This is interesting, because I gave out Nerds gummy clusters and a few other candies last Halloween, and they were not a popular choice (I live in a neighborhood with a lot of kids!). I always give out gummy/sugary non chocolate candies, and the kids seem to mainly care about how many they can take, not what they are.

I have kids, too, and am sure they act the same as most, but I am amazed at how rude many kids are on Halloween - I should correct to say they don’t say anything explicitly rude, but most (most!) don’t say thank you and a lot don’t even say Trick or Treat/Happy Halloween/whatever.
