Halloween candy scares parents more than any horror film

An approach to Halloween candy that I really like: Ellyn Satter

Great link! I adore Ellyn Satter--she can come to my house for dinner and dessert whenever she wants.

At our house, the hands down favorite Halloween quote this year is this:

"The scariest part of Halloween is giving away all your Reese's Cups!"
--Ad Team for Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Amen!

(I was tickled to find that E.S. advocates the same approach to Halloween we've used here for years. And it still amazes me that after the initial candyfest I'm throwing away abandoned Halloween loot three weeks later because the owner has lost interest, and I'm starting to worry about attracting ants!)

Everything in moderation, including moderation!
