Here’s a random question for the first day of December: How do you eat a candy cane?
The National Confectioners Association asked 1,500 Americans about their candy-cane-eating technique. And the most popular way to eat them is straight end first.
55% of us start by suckin’ on the straight end of a candy cane . . . 28% go for the curved end first . . . and 17% said neither, they break it into pieces first.
73% of us prefer classic peppermint candy canes. 27% like other “fun” flavors.
You can get them in a lot of weird flavors now, including mac-and-cheese . . . bacon . . . hot dogs . . . pickles . . . sardine-flavored candy canes . . . and even ones that are supposed to taste like possum.
The poll also asked about other types of holiday candy: Our favorite foil-wrapped candies are chocolate Santas, chocolate coins, and chocolate snowmen. (NCA)
