What Are The Most Popular Halloween Candies In PA, NJ, DE?

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- If ever there was a time to satisfy your sweet tooth, Halloween would be it. So, what do you hope lands in your bag or gets left over?

In New Jersey, Sour Patch Kids beat out traditional sweets. In Delaware, 3-Musketeers took no prisoners.

The survey also found that Toblerone appeals most to Arizonans and Californians crave life-savers.
