Halloween Candy to Trash

Better late than never, and I've been meaning to post this, but life has been busy!

 

This is just an idea of unsafe candy, that needs to be thrown away... lollipops that can be unwrapped and re-wrapped, foil candies, Tootsie rolls, boxed candy that can be re-glued after being opened, and  gum.

 

 

I know boxed candy seems like it is safe, but there it no way to truly tell if it was carefully opened, than glued shut...

 

When I was a kid Pixie Stix were soaked in things, dried, than handed out to kids... I toss all I find in the trash to stay on the safe side.

 

To be perfectly honest, and I know there are many parents that get upset, but to safest thing is to throw all candy from strangers away and hit the 50% off sales the day after. I know some people get in an uproar because they actually bought the candy, and we don't buy the cheap stuff (not many trick or treat'ers so we get stuck with leftovers)... but it would not hurt my feelings if other parents did the same. It makes no sense to give something than dictate what a person does with it.

 

This just gives an idea of how to go through Halloween candy, what to throw away, and what to keep... look for pin holes, glue spots, and anything partially open... never eat it while still going door to door!
