PoTD: Did (do?) you save your Halloween treats or gobble them up right away

[snoorkel]

I figure there are two types of kids, those who save some of their Halloween/Christmas candy for months and eat it throughout the year, and those who binge and have none left after a few days. Which were you?

I always saved my candy in a stash under my bed, for times when the going got rough. Not like I didn't eat any of it when I got it, but I probably saved more than half every holiday.

want candy now gimme gimme

old candy is gross

[bluaki]

Like many other items, some kinds of candy are less appealing after time passes
and I prefer not to get ants everywhere all year

So I always eat it within a couple weeks

[YPrrrr]

I always save it until it's bad. I probably still have candy from christmas 95

People 16 years of age or older here are banned from trick or treating.

I usually saved it

At this point in my life I just eat the candy my mom buys for trick-or-treaters before Halloween.

I haven't been trick or treating in 3 or 4 years, but I always used to save probably 3/4th of it in a sealed bag in a drawer in my closet. Then like once every 6 weeks or so I would discover that it was there and eat a few pieces. That way it always lasted the whole year.

I always ate all my easter candy within the week though, because it was a much smaller amount.

i usually ate my candy pretty fast

i still do, actually. not that i go trick-or-treating, but i always get a share of the candy that my mom just buys for the family (and to a lesser degree, for the few trick-or-treaters we get)

[snoorkel]

...you guys aren't going trick-or-treating this year?

More savers than gobblers on Boyah, I wouldn't have guessed

[Samus Aran]

Is it really that surprising that people as old as we are wouldn't normally go trick-or-treating?

I kinda quit doing that at like age 15.

dude I'm fucking 20

Well it depends really. Usually I'd eat a pretty good amount every day, but usually enough to last me for around a week or 2. At the same time, I only got a moderate amount of candy. My step brother lived in a nicer neighborhood and being in a big city he could go around to more places, so he always ended up with a metric shitton of candy. He would eat a lot of candy every day and still have enough for like 2 months.
I wouldn't want my candy to last longer than a couple months though, because some of it gets stale after a while.

I haven't been trick-or-treating since I was 13, and even then it was only for line 15 minutes and I got bored and felt uncomfortable knocking on peoples doors because I was all alone and I only did it so I could see a girl I liked for a second, I made my costume the day of but it turned out pretty good (I was batman). So really 12 was my last time.

But I like easter candy a lot mmmm
