Halloween candy battle royale fight is splitting Twitter apart

Which of these Halloween candies would you be okay losing forever?

Move over, partisan political feuds, because there's a new debate lighting up Twitter: which Halloween candy is the worst?

It started thanks to Liz Dueweke, news anchor for Seattle's Fox Q13, when she shared the below tweet asking Twitter which of six popular Halloween treats "has to go. Forever." The options: Snickers, Reese's cups, Milky Way, KitKat, M&Ms, and Twix.

For her part, Dueweke said she'd ditch Milky Way which is a perfectly fine answer.

An important caveat, though: this question excludes terrible candy like Almond Joy, Mounds, or Three Musketeers.

As for the rest of Twitter, the opinions varied wildly, as you can imagine.

Ouch.

Still, despite the exclusions, this kind of quiz is an excellent litmus test for your friends and loved ones because anyone who dares suggest that Reese's cups (especially of the seasonal variety) should go away forever should be cut out of your life forever.
