Let's talk Halloween candy..

[bullygirl979]

Mostly because I am bored and don't want to work.

Favorites? Ones that made you want to gag?

How do you go about picking what candy to pass out?

Hmmm......

[roselis]

As far as handing out.... I try to get decent candy, but best value too. So I just picked up a 95pc bag of reeses and hersheys, and a bag of smarties.

My favorites.... reeses, mounds, junior mints.

[lovelybb]

I love kitkats and snickers! Oh and tootsie rolls... my FAVORITE!!!

I haven't passed out candy in years, I usually pick what I like so I can eat it myself

Hate candy corn, I really don't get the fuss...

[starburst604]

I hate candy corn. I think it's sooooo disgusting. Besides that, I'm pretty much good with any candy that has chocolate in it, but no coconut or raisins. Also not a fan of Butterfingers.

Do you know I have never in my life lived somewhere that I get trick or treaters? It's the weirdest thing! No matter where I move, including my move this weekend, I am off the beaten path or in a large apartment building. I would probably buy/hand out/eat Kit Kat's, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Hershey's, Nestle Crunch/M&M's. Mostly because I love all of these.

ETA: SNICKERS! How could I forget my beloved Snickers?!

Candy corn.... +o(

OMG...my office mate just brought "peanut butter kisses" back to my office. 1) They aren't kiss shaped. WTF 2) They spooge in your mouth. Ewww....I wasn't prepared for that.

A friend was complaining on FB about the PUMPKIN kisses? WTF is that? Now that would make me pukefaced.

They are gross. But peanut butter kisses are gross. There isn't any chocolate associated with them! WTF. AND THEY SPOOGE!

[jojoandleo]

I love all candy, except black licorice. Who likes black licorice anyway? Why do they even continue to make it?

I usually get a bag of chocolate goodness (reeses, kit kats, and other stuff) and a bag of fruity candy (skittles and starburst, or the laffy taffy/nerds/other stuff). We got full size candy from Sam's our first year here, but we live in a growing neighborhood, so while we get kids, we don't get a ton. I had to eat the left overs myself-THE HORROR!

Are those the candies in the plain orange or black wrappers? Those things are nasty and I don't even know what they are! I've also never understood why people hand those out.

My favorites are KitKats, Twix and Three Musketeers. I usually just get one of those big bags that has a mix of the different candy bars, and make sure that my favorites are included.

I'm not a big fan of Butterfingers either. Or Heath bars. Yuck.

[udscoobychick]

I adore candy corn. I buy a bag just for myself every year. I also like Mounds, Almond Joy, Pepperment Patties, Reese's, and 3 Musketeers. Not a big fan of pure chocolate stuff, like Kisses--I need something else in there. And I prefer fruity candy--Nerds were always one of my favorites!

I'll probably pick up a bag of whatever and hand it to my roommate to hand out lol.

Oh, and we're apparently doing some thing at work where you leave a container filled with Halloween goodies on someone's desk anonymously, along with a note saying "You've been boo-ed!" that explains all the rest of the directions. I got Boo-ed today, so I need to make up baskets for two of my CWs. In my spare time. Which I don't have lol. I'm not very crafty or creative, so I'm stressing out over this and probably WAAAY overthinking it.

[naeljun]

I'm with JoJo. I love pretty much everything except black licorice. I also love candy corn. I put that as my facebook status today actually.

I don't give out candy but when I did it would be the good stuff most of the time. PB Cups, snickers, mounds, almond joy

[explorer2001]

I'm the evil house not handing out candy. This year I'm handing out glow bracelets instead.

[Bernadine]

My favorite is probably Reeses.

I'm so excited- J lives in a huge townhouse community, he gets tons of trick or treaters. My whole family is going up there to give out candy, none of us have ever lived anywhere that had many.

Yes. Candy isn't good for babies either. And boys can just leave them straight as glow sticks rather than tying it around their wrist. However I will consider getting a bag of candy as back up.

Candy corn is awesome, especially the chocolate flavored. I love jelly beans (except the black licorice flavored ones) and tootsie pops.

Also I could live on just kit kats and nerds.

Black licorice is my all time most hated candy, seriously there is nothing worse.

Dude...you are just plain wrong.

[achase123]

I love Reeses but I try not to eat chocolate.

That eliminates a lot of Halloween candy for me but I love the sour patch kids or anything gummy. Oh, and caramel. I love caramel.

No, you just haven't given candy corn a chance.

I say carmel because I am lazy.

[turtle1120]

I say car-mel because that's how everyone around here says it. I think it's kind of a regional thing.
