It\u2019s that time of the year again! Time for scary movies, Halloween parties, costumes and CANDY!<\/p>\n

For some, celebrating Halloween is thing of the past, something they did as a child. For others, you are never too old to celebrate Halloween, especially when it comes to partaking in all the sweet treats promoted shamelessly during this time. Arguably, the best aspect of Halloween is the FREE candy.<\/p>\n

We all remember going around to our neighbor\u2019s houses dressed as our favorite characters hoping to get bags of candy. Unfortunately, all candy is not created equally.<\/p>\n

Here is my list of best and worst candy treats.<\/p>\n

1) Miniature chocolate bars
\n<\/strong>Three Musketeers, Snickers, and Hersey\u2019s were what I always looked forward to the most. Mini packets of Skittles, M&M\u2019s and Reese\u2019s join this category.<\/p>\n

2) The Fun Dip
\n<\/strong>The powdered candy pouch that came with that hard white sugar stick was one of my favorites. I always threw away the stick, what was that thing made of<\/p>\n

3) Lemonheads and sour Warheads<\/strong>
\nAnother fan favorite for those who love candy that is sweet and yet so sour it locks your jaw.<\/p>\n

4) Tootsie Rolls<\/strong>
\nNot one of my favorites. I used to like them as a kid, but hated how some people would give out tons of tootsie rolls without any of the other types of candy. Tootsie Rolls come in fruit flavors now, so I would not have been as mad.<\/p>\n

5) Dum Dum suckers<\/strong>
\nThat person who gave these suckers was sure to get tricked! The best thing about Halloween was that at the end of the night, if you didn\u2019t get the candy you wanted, you could always trade treats with your friends.\u00a0 Now that I\u2019m grown, I think I will just visit the stores the day after Halloween and get the candies I like the most, 50 percent off of course.\u00a0 Happy Halloween!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
