Thanks to everyone who replied about g-f candy for Halloween. I was amazed to
see how many products are said to be safe, and now feel I have needlessly
deprived my daughter in the past. Since Charlie replied to the list with his
long catalogue of g-f candies, I need not summarize them here. But I'll pass
along a few strategies that listmembers generously shared with me in case they
can help any other parents this Friday:
One parent distributes g-f candy in advance to friends and neighbors to be
given to her child when he rings the bell. The child doesn't know, of course.
Some parents keep a stash of g-f candy at home, to be traded for any unsafe
candy the child collects.
Others buy back the unsafe candy for a price per piece that's negotiated in
advance.
Happy Halloween all!
