Is candy corn a staple of your diet during the halloween season?  Love it or hate it, the tricolor candy has been around since the 1880s. George Renninger, a candymaker at the Wunderle Candy Company in Philadelphia, invented this revolutionary candy and the Goelitz Confectionery Company started the mass production of the candy in the 20th century.
