The Halloween Treat You Need, Based on Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type
ISTJ - The Inspector → Candy Corn
Candy corn is kind of a “love it” or “hate it” treat, we know, but some of us love this Halloween staple (you know who you are).
With your quiet and reserved personality, you’re just the type to indulge in candy corn. You also like order in your life. Perhaps this might come in the form of candy corn’s consistently good flavor no matter where you get it from (seriously, has anyone had bad candy corn?).
ISTP - The Crafter → Lego Candy
You love hands-on stuff and new experiences. Maybe you wouldn’t mind building a few items with your candy before eating it. Lego candy offers up just that.
So, go ahead. Build away and create. Then, enjoy a quick treat.
ISFJ - The Protector → Tootsie Pops
You’re quiet and reserved - generally speaking. You like sitting back and observing.
A Tootsie Pop allows you to do just that. Sit back and enjoy your Tootsie Pop while you listen to others debate the politics of today’s world. Take in all the details (you love to do that too!).
ISFP - The Artist → Lifesavers
The artist loves colors. They love variety. Despite this, you’re easy-going and peaceful. Yet, you also like keeping your options open.
A candy, like Lifesavers, gives you just that. You have a multitude of flavors to choose from!
Someone as caring as you deserve a treat that you might be able to share with others. You never get one Lifesaver in a pack, so you can share your goodies with friends or family.
INFJ - The Advocate → Dubble Bubble Gum
You love to dream about potentially changing the world someday, and maybe you will! On top of dreaming, you often follow through as well.
During your daydreams and thoughtful evaluations of life and the world this Halloween, pop a Dubble Bubble piece of gum. Scientists say that chewing gum may help you concentrate longer, which can really get your ideas rolling into the action you crave.
INFP - The Mediator → M&Ms
Your interests are simple: You want to make the world a better place. You consider emotions when making decisions, and you want to serve humanity in the best way possible.
This is why your treat of choice is M&Ms. It’s a classic, and it’s one that you can share with others or enjoy during your much-needed alone time.
INTJ - The Architect → Milky Way Bar
Considering that you like to work alone and are rather introverted, the Milky Way bar is perfect for you. It’s one bar, so you get it all to yourself. It may also meet your high expectations when it comes to treats and chocolate.
This bar can provide you with the energy to think. It’s a no-fuss, quick, and easy snack.
INTP - The Thinker → Smarties
You are frequently described as quiet and analytical. You’re quite content to spend time alone thinking and solving problems, which is why your Halloween candy of choice is Smarties.

You are charismatic and have a zest for life like no other. You also make a great leader. This is why Jolly Ranchers are your go-to treat this Halloween. Jolly Ranchers never disappoint and always keep things light and fun.
