What happens to unsold holiday candy and treats?

Today reports that unsold holiday candy is sent to discount stores, food pantries, or in most cases, if the store has purchased them they can stay on shelves for discounted prices. Big retailers like Walmart, Target, Walgreen’s and others typically sell out of the leftover candy stock after the price cuts.

Grocery stores aren’t the only places with fun holiday foods to try this year. There are a number of fast food chains getting in the spirit with festive new menu items too!
