To burn it off
Candy corn is sugar, corn syrup and a bit of wax for the shine. That is why a handful has 36 g of carbs and basically no fat or protein.
One piece is 7 kcal, which sounds like nothing. The catch is that nobody eats one piece. It sits in a bowl on the counter and disappears 20 at a time.
Outside the US you will mostly meet it in an American sweet shop or a Halloween aisle import. Love it or hate it, people rarely sit in the middle.
