A lot of parents are putting Easter baskets together right now and chances are that parents are picking their favorites out for their kids because, well, we want to eat our kids' candy.  #TrueStory   So, if you had to pick just one candy off the shelf at HyVee or Walmart as your favorite, which one would you grab first?

According to Taste of Home, the #1 candy that we are buying at stores right now is pretty divided across our country and there are 4 main winners.  OK, actually 3.  Massachusetts and Vermont decided to do their own thing and pick a candy that no one else in the United States wants to eat - the Cadbury Chocolate Mini Eggs.

And the winners of the rest of the U.S. go to...

• Cadbury Easter Creme Egg - most of the Western states as well as some of the Southern states too.  We've got a few stragglers that decided to jump in on this Cadbury party from the East coast too.

• Starburst Easter Jelly Beans - 5 states decided that they hate chocolate and picked jelly beans.

• Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs - Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, and the rest of the U.S knows that the peanut butter chocolate combo is da bomb!
