The Season of Candy

I have determined that here in the US, there are two seasons: summer and candy. As summer wanes, the amount of candy available begins to skyrocket due to the approach of Halloween. That amount stays high all through winter and spring because of all of the candy-oriented holidays along the way. It finally comes to an end just after Easter, when the last cream egg disappears from the drug store counter. Then summer begins again. Or should that be called "The Season of Diet."
