At my place, we’re huge Halloween enthusiasts, embodying the spirit of a classic sitcom couple — just your average, hardworking married folks who indulge a bit too much each October for the sake of fun and glory. With this festive dedication comes a responsibility to warn fellow adults about the horror of handing out subpar treats to trick-or-treaters.
Not every household can afford to be the one that gives out full-sized candy bars — and trust me, we’re not those people either. However, you can still avoid being the laughingstock of your neighborhood by steering clear of these dreadful Halloween treats that are akin to a blemish on an otherwise pristine costume.
- Cow Tales
These sugary sticks look like something you’d rather not see on your plate, and their taste isn’t much better. - Butterscotch Candies
Oh, butterscotch, you’re like the candy version of a retirement home. If Grandma were out collecting candy, maybe you’d be a hit, but otherwise, no thanks. - Fruit Snacks
This isn’t lunchtime; it’s Halloween! Kids deserve a sugary surprise, not something they find in their lunch boxes. Organic treats are nice, but they scream “I don’t want to spoil your fun.” - Good and Plenty
They look like candy but taste like medicine. If it resembles anything from a pharmacy, keep it off the Halloween list. - Jujubes
Yikes. Just, yikes. - Fast Food Coupons
Really? Sending kids home with homework? Just give them some proper candy, like a chocolate bar. - Necco Wafers
No one wants to munch on colored chalk or glorified Tums. If it looks medicinal, it doesn’t belong in a trick-or-treat bag. - Peanut Butter Kisses
Would you even eat these? Plus, they can be a nightmare for kids with allergies. Halloween is supposed to be fun, not dangerous. - Pennies
Why make kids pay for their own candy? Tossing pennies at those who give out butterscotch would be more fun. - Raisins
It’s one night a year; let the kids enjoy some sweets, not dried fruit! - Toothbrushes
Nope. Just no. - Tootsie Pops
You’re too cheap if you think handing these out is acceptable. Splurge a little on some real chocolate! - Whoppers
Chocolate-covered sand? No thanks!
