Kids Rank Halloween Candy

 Back in the olden days there were no "Fun Size" candy bars, they didn't come out until 1968 and for the most part you took what was offered which was often popcorn balls or caramel apples, it was rare to get an actual candy bar. With that said kids today expect their tastes to be catered to and anything remotely healthy like raisins end up in the trash. Below find the list of the best and worst offerings according to the kids. 

 The Best: Zaeem, age 11: “Full-sized Twix or Hershey’s bar.”

Sawyer, age 11: “Sour Patch Kids, because they’re really yummy.”

Penny, age 7: “Candy corn, ’cause they taste really good.”

Joey, age 10: “A king-size Crunch bar is the sign of a great house. The rarest candy is Sugar Babies — I’ve never had one in my whole entire life. Gummy Krabby Patties would also be good.”

Musa, age 5: “Lollipops or Reese’s peanut butter cup Iselle, age 9: “There is a house in our neighborhood that sets up a table with whole bags of a single brand of candy and kids get to pick the one they want, though I watched a kid choose a whole bag of Dots over Smarties last year.”

Theo, age 10: “King-size Hershey’s, king-size anything!”s.”

The Worst:  Zaeem: “The worst thing to pass out are toothbrushes and raisins.”

Margot, age 7: “In my opinion, Warheads are the worst to give out because they are too sour and most kids don’t like them.”

Sawyer: “100 Grand bars are awful. I got so many of them one Halloween and they tasted awful.”

Kana, age 7: “Zombie Sour Patch Kids because they look weird and taste sour.”

Joey: “Twizzlers or licorice sticks. They suck. No one likes them.”

Miranda, age 11: “NEVER DENTAL FLOSS.”

Elena, age 8: “Fruit, raisins, veggies. No one wants healthy stuff.”

Logan, age 5: “Something out of the garbage.”

Aya, age 7: “Those candies that are hard and I don’t like them and I spit them in the trash.”

Kind of makes me want to hand out raisins!
