Hallowe'en Candy Overload
Oct. 31st, 2006 04:02 pmEvery year,
kent4str and I have the same debate about candy.
There aren't a lot of kids in our neighbourhood so there's not much trick-or-treating. Still, there are a few visitors so we always have some candy on hand, just in case. I argue that we should have a small inventory of candy we personally like as we'll be stuck with the leftovers and I can't bear throwing anything out.
kent4str maintains that if we only distribute candy popular with kids but stuff we ourselves don't especially like, we'll be less likely to stuff our own faces with the leftovers. Thus, we now ask you, the voters, in yet another pointless poll:
[Poll #857534]
In any case, the Coffee Crisp bars are mine, ya little twerps.
Additional Hallowe'en candy advice is always welcome.

Now, here's an idea!

Lots, in fact. At the Chocolate Spa in Hershey, clients bathe in whipped cocoa, bask in the glow of Tootsie Roll-flavored candles and breathe brownie-batter-scented steam.
It goes on to describe some wonderful sounding (but probably not tasty) uses.
