Title: PoTD: Did (do?) you save your Halloween treats or gobble them up right away
Post by: snoorkel on October 30, 2011, 10:19:25 PM
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.

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

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)

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.

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

Oh I haven't actually been trick or treating since I was like 15... My parents usually send me a lunch bag with some candy in it though...

Which I primarily use to chase liquor with, the new meaning of the season hocuspocus;

I dunno, I always want to be able to have candy when I actually crave it. So I usually put off eating it and then forget about it. I'm like a squirrel with nuts girl;

I ate all the good candy fast and the rest lasted until January or so. Now I just buy big bags of assorted candy and eat that.

I don't think I could ever eat that much candy in a few days. I definitely kept it but... But I've always lived with my brothers who like candy more than me so I think candy just goes fast.
