Halloween is Sunday, so there is a big debate right now on whether people like candy corn or not. The debate started last week with Mississippi State football head coach Mike Leach who talked about his favorite Halloween candy and candy corn was not one of them.

In fact, he put out a tweet this week in favor of dumping the traditional Halloween candy in the trash. So, the question was put to several Big Ten basketball coaches: Do you like candy corn? Here are just a few of their answers.

It looks as if the vote is split down the middle with not liking the candy ahead slightly. Candy corn has been around for about 100 years and was started in Philadelphia. The debate on whether or not people like the candy, has been going on for years.
