This sounds really good and I am as well, a huge fan of carmal corn. When I first saw the post I was thinking candy corn, you know the orange traiangle candy with the yellow then the white tip. A popular Halloween candy. Anyway, if you like the candybar PAYDAY? just grab a handful of candy corn and a handful of salted peanuts and mix. It tastes exactly like a payday and you can eat it like trailmix. YUMMY!
