The Philadelphia Veterans Affairs office announced Wednesday that it would hold a Halloween parade on Friday for children of VA employees, but warned employees not to hand out any candy or sweets to the kids.
Instead, the VA said the day care center in the office has “joined First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move Program,” which means the kids should be given things other than candy.
“Please help us teach our children to make healthy food choices!!” the VA said in an email to employees.
“If you would like to hand out treats during the parade, please give healthy snacks such as pretzels, raisins, granola bars and sliced apples,” it said. “NO CANDY PLEASE!”
“You may want to consider gifts such as pencils, crayons and rings instead of snacks,” it added.

Dateline, 1 Nov 2014 - Authorities have determined that William T. Drill's house was toilet-papered shortly before it was doused with gasoline and burnt to the ground. The suspect is described as 4'6" tall and wearing a torn linen sheet. Mr. Drill was quoted as saying, "I had it coming."
