Same as Aaron's. :) I like to chill the Twix before eating them and toss the tootsie rolls.
Oh and I also tossed those horrible peanut butter kisses that people insist on handing out to kids. It shocks and amazes me that those things are still around with all the fancy candies out there now.

I am candy-less this Halloween. :( I recently got diagnosed with an allergy to all nuts, and it seems like everything out there is of the "processed on the same equipment as nuts" variety. Any fellow allergics want to share the candy that they consider safe?

Heh, I like those peanut butter kisses, though they weren't a super-favorite. If I could get my hands on them without resorting to mail order, I'd probably buy them occasionally.
Instant trade-aways...marshmallow ANYTHING. Hershey's Special Dark minis. I also always disliked those Necco wafers.

Kit-Kat and Ferrero Rocher are my favorite...at least in the sealed, pre-packaged, available in any supermarket category that is passed out on Halloween.
