I'm glad the $10 you spend on candy will result in $1000 in cavity fillings and root canals at the dentist..

Halloween is the only reason I had children.
They go collect candy for me and I siphon it off like a mob boss embezzling cash from a casino.

Candy is gross. I don't understand the appeal once someone's over the age of 12ish.
I love candy like a child. Last halloween I didn't have a single piece cause I was fresh off a significant weight loss.
There have been a few times in the past year that I've mowed a bag of jelly beans or Australian licorice like it's my last meal but overall I've cut it down to almost zero

Black licorice the real deal, yeah. Not so much candy as a licorice fruit roll up, kinda.
I forgot I do like spice drops, too.
This was my take my whole adult life. Maybe a Snickers and a coke for an energy blast once a year but I was indifferent to ward dessert and all of it, kids stuff. Until, January 2015.
Gave up Beer, I guess for candy all too often.
yes. My parents used to take my Sister and I growing up and about 8-9 years ago we started going at Thanksgiving every other year or so with our kids. Chicken dinner is still there, just a long wait for it!
that's funny - i literally can remember being about 12 and thinking " when i grow up, i can buy all the candy i want!"
Kids stopped coming to my house (well, they don't come anyway 'cause I live out where the boogie stops and the woogie begins). But they do say "TRICK or treat"...
I'm off sugar for the most part but still have dark chocolate once a week. Some pink himalayan salt. I found a brownie recipe that is so good. 1 cup sweet potato. 1 cup almond butter. 1 cup maple syrup. 1 cup dark chocolate chips. 1/2 cup cacao powder. 1/2 cup walnuts. Mix together and bake at 350 for 40 minutes. So damn good.
That sounds good. Naturally sourced (maple)sugar is still sugar though please move this to the yolo thread.
I do dark chocolate to feel a little less dirty about it sometimes.
Sometimes when I kook I'll use sugar/brown sugar in dishes that typically don't call for it, and coffee, those are my secret ingredients, pineapple works in mysterious ways as well, and peanut butter. Sugar comes at you from all directions you can't put your guard down if you're like me.

I was eating chocolate covered roasted coffee beans from Trader Joes. Then I looked at the nutrition facts and was shocked at the saturated fat and sugar numbers.
Holy Carp! That sparked a long buried memory for me... we used to egg the houses, after hours, that gave out that crap candy, always leaving a Snickers bar o the doorstep first, so they'd "know why they got hit"
