Worst Halloween Candy or trick or treat item

[Jdarg]

From a mom point of view (cause I'll be the one cleaning up the mess), anything with that sour powder stuff- the stix, baby bottles, lick'm stix, etc.
ARGHHHH! It goes everywhere!

Then, one year my son came home with one of those "single serving" box of cereals, and a can of pop, and a trial size tube of tooth paste! Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrell when you run out of candy![/QUOTE]


Fun thread !! I always hated those two candies as well.

LL: Yeah, I remember those popcorn balls too. We had lots of homemade items in our area (baked cookies, popcorn balls, candy apples)

The all time worst halloween candy to me is candy corn and those yucky "Maryjanes" that come in those waxy black or red wrappers. What's yours?

Definitely agree with you on the Maryjanes--ick! I used to despise candy corn until I found out if you eat one with a peanut M&M it tastes just like a tiny Snickers bar. For that, they redeemed themselves!

Ugh, in total agreement with you on this one, jdarg! The baby bottles are one check-out treat the kids are never allowed!

The ones I saw were packaged from a company and had halloween themed wrapping with bats on the front.

Oh, I LOVE these! Thanks for reminding me--I haven't bought a single one yet this year!

Great tip Peapod...now I'll have to try it!

Wait 'til you try it--it's freaky! The original "recipe" is one piece of candy corn, a peanut and a plain M&M, but the shortcut is easier! :clap_1:

I saw a lady on a local cooking program that was dipping those orange circus peanuts in chocolate.
