Does Idaho Rank as One of the Top "Sweet Toothed" States in America? Let's find out.

Odds are, if you live in Idaho, you’re a definite candy-lover!

How do I know this? Well, Instacart recently shared their “wicked insights about America’s Halloween candy preferences,” and Idaho was ranked one of the top “Sweet Toothed States,” purchasing more candy via Instacart than almost any other state.

Not only are we one of the top states for purchasing candy, but we’re all the way up at number 2!

Instacart says, “For two years in a row, Utah, Idaho, Alaska, Montana, and Washington purchased the most Halloween candy, demonstrating a bigger sweet tooth compared to Florida, Delaware, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina all buy the least amount of Halloween candy.”

I mean... number 2 is pretty high on the list, and for multiple years in a row? I guess for us and Utah this isn’t even a competition to buy more candy than other states haha! But on a more personal note, I don’t like losing to Utah, so can we buy more candy and beat Utah this year?

The number one candy we purchase, though, is absolutely shocking. If you’re thinking anything normal like Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, M&M’s, or Starbursts... you’re wrong... unfortunately. Believe me, that’s what I was thinking, too. The number one candy we purchase in Idaho is Red Vines! And Instacart was sure to specify that Idaho prefers Red Vines over Twizzlers.
