Best and Worst Halloween Treats


Halloween is coming around again, and it's time to think about how you can keep the neighborhood kids happy so they don't throw eggs at you all night. So what are the best and worst Halloween treats for 2010?

The first rule is, don't be healthy. The second rule is, DON'T BE HEALTHY. Kids want sugar, so give it to them for this one night out of the year. They can have a healthy well-rounded nutritious diet every other night. Second rule: no candy corn. Chocolate is always good. Raisins are always bad. Please don't give out pennies. Godiva chocolates are always nice, or a Snickers bar, a Twix bar.

It's an annual ritual: Debating whether candy corn shouldn't be restricted to the confines of a single holiday, or if it's a devilish scourge that should be banished altogether. Are Smarties awesome or awfully similar to eating chalk? Will you get TP'd if you hand out raisins? Should people even be giving out caramel apples? That sort of thing.
