WATCH: Mike Leach spits truth on how terrible candy corn is

The great candy corn debate rages on.

The brightly-colored, sugar-loaded candy pieces are a staple for some during the autumn months and around Halloween. Many people love the candy and keep it on hand leading up to winter.

There is, however, a large following of people that cannot stand the odd item. This is understandable as candy corn truly is the same consistency of candle wax.

The candy has seemingly become a hotly-debated topic with what appears to be a 50-50 split for those who like candy corn and those who cannot stand it.

Washington State head coach Mike Leach was recently asked about the Halloween treat, and he left no doubt that it is not on his list of favorites. Here is a look at his comments from @TheoLawson_SR on Twitter:
