Anything that isn’t candy, like those plastic spider rings. Those are even worse than raisins or root beer barrels. And can’t adults figure out they are useless after Halloween is over? Fruit of any kind. Even caramel apples, because they are bulky. _ANY_ written material, whether it is Jesus-related, or “Say ‘No’ to Drugs,” or “Stay in School,” or whatever. Exception for a black and orange fortune cookie I got once, with an actually funny joke in it. Any candy labeled “nut, dairy and gluten-free.” Sugar-free candy. “Candy” made with carob instead of chocolate, and fruit juice “sweetened” that came from a health food store. Circus peanuts. ---

Even good candy is not worth it if the grown-up makes you feel the “bowl of brains” (spaghetti), or “eyeballs” (peeled grapes) before they will give it to you. ---

> [@Doctor\_Jackson](#): > > Miniature sex toys (no one gives out full size to trick or treaters) Opinion varies on what constitutes “fun-size” for toys. I would give out cheap, plastic whistles. That way, their parents can enjoy it too. ---
