    I live in the south, Texas, and the cheapos give out pecans.....Most people have pecan trees, so its the inexpensive way of treating.........

    My favorites were anything with chocolate. Smarties were interesting. Heath bars or now Skor were the BOMB. Necco Wafers let us play "Korrupted Kommunion!"

    I despised the popcorn balls in colored cellophane. Hard candies, marshmallow anything, and the multicolored bonbon-licorice doo-dads were foul.

    And I for one confess my addiction to High Fructose Corn Syrup and cannot avoid eating candy corn. It is my gateway drug.

    I trick or treated in the late 50's and early 60's. I always remember that the lady across the street (Frieda) handed out regular candy to most everybosdy, but when me and my siblings knocked on her door, she made us Ice Cream cones.

    Can't do that now. If you give out any candy that is not in a sealed package, it's going to get tossed.

    It's all about the chocolate! Anything else isn't worthy enough to be labeled candy.
