Halloween treats get healthy
Clark recently saw healthy Halloween treats in the candy aisle at a supermarket. Who really wants to be the Scrooge who ruins the holiday for kids by handing out nutritionally smart treats? Yet there was a recent article in the The Los Angeles Times about the growing healthy Halloween candy trend. Little pretzel packs, Teddy Grahams and even packets of carrots are among the items that some people now hand out. The idea is for kids to have fun without getting rotten teeth. Clark's 8-year-old daughter is usually not able to eat her Halloween candy because she's allergic to nuts. But she gets a Starburst from her mother for every piece she gives up. If you like to give out Halloween candy, make sure you buy a type you don't like -- that way you won't eat the excess! Bring leftovers to work if you can. Clark brings candy to his workplace that he buys after Halloween for 75 percent off! Clark's executive producer Christa thinks you can save leftover candy and use it next Halloween. But even Clark says that giving out stale candy is way too cheap for him! One caller suggested that leftover candy makes a great Christmas stocking stuffer -- and it won't be stale by then either!
