I actually like the anise flavor of black licorice. What is candy corn supposed to taste like? It's like eating table sugar mixed into wax.
 
One time I won a tall and thin jar of candy corn. I ended up dumping the candy corn and using the jar for spaghetti.
 
personally i prefer candy corn because black licorice tastes like shit
I kinda like them both actually, but candy corn is something you only eat once a year, on Halloween and you can only eat a few pieces because it's literally just sugar. It used to be made with honey or something, I think, but if you eat more than like a handful, it starts to taste like chalk and sugar and whatever corn syrup and other crap they use to hold it together.

I legitimately like black licorice, there's a sort of earthy, anise and molasses flavor that I like because it's not too sweet. The spice reminds me of chai tea in a way.
 
Black licorice may actually rob the heart of potassium despite being used in traditional chinese medicine.

Candy corn can come in different flavors, I had raspberry lemonade ones that were awesome.

You know what pissed me off as a kid though? That one house that gave these fuckers:

Why are the only options candy corn or black licorice? I personally think diet candy's the worst. Also candy corn is literally just sugar and honey.
they're staple halloween candies. sure, there's others, but the two are most common around this part of the year
