Where’d you get all those? I got mine at Costco and they only had two kinds, I’d like more variety.

There are so few kids out trick or treating these days that it's really not that expensive to do this now, too. I will never get tired of hearing excited kids say "THIS HOUSE HAS BIG BARS!!"

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I received more trick treaters this year then ever before, and still have a ton of it left. Bet next year I will get more since I will now be the house with the big bars.

I like raisins. When did people decide raisins were bad. Are you mad for some raisin?

[–] Furball@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For some raisin people prefer sugary candy on Halloween

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Y'all are really raisin the bar on us with these comments about currant events.

[–] tamal3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Raisins be raisin people's blood sugar too, though. Just look at one.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

I love raisins.

People who give raisins on Halloween deserve to have their house egged.

I used to get small raisin box as a kid, they were actually good. Haven't seen them for a long time. And molasses toffee fun for sticking your mouth shut.

Is this sugar industry propaganda? Raisins are actually healthier.

[–] Astronauticaldb@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago

Isn't Halloween about getting the most sugary, most unhealthy candy though?

This is why I hand out celery

You know those awful peanut butter candies that came in either black or orange wrappers? My parents bought a giant bag of them in bulk and gave them out every Halloween. From the same bag. For like five years.

This disgusting crap.

Now here is a Halloween pro tip: Go to a site like Oriental Trading Co. and get a bunch of cheap toys and plastic rings and temporary tattoos and such and give those out instead of candy. Even the teenagers love it. Kids are always excited because they get candy from everyone else, so we give them something cool and different. We have heard, "yes! It's the toy house!" more than once.

Those are some of my favorites! I love peanut butter anything, even salt-water taffy. 😃

I would buy these myself even outside Halloween if I knew anywhere that ever sold 'em.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

They wouldn't be your favorites after they had been sitting in an open bag in a damp basement's so-called pantry for five years.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 7 points 1 week ago

Raisin boxes are fun though!

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Something about them makes me think of dead spiders
