I’m handing out almost every type of candy on the “worst” list.

Me too-M&M's (both kinds), Skittles and Snickers. I also have Milk Duds which aren't on either list but I would imagine they would be on the bad list as well. I just buy what I like and then if there's any left over, I give it out to my students so I don't over indulge! Since they are poor college students, they tend to be happy with whatever I bring them.

In our house, they get one hour to eat themselves sick. (Dad too) Then it’s swept and sent into Daddy’s work.

At least that's what he tells you.!

My (welfare mom, general lowlife) niece and her seven foot tall husband (also lowlife and Wiccan) husband went trick or treating one year. (they did not have a child yet)

They were highly offended when people turned them away.

Typical Libs.

Best Halloween giveout... Not candy...

I once had to give out nearly a 1000 of these babies... after two years it became too much a pain to deal with... gave a bunch to the church function and let them deal with the kiddos.

Candy corn gets a bad rap, IMO. In small doses it’s fine. A perfectly respectable filler for the candy dish. I like the kind with the pseudo-chocolate bottom layer.

Only if it's Brach's. Every other brand is gross.

I just usually hand out cigarettes and those little nip sized bottles of whiskey, since I’m concerned about the obesity epidemic.

LOL... can't ....... stop ..... laughing.......

These never get eaten. They just sit in a bowl until the next Halloween where they are passed out to the next crop of kids.

This candy company that made these actually went out of business in 1946. But the candy still gets passed around.

Yes. It was around the same time that I collected pop bottles to buy my treats after school.
