roof of my mouth! Surely, I'm not the only one?! :)

    My favorite Captain Crunch is the Oops All Berries. It tears my mouth up too. :(

    I say, "YES!" Anything with fruit (berry) and antioxidant (chocolate) IS HEALTHY! Cereals are fortified with vitamins & minerals, plus milk is PROTEIN! Can you tell I Iove cereal and this is my fave holiday? So enjoy Seinfeld :)
    This has to be acceptable for consumption given the time of year and it's limited availability correct????? Also the same for Franken berry and count chocula????

    Oh yeah! I'm so stoked for Count Chocula, and candy corn, season!

    Yes, enjoy your seasonal foods before they go away! I used to get Count Chocula when I saw the monster cereals display at Target.

    I do not eat Oreos any other time of the year but something about the orange colored creme in Halloween Oreos, combined with the fact that they taste fresher as they're only made this time of year, makes it an October ritual. Every year, I go to the store on September 30th and I get my gallon of milk and my pack of Halloween Oreos ready for October 1st. The next day, I open the cookies and milk and I enjoy. I eat two to four with a glass of milk on most days in October. It reminds me of my childhood and I just love this time of year, so I'm in a happy place for the entire month- if the cookies last the whole month, that is.

    Why? Chocolate contains a slurry of chemicals too, including theobromine which can easily kill dogs.
    A partial list includes: caffeine, theobromine, phenylethyulamine, anandamide, phenols and phenol derivatives (pyrogallol, phloroglucinol, hydroquinone), favalanos (epicathechin, epigallocatechin)

    Now if they still made "Fruit Brute" you could have all 4 of the monster cereals. Frankenberry is gone in my neck of the woods in Canada - only the Count and Boo left.

    *kitten* that noise. Dark chocolate tastes like cigarette ashes and coffee grounds. Where as candy corn is amazing.
