All candies are not created equal. If you're chasing a sugar high — or trying to avoid one — you need to know which package to reach for on the shelf, and the answer isn't always as obvious as you might think.
That's why the data experts at the health data site HealthGrove compiled a list of candies with the most sugar per serving. The research team gathered nutrition information from manufacturers' websites; therefore, some serving sizes are reported in units, grams or ounces. When available, single-serving packages were considered.
The candies are ordered from least to most sugar, with the sweetest offender taking the No. 1 spot. Ties in sugar content were broken first by the number of calories per serving, and subsequent ties were broken based on fat content. Only candies currently available for purchase made the list.
Note: Not all images depict the exact serving sizes. Serving sizes vary.
