What’s the nastiest candy out there? The one you’d avoid even if it was the only piece left in your Halloween stash?

8. The Problem with Pez: More Dispenser Than Delight

Pez candies are perhaps best known for their iconic dispensers rather than the candy itself. The small, rectangular candies come in a variety of flavors, but their chalky texture and overly sweet taste have not won over everyone.While the novelty of Pez dispensers remains a major draw, the candy itself is often seen as secondary—more of a vehicle for the dispenser’s collectible nature. This has led to Pez being more appreciated for its packaging than its taste, leaving the candy often sidelined in favor of other treats.

9. Peanut Butter Kisses: The Halloween Reject

Peanut Butter Kisses are a staple of Halloween that many would rather avoid. These chewy candies are individually wrapped in orange and black wax paper, making them easily recognizable. However, their bland, overly sweet peanut butter flavor and sticky texture have not garnered many fans.Despite their festive appearance, Peanut Butter Kisses are frequently ranked among the least popular Halloween candies. Their lack of a strong, distinct flavor and challenging chew make them a common candidate for being left at the bottom of the Halloween candy stash.
