I purposely waited until this morning to buy our Halloween candy, and bought Almond Joys and Reese's Fast Breaks—stuff I don't like. But of course I keep sticking my hand in the bowl and eating this candy that I "don't like" whenever my 2 1/2 year old's back is turned. We'll be lucky if there's any left for the trick or treaters!

I *generally* buy candy I wouldn't eat myself. That isn't easy, and it has to be something kids like. I hate Snikers and Baby Ruths, and black licorice.

Naughty naughty. LOL.
My Mom used to have a bowl where my siblings and I could dump the stuff we didn't like, and that she would use for trick or treaters when our store bought supply ran out.

I usually try to buy hard candy or anything that's sour or hot, but Walmart only had chocolate today.

YOU DON'T LIKE SNICKERS????!!

My kids aren't allowed to eat hard candy, gum or lollipops, so I'm probably going to throw all that stuff in the trick or treaters' bowl. At least, that's how I justified it to myself when I started eating the candy I bought— if I eat all the chocolate, at least there'll be other candy for the neighborhood kids...

Yup. Let's say, they don't like me. They are a perfectly fine candy bar.

You can have them, Janie. On Halloween both my kids got huge buckets full of candy, and after I picked out all the stuff I won't let them eat, they both had candy for dinner. I ate all the gum, many many Almond Joys, and sent the rest in to work with my hubby. I don't want to see any more candy for a LOOOOONNNNNG time!
