The argument that Halloween candy is just for one night is total BS. 1) kids collect enough candy to last months and months 2) the amount of sugar kids consume (mainly high fructose corn syrup) is astronomical today and it bleeds from one holiday to the next with birthday parties and other special occasions on between. 3) Candy is not food. It is directly responsible (along with soda and other processed foods) for diabetes, obesity, fatty liver disease, hyperactivity, digestive problems, etc... By not allowing your kids to eat big corporate candy (m&ms, snickers, Reeses, Hersheys, nerds, sweet tarts, and on and on) you are NOT depriving your kids -- you are protecting them. Just like not allowing them to play in the street. The end.
