Whatcha handing out?
The kids get trucked into our neighborhood, so we have a mix of chocolate miniatures, Sour Patch Kids and, my fave even if they label me as an Old Timer, Tootsie Rolls.

HOW ARE THOSE DELICIOUS STRAWBERRY CANDIES IN "THE PSYCHOPATH" CATEGORY?! MY CAPS-LOCK IS INTENTIONAL AND MY RAGE KNOWS NO BOUNDS.
Edit: I feel I may have inadvertently admitted something about myself...
We don't. Our road is to dangerous and sparsely populated.
That said, the youngest is sick, because it's a holiday and life hates her, so we had her trick or treat around the house today instead of going out in the cold rain tonight in her grandma's neighborhood. So orange pop, full size candy bars, sour patch zombies, and Boyer peanut butter cups because Reeses are gross.
We like to mix things up here on the Warship, even though, as a corner house facing the short side of the block, we don't get as many kids.
(I fully expect to get TP'ed by whatever poor kid reaches in and ends up with that sorry Starburst mixed in there)
My wife just angry texted me a photo of this years M and M treat.
Stealing from candy from babies is what that is.

Admitted what? That you, my good man, know a good candy when you taste one? I love those things and have to fight my kids for them.
And Starburst are amazing. As are Sweet-Tarts. You can keep those nasty sorta peanut-butter flavored things in the orange and black waxy wrappers, though. yuck!
A year ago my sister-in-law moved out leaving can goods I wasn't going to eat.
I dropped them into the 8th grade neighbor kid's bag then figured he chucked them onto somebody's roof.
In reply to wae :
It has nothing to do with quality, and everything to do with quantity.
There are only (2) undersized "Fruit Chews" in that wrapper.
Those Starburst bug me because the time needed to unwrap them is 2X the time required to eat them. I can never get ahead of the game.
First world problems?

I don't make the rules, I only drive the truck.
But, yeah, I'd eat one of those strawberries.
96 full size KitKats and a few bags of the "fun size" ones for the stragglers. Normally, we have 100-140 trick or treaters, but I am wondering if Monday Night Football being both Ohio teams is going to cause it to get more sparse than usual near the end, as parents drag their kids back home to the TV.
I like those black and orange wrapped peanut taffys and I don't care who knows it.
Salty, savory and just slightly sweet. Right up my alley. Pretty much every other candy can berk off.
Of all the photos on this page the Beenie Weenies are probably the only thing I'd eat.
If I was living in Canada, I feel I'd have to give these out for heritage reasons.
My sister is giving out full size Mars bars, she must be rolling in money. We won't see any kids here, we're too remote. Kids go to more target-rich environments.
We can all agree that Hershey Special Darks are the best, right?

Recipe tip: Grate a Special Dark bar into tiny pieces and throw that in with any normal brownie mix to vastly improve them.
As a public service we take all the dark chocolate and keep them in house to prevent kids from becoming addicts.
In reply to eastsideTim :
That sounds yummy.

Just say no, kids.
No handing out candy for me. Hiding at the bar until the kids are off the street.

The best thing Special Dark has going for it is that it's the closest thing to real chocolate that Hershey's makes.
Halloween is tonight, right?
6:00 and not one kid yet. :(
5 pounds of Atomic Fireballs. Well, OK, probably more like 4 pounds at this point, because I ordered them a couple weeks ago and apparently my daughter likes them too. :)
Gotta keep some Cheapy and Psycopath category candy for the kids who half ass their costumes.
In the 5ish years we've been here, we've never had trick or treaters. I don't get it. Its a good neighborhood, no real issues. So I didn't buy any candy.
I'll leave this here, though
