Poisoned candy myths are mostly urban legends about malevolent strangers intentionally hiding poisons, drugs, or sharp objects such as razor blades in candy, which they then distribute with the intent of harming random children, especially during Halloween trick-or-treating. These myths, originating in the United States, serve as modern cautionary tales to children and parents and repeat two themes that are common in urban legends: danger to children and contamination of food.[1]

As a responsible parent, and now grandparent, I can't risk that these were hoaxes. I feel it is necessary to inspect and CONFISCATE candy after trick or treating...just to be sure!

I used to refer to that as the kids having to pay their taxes and I was the taxman. At an early age they learned to despise the taxman.
My son likes to weigh his haul. :lol:
Then he sorts by type. Then he announces to his mother what she is/is not allowed to have. :lol2:

This seems like the most appropriate thread:

Heading to Alaska for Halloween with the grandkids. It will be no higher than 30 degrees at trick or treat time...which I assume will start at dark around 3 PM. I will be Mr. Potato Head (which has its benefits - I can say whatever I want and don't have to be politically correct with the in-laws - it is Toy Story themed and they will be lame versions of characters - they lack imagination and Mrs. Altitude lives for this ****...and to embarrass the in-laws!!!). But, you may be able to trick or treat for many, many hours due to the early darkness...this is a plus.

My son's neighborhood has too many liberals - they are way too close to downtown Anchorage. I told him we need to plan to get out away from the **** - who wants pathetic liberal candy and/or lectures because Mr. Potato Head is wearing a MAGA cap. Gotta get to the burbs where Margaret is giving out full sized Snickers!

My daughter-in-law is a dentist, so we have the floss and toothpaste covered - so hopefully we can ignore any *******s that present that crap!
