One piece that is missing from this discussion is the insidious activities of the Nestle corporation in their promotion of baby formula in the third world. Also, most cacao beans (unless they are organic or fair trade) are picked by enslaved children who live in horrible conditions. Is it worth ignoring this atrocities so our kids can "have fun"? Is it no longer possible for kids to have fun unless they eat a bunch of candy? I love Halloween, the costumes, the jack-o-lanterns, toasting pumpkin seeks, drinking hot cider, getting that special spooky feeling of walking outside in the dark . . . What could be more fun than that? Thanks for putting together this list of alternatives.

We had some left over and handed them out last Halloween, the little kiddies were so excited for something different, so I decided to start selling papercaft handouts for others who are looking to hand out something new.

It was kind of strange. All of the ideas above are wonderful. I love Trader Joe's suckers. They are all natural and it the only sack I pick up for special events. And that is rarely. My kid gets to eat a few treats and then the bag vanishes. Call me awful the the cost of him getting addicted to even more junk is just not worth it to me.
