    You are better off giving trick-or-treaters non-edibles, rather than candy. A lot of parents don’t trust candy from strangers and will chuck all the money you saved in the trash.

    If it’s some sort of toy, then the parents are more likely to allow them to keep it. Buying crayons in bulk is always a safe bet. I am sure somewhere on Amazon you can pick up a good deal on those.

    Your premise doesn’t make sense.

    If you’re a parent, and are taking your child out to “trick or treat,” it follows that the candy has already been factored into the equation. Parents don’t take their kids out with the expectation of receiving non-edibles.

    What has become more popular around where I live is “trunk-or-treat” sponsored by local area churches. A group of cars open their trunks in the church parking lot and candy is handed out from there. Parents are more likely to trust candy handed out to their kids by other members of their faith based group.

    I suppose, according to your original argument, that faith based groups should only hand out non-edibles here as well. After all, since you suggest not trusting “strangers” in the neighborhood in terms of candy, then let’s extend this mistrust to church organizations and mandate non-edibles.

    A lot of parents don’t trust candy from strangers and will chuck all the money you saved in the trash.

    — This is why parents should inspect the candy.
