Interesting. Where did you see this?

My buddy has 2 kids (2 and like 1 or something) and he and the missus let him eat a bit then made up some story about leaving it out and a witch turning it into a toy. Sure enough, the candy was replaced by a toy by morning, though the actual story of daddy and "uncle Nate" eating all of it remains a secret to this day.

We have two little ones (4 and 2) so we don't let them have any of the gummy like candies. We allow them to have a piece after dinner and a piece maybe throughout if they clean up their messes or do something.
we took a little baggy for ourselves with all the jolly ranchers and candies like that in it.

No razor blades, no pot, no acid, no prescription drugs....the only case of Halloween candy being tainted was a father who killed his son by poisoning the Halloween candy after it had been collected so he could collect insurance money.Whew...for a minute I was thinking I was the worst parent in the world. Didn't inspect any of it.

Just say you knew that fact beforehand and you can be one of those parents who has all the facts
