eat some candy corn

Hooray!

I was surprised to find that wax is actually way down at the bottom of the ingredients list. First three ingredients: “Sugar, Corn Syrup, Confections’s Glaze”. All types of sugar.

Hey, at least it’s fat free!

but I won’t be doing it this year due to primarily this goal and this goal and this goal. I might do this next year…maybe. (Hopefully I’ll think candy is not worth it by then, though. We can always hope.)

at Halloween time. But now I’ve defeated my sweet tooth, and don’t have much interest in candy at all. Yay! My sons (all tall, skinny young men) were reading calories on candy in the store yesterday. I’ve never even read the calories on any of it before, and I was totally shocked. 8 chocolate bars is 4800 calories… that’s more than 2 whole day’s worth of calories. Shocking! I’m just glad that I’ve weaned myself off candy. So, no more candy corn for me at Halloween, if I can help it.

...mysteriously jumped into my shopping cart¹ the last time I was at the store. As a result, I am currently eating candy corn until I’m sick.

¹ Note that it’s “cart” not “trolley”.

Edit: picture added for those poor souls who do not have candy corn in their country.
