What Is Montana’s Most Popular Halloween Candy?

It's that time of year again, the one where kids go feral for free candy, adults "test" the candy bowl a little too often, and every store aisle smells like plastic masks and pumpkin spice. DoorDash just dropped its list of America's top Halloween treats, and what each state prefers the most individually.

What is the most popular Halloween candy in the Country?

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups once again wear the candy crown. Honestly, name a better duo than chocolate and peanut butter. I'll wait. While the country collectively cheers for Reese's, M&M's is not too far in the number two spot.

America's Favorite Halloween Candy By State

Here in Montana, we've got our own opinions when it comes to the sweet stuff. I figured Montana would have some type of chocolate topping the charts, but no we're officially Team Red Vines. A very specific candy in the great licorice debate, unlike those Twizzler-loving states back East. You could say Montanans have refined taste in candy.

And get this: the old-school goodies are having a comeback moment. Baby Bottle Pops rose from the grave with sales up 641%, Dum-Dums doubled, and even Strawberry Bon Bons (up over 600%). I would classify the Bon Bons one of those candies that you would find in every Montana grandma's crystal dish by the front door.

Other weird trick-or-treat candy comebacks..

Even raisins made a weird comeback. Yes, raisins. Apparently, they're the dark horse of Halloween, with sales jumping 522%. Somewhere, a trick-or-treater just cried.

So, whether you're stocking up for trick-or-treaters or "just getting ahead of the rush," the message is clear: RED VINES are what the people want in Montana. Hopefully that helps narrow down your choice when you're staring at the candy aisle.
