America's Top 10 Favorite Chocolate Candies

It should come as no surprise that Americans have a sweet tooth. According to SymphonyIRI Group, a Chicago market research firm, people in the U.S. spent more than $7 billion for individual-sized chocolate candy bars, bags, and boxes in just one year. 

But where is the bulk of that money going? Here, we take a look at those best-selling individual-sized chocolate candies that are satisfying America's sugar fix. What you'll find is that oldies are still goodies — many of the top 10 have been around since before World War II. 

And while we're looking at individual-sized chocolate candies under 3.5 ounces, we would be remiss if we didn't mention other sales-toppers. Russell Stover is number one when it comes to gift chocolate boxes, Tic Tacs is the best selling non-chocolate candy, and Wrigley's is tops when it comes to regular gum sales.
