Today was Who Knew Wednesday on the show, and we decided to do something a little different.
Joe talked about his experience in the bulk candy store at the Ohio State Fair on Monday, so we opened the phones and asked you to call in and tell us what candies you would pick if you could go into a candy store and choose 8 different 4 ounce bags of candy.
Joe chose Indian Corn, Mike & Ike’s, Swedish Fish, Maple Nut Goodies, peach rings, honey roaster cashews, orange slices, and Reese’s Pieces.
I said that I would get 3 bags of dark chocolate covered raisins, and then one bag each of peach rings, sour gummy worms, M&Ms, blue raspberry Sour Patch Kids, and blue raspberry sour tape.
We received several calls from people saying they would choose Chick-o-sticks, black licorice, chocolate covered raisins, malt balls, Bit-O-Honey, JuJu Fish, Sno Caps, Skittles, Laffy Taffy, Swedish Fish, Twix, Sweet Tarts, Smarties, and gummy bears.
Joe also shared a list of the top 25 selling candies, which you can find over here.
Our Word of the Day was forswear, a verb meaning to promise to stop doing or give up something. You can read more on that here.
Plus, don’t forget to head over here to see all the information on where we will be during the next week of On The Road with Big Blue.
Have an awesome Wednesday evening!
