Hallowe'en anyone?

One data point. We weighed the candy my kids hauled home this Halloween and it was right at 20 pounds total. Mostly Hershey and Mars products.

My neighbor keeps a pretty accurate tally of the number of kids and had over 300 come to their door. At 10 pounds per kid that’s 1.5 tons of candy just in our little neighborhood.

Maybe more shocking is the fact that it is mostly gone already at our house.
