Favorite Candy Preference
Methodology:
I plan to collect data from 25 of my peers regarding their preference of candy
between 4 popular candy choices. These four choices of candy are Skittles,
Sour Path Kids, Reece's Cups, and M&Ms. I will survey all 25 of my peers
through verbal, and written communication such as email and text message.

Description: To collect this data I surveyed 25 of my peers to assess which

of these four candy types they preferred the most. The results were obtained
verbally and electronically through email and text message. After viewing
these graphs it can be concluded that M&Ms are the most popular of the
group, followed by Skittles, and then a tie between Sour Patch Kids and
Recces Cups. These results correspond to my predictions of what the
outcome would be after I did research on popular candy choices. My research
shows that chocolate made products were the most favored almost always.
Research done by others concluded that chocolate shows up multiple times
in the top five most popular candies. These statements can be backed up by
the data I collected because a chocolate product proved to be the most
preferred choice also.
