The Middle School Mind

2.7 Allergy Safe Halloween Candy Pt 1

Listen Later

On this episode of The Middle School Mind, we review Halloween candies that are safe for kids with peanut and tree nut food allergies. Halloween is a fun time for kids, and since we have family members with severe food allergies, we hand out peanut and tree nut free candies on Halloween.

On this episode, we pull random allergy-safe candy from a hat and we taste test each candy and tell you if we would Keep this candy, Trade this candy or Chuck this candy.

Here are the candies we review on this episode:

Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers Mini

  • Son thinks Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers all taste the same
  • Father notes these have a little sugar and look like the letter S with half the crawler one flavor and the other half another flavor
  • Son would TRADE Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers

    • Laffy Taffy

    • Each Laffy Taffy comes with a handful of groan-worthy dad jokes
    • Son thinks this has a weird texture with smooth and hard spots and didn’t finish his piece
    • Both Son and Father would CHUCK Laffy Taffy since there’s not a lot of street value to these candies

      • Jolly Rancher Stix

      • Son didn’t enjoy his but it wasn’t the worst candy
      • Father does not like Jolly Rancher since it stuck to his teeth and he can’t immediately chew this Jolly Rancher Stix
      • Son would TRADE this candy since we think enough people like Jolly Rancher candy

        • Nerds

        • Nerds are a classic candy!
        • We both agree that Nerds are a KEEPER.

          • Milk Duds

          • Son tries Milk Duds for the first time
          • Father thinks Milk Duds are duds
          • The caramel is chewy and the chocolate is meh
          • We agree that Milk Duds are a TRADE if you can find a willing partner (sucker)

            • Rolo

            • Son talks about his memories of Rolos that he finds in his stockings every Christmas at his grandparents house
            • Father thinks Rolos are what the Milk Duds creators wanted Milk Duds to turn into
            • We both agree that Rolos are a KEEP in every Halloween bag

              • We have a lot more candy to go and we don’t want to ruin our dinner. So we need to break this up into a follow up episode!
