DoorDash ranks the most popular candy in each state. What is Georgia's? - The Augusta Chronicle

Miguel Legoas from Gannett/USA Today explores Halloween candy preferences across America, revealing surprising regional favorites based on DoorDash ordering data.

DoorDash analyzed their October ordering patterns to determine the most popular Halloween candies by state. Georgia stands out as one of only three states where Trolli gummy candies claim the top spot, alongside Texas and Rhode Island. The sour gummy treats beat out traditional favorites, though most Trolli varieties contain gelatin except for their Sour Watermelon Sharks.

• Georgia joins Texas and Rhode Island as the only states preferring Trolli gummies over chocolate favorites
• Reese's Peanut Butter Cups dominate nationally, followed by M&M's and Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bars
• Southern states show diverse preferences, from Sweet Smiles Candy in multiple states to Skittles in Florida
• Most Trolli gummies contain animal-derived gelatin, making them unsuitable for vegetarian and vegan consumers
