Happy Halloween, Mamas!
Yes, the number one sugary holiday is here again. At this point all costumes have been assembled, Trick-or-Treating arrangements have been made, and candy to distribute has been purchased.
Now, as moms, we wait. We wait until our children’s overtired, over sugared heads hit the pillow. And, then we get to work… raiding our kids’ candy haul and ruining our waistlines.
We’ve polled our contributors and we’ve come up with a definitive Top Ten list of the most steal-able Halloween candies. Without further adieu…
10. Smarties
9. Peanut M&M’s
8. Reese’s Pieces
7. Nerds
6. Milk Duds
5. Skittles
4. Snickers
3. Butterfinger
2. Twix
And the #1, almost unanimous, most sought after Halloween candy for our moms: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
True story, when I was a kid, for years, my mom insisted I didn’t like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups so I gave them all to her each year. It was only in my college years that I realized they were, in fact, delicious.
I think it’s safe to say we’re big time chocolate fans over here at Ur Basic Mom (hint-hint… Christmas is coming).
Let us know in the comments which candy you most look forward to nabbing from your kids on Halloween!
