In honor of Halloween month, the folks at online grocery platform Instacart analyzed purchase data to reveal Americans candy preferences , and they identified some very interesting rivalries.

Looking at a state-by-state breakdown, they found that people out West tend to favor Peanut M&Ms, while those in the eastern half of the U.S. are more likely to opt for Reeses Peanut Butter Cups. (However, in two states Hawaii and New Hampshire regular M&Ms were the favorite.)
