I'll say right off the bat that the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup is my favorite. Followed closely by the Hershey's chocolate. That's milk chocolate not dark chocolate or white chocolate, because gross.
I can tell you another thing I don't like. And that would be circus peanuts. Nasty orange marshmallow wanna-bees. Followed by peeps. Or anything with goo in the middle. Such as chocolate covered cherries.
Now I love chocolate, and I love cherries. However when they put them together and put that mystery goo in the center, it just makes no sense at all to me.
I'm going to steal this. I heard someone say recently, (Jimmy Fallon I think), it's funny that you teach your kids never to take candy from strangers. But on Halloween that little rule goes out the door. You go knock on the door and ask a total stranger for candy one day out of the year.
I think maybe Halloween has always been my favorite holiday because it was the no muss, no fuss holiday. There's no reason to argue, there's no reason to fight. Not really a big meal for the day. Just dressing up and having fun. And that's fun any day of the year.
I was always one to make my own costume and I hand out the good stuff. No crappy candy at this house, no sir. Candy bars and yes, I give out toys as well. Just in case the candy can't be enjoyed due to food allergies or diabetes or whatever.
Holidays should be enjoyed and celebrated. Especially ones involving free candy.
Until next time,
eat well.
