Here in Michigan it says Starburst that's a total lie, we live on Chocolate it's a mainstay here.. Starbursts are good but I've never seen anyone walking around with them sticking out of their back pocket..

I don't know who lied and said that Starburst was the candy of choice in Texas 🤣 we're all about chocolate in this state too 🤦

Why the hell didn't they use the American KitKat logo on a map of America?

Actually it looks like Butterfinger is the least popular, winning only 1 state.

I demand a recount, by population. The Reese's states are mostly empty (apologies to Penn and NJ). Meanwhile, Kit Kat captured Va, NY, and CA. Likely winner in the popular vote. F the electoral college.
