The Halloween season is all about costumes, scary movies, trick-or-treating, and haunted houses. These activities are fun, but what many people love most of all about the holiday is the candy! Even if you no longer go out and trick-or-treat, many still love to indulge in the decadent, sugary goods, and use Halloween as their excuse.
