Millennials share a strong affinity for red jubes, and are seven times more like to prefer red over black jubes (61% say they like red and only 8% say black). Baby boomers on the other hand, are split down the middle.<\/li>\n<li>What\u2019s in your glovebox? 71% of Canadians living in Vancouver like to bring candy along for the ride as part of their\u00a0<strong>summer road trip experience.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For more information on Dare Candy, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.darefoods.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/www.darefoods.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1467832761073000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHwfUowpISbRTCQdrX5YnCwghncDA\">www.darefoods.com<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DareCandyCo\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DareCandyCo&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1467832761073000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFgBepJuli2sEgiLKlYKJFJOi_mDg\">www.facebook.com\/DareCandyCo<\/a>.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>To follow the Dare Candy Treats Truck across Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/darecandyca\" rel=\"nofollow\">@DareCandyCa<\/a> on Twitter for location updates &amp; special guest appearances.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Enter to win a Dare Candy Basket:<\/p>\n<p>Contest is open to residents of Canada 18+ and ends on August 5, 2016 at 11:59pm.
