Does anyone have an update on the guys who bought $35,000 worth of candy in Hackensack and Wayne, NJ? Last I saw, they caught the guy but not the candy itself. That stuff could be put back on store shelves, so if the candy has not been found, buying candy yourself and substituting it won't really be totally safe. Especially in northern Jersey. But then nothing is. Just looking for an update.
