Top 5 Best Halloween Candies

The Orlando Sentinel has come out with a list of their top 5 best Halloween candies. By "best" they mean on the lighter/healthier side. Instead of full-size Hershey's bars they have come up with their 5 treats that aren't as "goulish" as the rest.

1. Skittles - there are a rainbow of colors to choose from and only 2 grams of fat
2. Tootsie Rolls - these treats have been a favorite since 1896 and 1 small piece has 0 grams of fat
3. Jolly Ranchers - these candies come in a variety of sweet flavors and are available sugar free
4. Three Muskateers - they have about 45% less fat than other leading candy bars
5. York Peppermint Patties - they have fewer calories and less fat than most candy bar, with 1 patty containing 140 calories and 2.5 grams of fat

Our favorite pick on this list is #5, York Peppermint Patties! They are one of our year round treats, which we highly recommend to put in your freezer and then enjoy.

What is YOUR favorite Halloween candy? We are still HUGE fans of the classic candy corn! What about YOU?
