Welcome to The Middle School Mind Podcast! This podcast gives a voice and an online outlet for my son to talk about (almost) anything and (almost) everything that is on his mind. My son has a variety of interests spanning: Movies, TV, Anime, Books and Theater. I’m here to serve as his co-host, his sounding board, webmaster, audio engineer, and SEO guru so this website and podcast can be seen and heard by someone (aside from his mom). I’m also there to make sure we stick to a relatively coherent train of thought and stick to as close to 20 minutes or less per episode.

2.8 Allergy Safe Halloween Candy Part 2

On this episode of The Middle School Mind, we continue our review of Halloween candies that are safe for kids with peanut and tree nut food allergies. Halloween is a fun time for kids, and since we have family members with severe food allergies, we hand out peanut and tree nut free candies on Halloween.

On this episode, we pull random allergy-safe candy from a hat and we taste test each candy and tell you if we would Keep this candy, Trade this candy or Chuck this candy.

Here are the allergy-friendly candies we review on this episode:

Jolly Rancher Gummies - 2 in 1

Son wants to Keep since he doesn’t think others would want to Trade him for it.
Father feels like it has the consistency of Swedish Fish and sticks to his teeth.
We talk about how people who hand out fruit snacks on Halloween are our heroes!

Goetze’s Bullseye Caramel Creams

This one was a unanimous Keep!
Once you hit the cream center, it was great. It reminded us of the Oreo cream center.
This was a new candy for Son, but Father has enjoyed this for quite some time.
We feel these candies are too small and not enough people hand these candies out on Halloween!

Jolly Rancher Lollipops

Son said this meets his expectations for a Jolly Rancher candy. This is a Keep for him.
Father chose to bite through his lollipop and noted that it was pretty sour.
We talked about how you never see adults walking around sucking on lollipops.

Whoppers

Son liked it, but would Trade this for an upgrade in his Halloween bag.
Father loves Whoppers but too many in one sitting can get too sweet.

Sweet Tarts

Sweet Tarts only had two distinct flavors - the Purple and Green and it was so tart with a bad aftertaste.
Son said this is an automatic Chuck and would never wish this on anyone.

Oreos

It’s great to end Oreos!
This was another unanimous Keep for Father and Son.
Father talks about his Oreo consumption style to combine two Oreos for one Ultra Oreo.

was just our opinion and these candies are safe for Son’s allergies. Please make sure these candies are safe for you based on your specific food allergies.

This was a great episode since we got to eat candy and critique the Halloween candy that we will give out to our neighbors.

We finish the episode talking about middle schoolers and if they still go trick or treating in 7th grade.

Have a very safe and very Happy Halloween everyone!
