use this thread to post the WORST things you can get while you're out trick-or-treating on Halloween. as a childless grown man, I have not gone trick-or-treating in over 15 years. however, I still have very strong opinions on this subject (I am morbidly obese). with that, here are my picks for Worst Things to Get While Trick-or-Treating    these are disgusting and taste like they were manufactured in 1847 like the wrapper says.   if you give out fruit on Halloween, then gently caress YOU. at least dip it caramel first, you monster.   has anyone actually ever enjoyed eating one of these? same with candy corn tbh. not a fan. people who give these out are great targets for egging and TP'ing.   really? you can't even buy a single Tootsie Roll (an epic, God-tier Halloween treat) with this much change. this is honestly more of an inconvenience than not getting anything at all. TIP: use a slingshot to shoot the change back at the people who gave it to you, or their windows.   let's face it - getting this while you're out trick-or-treating is a very quick way to ruin your Halloween, and possibly the rest of your waking life. definitely try to avoid getting this.   if you give out toothpaste / floss / toothbrushes / etc. you are the worst kind of person in the world, the lowest of the low. absolute scum, even hardened criminals in prison have more dignity than this, and if they found out you did this poo poo, they'd apply "prison justice" and rightfully end your life. there is a special place in hell reserved for people like you.   i already mentioned fresh fruit but i'm listing raisins separately because they're in a whole other category of bullshit. you deserve to be hanged if you give out raisins. you know what's loving bullshit? expecting a nice Snickers or Reese's, or even something fruity like Starburst or Skittles, but instead getting a box of withered, flavorless grapes. they couldn't have even sprung for golden raisins.  post your WORST Things to Get While Trick-or-Treating below

I like necco wafers, they make me think of my grandma. The real answer is circus peanuts and wax lips, those things suck. I'd rather eat dog food.

I used to like change because I could go to Ayottes and buy penny candy. Thanks old French grandmas. What I hated was a twisted-up Saran Wrap with a couple of ribbon candies.

Those awful molasses taffy candies which came in black & orange wrappers and were always rock-hard. You never see them outside of halloween, and I remember them chiefly because they were untradeable between my brother and I which meant they were ammunition.

When I was a kid trick or treating, this fat, goony looking guy stepped out onto his porch and looked around all conspiratorial like, whispering "use these wisely" when he gave us boxes of raisins. It was pretty funny, I couldn't even be mad.

That weird shiny ribbon candy that’s always in a solid clump in an old-fashioned candy dish at grandma’s house. Pretty sure that candy’s been sitting in that dish since 1971 and never deteriorates. Dust it off, ice pick it, and hand it out to unsuspecting trick-or-treaters.

There was one house in my neighborhood that always handed out lovely little two packs of popeye candy cigarettes, but they’d always have three or four full size Coffee Crisp they’d give out to the best costumes, and I’m definitely not still mad to have never gotten one.

I was trick or treating when I was like 10 and one guy said trick. I had no tricks so I improvised by kicking him in the nuts. He tried to kick me back and I ran away.

Bazooka gum was the worst thing I would regularly get, I think. The gum itself was unchewable and the comics were either stupid or inscrutable. I always wondered how that kid lost his eye though. Edit: okay this one's pretty good  B

The worst was getting whole dollar bills. It put the idea in my head that those are a thing I could get. And it made me upset no one else was just handing me cash. Why couldn't adults understand? You give me cash for walking around, and I go buy the candy I actually want!

Circle Nine posted:we got a lot of the big popcorn balls where i grew up and i always really liked them, please be nice to them I came here to post about Bit o Honey, i think they're close enough to mary janes they can be considered some kind of category of candy. Tootsie-roll-adjacent? In general as nasty as necco wafers are, at least they're edible. All these weird rear end caramel-toosie roll-adjacent things are tooth cracking hard. I loving loathe candy corn but it's at least good candy trading currency.
