How much money do Americans spend on Halloween candy?

Quote:
In 2008, the United States produced 1.1 billion pounds of pumpkins. Illinois grows the most with 496 million pounds.
Last year, as many as 36 million trick-or-treaters knocked on 111.4 million doors across the United States.
Each year, Americans eat 23.8 pounds of candy. Wonder how much of that is consumed on Oct. 31?
Each year, $2 billion is spent on Halloween candy.
More than 35 million pounds of candy corn will be produced this year. Quick! Name one person who eats candy corn.
Snickers is the most popular Halloween candy

We live in a small string of homes located on a road not suitable for foot traffic... so now that the "neighborhood" kids have grown, we don't get any trick-or-treaters. I spend $0 on halloween candy now.
