Worst Halloween Candy or trick or treat item

That's me and twizzlers.


BR, I wish you could come up here for trick or treat. We get a lot of little guys and not too many big scary ones.

Yes, I love seeing the little kids. <3 .So adorable! When my daughter was young enough to trick-or-treat, we'd drive her to less ostentatious neighborhoods so she could get the real neighborhood feel of Halloween with neighborhood kids (as opposed to thugs who look like they're about to do a home invasion).

We've actually thought about hiring a police officer to protect us at Halloween. But we'd also have to hire another to keep the parents from driving through our lawn, damaging it and our sprinkler heads. GRRRRR!

Laffy Taffy is the best Halloween candy this year, thanks to D4L. I prefer Jolly Ranchers, know what I'm sayin'?

Smarties are good.

Hey BR...have you thought about going over to a friend's house to celebrate Halloween? Or maybe go to a carnival at a school or church?

bdarg just shared that he hates the root beer flavored hard candies shaped like barrells. He loves root beer too, but I guess they are just toooo gross.

Just thought of another worst candy -- Candied Apples on a stick. I have actually had old ladies give them out, like you are going to eat them right there. What are you to do with a candied apple? I guess the trick was on me. Those ladies probably sat around while playing Bridge, planning for months. If I ever live in a real neighborhood with trick or treaters, I may try that one for shlts and giggles. :funn:

Our Halloween tradition now is to make Paul Prudhomme's chili recipe (AWESOME - I'll provide the recipe if you'd like - the key ingredient is molasses), drink beer, turn off the lights, light some candles in the kitchen, eat the chili and homemade salsa, drink beer, and get ready to grab the guns whenever we hear an alarm in the yard go off.

I still miss the little kids in their costumes. But, like I've said, it's too risky to open your door to some of the thugs that drop by just to check out a big house.
