Any of the fruit flavored stuff.....starburst, skittles, gummies, fruit tootsie rolls, individual packs of sweet tarts, etc..
Pass on candy corn, brachs butterscotch hard candy, smarties, anything pure chocolate, and random taffy. Halloween night is a candy fest. The day after Halloween is usually candy before breakfast and intermittent snacking throughout the day. By the second or third day after, I am pretty sick of candy. That is when the "bowl" gets moved to the middle of the kitchen.....dont have the heart to throw the rest away, but it usually sits there for about a month. |
I used to levy a tax on the collected goods, with a surcharge that resulted in all peanut M&Ms coming my way. We let our kids take huge hauls, so they were usually more than happy pay tribute, and knew any chocolate/nut combo was sure to win dad's favor.
I can still picture my hauls from the '60s. Do they still give out those rubbery marshmallow things that are shaped like a peanut? Hated those. Seinfeld comments on them in one of his routines, and said he'd simply tell the person dispensing them, "No thanks, we've got all the doorstops we need." Next to Christmas and birthdays, Halloween was the best day of the year. |

My mom keeps a stash of those and Necco Wafers (which are basically multi-colored antacid tablets) to snack on when she visits. The odd thing is that she really goes out of her way to "hide" them, placing them in a bag and then putting the bag at the back of the cabinet. I tried to tell her that nobody was going to eat them. In fact, over the summer, we had an ant infestation. Even the ants didn't touch the Necco Wafers. http://snackerz.com/shop/images/snk2...us_peanuts.jpg |

As a general rule, Ferrero Rocher is the only chocolate which would make committing any crime absolutely legitimate, leave alone stealing. For the exception of my son who my husband and i would have to take a more diplomatic strategy and just start begging from.
