OT: (Halloween) Candy.

[Peter P.]

I gave out full-size Hershey Bars-and a toothbrush-to every Trick or Treater!
You'd be amazed how much the kids love the toothbrushes.

I also give out dog biscuits to the pooches that come around.

I agree; Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are killers, especially in the King Size package.

We only had a few kids in our neighborhood, so I have a good supply of mini Snickers, Paydays, and chocolate-dipped Paydays for fall ride food.

As I said, we only have a few trick-or-treaters in our neighborhood, and that is fine with us as it primarily consists of kids who live on the block. A friend lives in our city's historic neighborhood, where they see more than a thousand trick-or-treaters. It is not uncommon for residents in that neighborhood to purchase 50lbs of candy for that evening. I'm so happy to live on the quiet side of town.

candy corn....one of the 4 food groups and perhaps the healthiest....I can eat candy corn all day long and never feel guilty....

I must admit that I like Smarties. To be honest, as someone who can't eat dairy, they're one of my only options from the standard halloween repertoire. Still there's a something about those sweet and sour chalk morsels that really hits the spot.

I've never had wax cola bottles and don't really love Tootsie rolls, but I like just about everything else on that list except for candy corn, which is probably my least favorite candy no matter the time of year.

Top row: yes

I know I will never be sponsored by anyone for cycling, but a candy sponsor ranks very high on the dream sponsor list. Twix Kit FTW.

Holy crap other than the peanut butter kisses and tootsie rolls that list has most of my favorites. Circus peanuts are almost as good as candy corn not something i consider nearly as convenient to eat every day. Good&plenty are another favorite and i think if were given a choice of only being able to have one candy the rest of my life it would be neccos. I have spent way too much on those lovely wafers chasing that perfect sugar high.

When I lived in Paris (TX), our house was in a tony neighborhood and trick or treat was strictly 6-8 PM. During those two hours, I'd go through 20-25 bags of candy. Anything left over when to the bowl in the conference room at work.
