Monty Fool Money's Chris Hill and Osset Sharma are diving into the business of candy. They'll take a closer look at Hershey's market-beating strategy and why shrinkflation is hitting your trick or treat bag. The question is, are we gullible or are we just addicted? Are we gullible enough to say, "Oh, that's a king size?"

Ricky Mulvey and Asit Sharma gear up for Halloween and discuss: - Why candy is a growing market that’s also shrinking - Hershey’s M&A strategy and supply chain questions - Official Halloween candy power rankings
