The Ulitmate Halloween Dilemma

Three bags of Halloween candy are sitting on top of my fridge right now.
They are calling my name.......

So my question is this.
Who eats more of your kids trick-or-treat candy?
Your kids?
Or you?

I don't think I even need to tell you the answer for over here...... they will be lucky if there are a few dum dums and a bit o' honey by the time they get home from school.

    You crack me up. But since you asked. I am guilty. I have to say when I watched Halloween night what everyone what putting into their buckets I would get quite excited to see a snickers or other yummy candy bar go in. I especially love the ones with nuts. It's easier to justify eating them Mason's allergic.

    I definitely eat more than Noah, because he forgets. But not Isaac.

    It's obviously much too wasteful to just throw out the candy ;), so I'm willing to sacrifice my health for the health of my children's growing bodies. We all know sugar is bad for them, and doesn't chocolate stunt their growth (OK, I just made that up so I wouldn't feel guilty about taking the GOOD stuff). So, being the "take it for the team" mom that I am, I will eat 6 pieces of candy for each piece I allow them to eat, and die an early (but satiated) death for the good of the family. PS I also have a very capable teammate named Gary.

    I am with you Debbie, times is tough! Wasting candy would be a slap in our desperate economies face. Waste not, want not, right?

    That's hilarious. Dum dums and Bit O Honey- those are the worst! I'm not a huge candy fan, but ohhhhhhh Reeses. I think the Reeses really are calling me.

    My kids are happy with pixy stix - and that's the way I like it. They can have the suckers too - just let me have the chocolate. I have my own special bowl that I keep handy to throw in whatever I see that I want. It's like a candy tax.

    Em has already forgotten about it! Gotta love a 2 year old. I eat 20 for every 1 she gets. I'm glad I'm not alone in this!
